Coherent states in the presence of a variable magnetic field

Marius Măntoiu, Radu Purice, Serge Richard

Published Jan 1, 2009• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

Key Words: Coherent state, quantization, magnetic field, magnetic pseudodifferential operators. We introduce magnetic coherent states for a particle in a variable magnetic field. They provide a pure state quantization of the phase space R 2N endowed with a magnetic symplectic form.

Positive quantization in the presence of a variable magnetic field

Marius Măntoiu, Radu Purice, Serge Richard

Starting with a previously constructed family of coherent states, we introduce the Berezin quantization for a particle in a variable magnetic field and we show that it constitutes a strict quantization of a natural Poisson algebra. The phase-space reinterpretation involves a magnetic version of the Bargmann space and leads naturally to Berezin-Toeplitz operators.

Phase operator for a charged particle in a magnetic field

Shlomo Ruschin, J. Žák

A phase operator for a charged particle in a magnetic field is defined by using the classical connection between the angles in the configuration and the velocity planes (both perpendicular to the magnetic field). Coherent states are used for fixing the center of the orbit. The same states are also used in establishing quantization rules for classical functions containing products of quantities that do not commute in quantum mechanics.

The Modulation Mapping for Magnetic Symbols and Operators

Marius Măntoiu, Radu Purice

We extend the Bargmann transform to the magnetic pseudodifferential calculus, using gauge-covariant families of coherent states. We also introduce modulation mappings, a first step towards adapting modulation spaces to the magnetic case.

6. Coherent quantum physics

Arnold Neumaier

Coherent quantum physics is quantum physics in terms of a coherent space and an appropriate coherent product. The kinematical structure and the meaning of the quantities are given by the symmetries (invertible coherent maps) of the coherent space. If Z is a coherent manifold, a canonical symplectic form is often canonically determined by the coherent product through the coherent action principle discussed in Section 6.1. In a quantum mechanical context, Z is indeed a classical phase space or an extended phase space-typically a symplectic manifold, a Poisson manifold, or a circle or line bundle over such a manifold that incorporates the classical action variable (encoding the Berry phase under quantization). For example, the Aharonov-Bohm effect [3] needs the bundle formulation. A coherent space and its quantum space provide a classical and a quantum view of the same physical system, discussed in Section 6.2. Section 6.3 shows that symmetries of coherent spaces can be quantized, that is, promoted to linear operators on the quantum space. This leads to quantum dynamics, which in special (completely integrable) situations can be solved in closed form in terms of classical motions on the underlying coherent space, if the latter has a compatible manifold structure. Close relations to concepts from geometric quantization and Kähler manifolds are pointed out in Section 6.4. In order that the quantum space of a coherent space Z can describe physics, one needs not only a distinguished class of coherent states but a more general concept of state. In Sections 6.5-6.6, we give a general abstract setting for states in Lie ∗-algebras, emphasize the essential mathematical features and the close analogy between classical and quantum physics. We illustrate these generalities with a number of examples in Section 6.7. The coherent action principle is put to use in Section 6.8 for numerical quantum physics and an application to quantum chaos. Spectral issues can, in favorable cases, be handled in terms of dynamical Lie algebras, discussed in Section 6.9.
