The exciton system is described by means of specially constructed coherent states (CS), according to an idea of L.V. Keldysh long ago. The system is analyzed from the geometric point of view and from the relevant symmetry group contained in the displacement operator as generador of the CS system in the Klauder–Perelomov sense. Explicitly important quantities involving the quantum statistics of the system (partition function, mean density n and the Yuen limit) are calculated and briefly discussed in relation to the known case of pure bosons (e.g. photons). The Bogoliubov type transformations for the field operators of the Wannier–Mott type exciton system are presented in an exact way (in sharp contrast with the case of [11] where only a rough approximation was given) showing how these transformations induce nonlinearity (cubic at first order) in the Schrodinger equation of the system. The conditions for a hydrodynamic description of the original Keldysh model, as the possibility of a BEC (Bose–Einstein Condensation), are discussed.

In previous work [1] new bounded coherent states construction, based on a Keldysh conjecture, was introduced. As was shown in [1] the particular group structure arising from the model leads to new symmetry transformations for the coherent states system. As was shown, the emergent new symmetry transformation is reminiscent of the Bogoliubov ones and was successfully applied to describe an excitonic system showing that is intrinsically related to the stability and its general physical behavior. The group theoretical structure of the model permits to analyze its thermal properties in theoretical frameworks that arise as a consequence of the definition of the squeezed-coherent states as transformed vacua under the automorphism group of the commutation relations, as the thermofield dynamics case given by Umezawa and other similar developments [5]. On the other hand, the idea of a possible Bose--Einstein condensation (BEC) of excitons in semiconductors has attracted the attention of both experimentalists and theoreticians for more than three decades being one of the main questions what happens with the influence of non zero temperature in the case that such condensation really exists [2]. In this paper we considered the theoretical treatment of the excitonic behaviour by mean a new coherent state construction of bounded states in a quantum field theoretical context.
New bounded coherent state construction, based in a Keldysh conjecture, is presented. The particular group structure arising from the model leads a new symmetry transformations for the coherent state system. The emergent new symmetry transformations are reminiscent of the Bogoliubov ones. This construction is applied to describe an excitonic system. We discuss how the symmetry of these transformations is intrinsically related with the stability and the behavior of the physical systems as in the excitonic case.
We summarize some crucial results from mathematical models that help us understand the relevance of gener-alized coherent states (GCS), a fundamental method used for the description of non-linear problems in physics. We mainly concentrate our review in the following models: ferromagnetism, nonlinear Schr¨odinger equation with external potential, nonlinear quantum oscillators, Bose - Einstein condensation (BEC) and the DNA quasi-spin model. Such models and some applications of the wide variety these involve are outlined. As variational trial states, the coherent states (CS) allow the estimation of the ground state energies and properties, yielding results which become exact in a number of nonlinear differential equations for dynamical variable of each model. Mainly we concentrate our review on two types of coherent states, The first one are based on the Heisenberg - Weyl group where it is applied the bosonization effect. The second one is based on the SU(2)/U(1) Lie group. For this case when the Hamiltonian and all physical operators are constructed by the elements of a Lie algebra, the generalized coherent states approach is directly applied without bozonization.
The concept of coherent states for a quantum system has been generalized in many different ways. One elegant way is the dynamical group approach. The subject of this thesis is the physical application of some dynamical group methods in quantum optics and Bose-Einstein Condensation(BEC) and their use in generalizing some quantum optical states and BEC states. We start by generalizing squeezed coherent states to the displaced squeezed phase number states and studying the signal-to-quantum noise ratio for these states. Following a review of the properties of Kerr states and the basic theory of the deformation of the boson algebra, we present an algebraic approach to Kerr states and generalize them to the squeezed states of the q-parametrized harmonic oscillator. Using the eigenstates of a nonlinear density-dependent annihilation operator of the deformed boson algebra, we propose general time covariant coherent states for any time-independent quantum system. Using the ladder operator approach similar to that of binomial states, we construct interpolating number-coherent states, intermediate states which are generalizations of some fundamental states in quantum optics. Salient statistical properties and non-classical features of these interpolating numbercoherent states are investigated and the interaction with an atomic system in the framework of the Jaynes-Cummings model and the scheme to produce these states are also studied in detail. After briefly reviewing the realization of Bose-Einstein Condensates and relevant theoretical research using mean-field theory, we present a dynamical group approach to Bose-Einstein condensation and the atomic tunnelling between two condensates which interact via a minimal coupling term. First we consider the spectrum of one Bose-Einstein condensate and show that the mean-field dynamics is characterised by the semi-direct product of the 8U(1,1) and Heisenberg-Weyl groups.We then construct a generalized version of the BEC ground states and weakly excited states. It is shown that our states for BEC provide better fits to the experimental results. Then we investigate the tunnelling between the excitations in two condensates which interact via a minimal coupling term. The dynamics of the two interacting Bose systems is characterised by the 80(3,2) group, which leads to an exactly solvable model. Further we describe the dynamics of the tunnelling of the two coupled condensates in terms of the semi-direct product of 80(3,2) and two independent Heisenberg-Weyl groups. From this we obtain the energy spectrum and eigenstates for the two interacting Bose-Einstein condensates, as well as the Josephson current between the two coupled condensates.
We analyze the mean-field equilibrium states of a homogeneous Bose-Einstein condensate of boson particles in different internal states, possibly in the presence of an internal Josephson interaction, and we describe the quantum fluctuations by constructing an explicit form of the Bogoliubov transformation that characterizes the quasiparticle excitations of the system. The derivation of the Bogoliubov transformation is based on a simple geometrical picture which leads to a convenient parametrization of the transformation. Our calculations of physical properties, such as depletions and phonon velocities, as well as our discussion of stability, indicate the sense and the extent to which the internal Josephson interaction controls the many-body physics of multicomponent phase coherent matter.
The Bogoliubov Model of the Weakly Nonideal Bose Gas In this chapter we review the basic theory of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of excitons. To start, this means we must review the basic theory of BEC of any kind of particle, the theory known as the Bogoliubov model, after the foundational contributions made by N. N. Bogoliubov. This model introduces all the strange things associated with BEC: spontaneous symmetry breaking, off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO), macroscopic occupation of a single quantum state, etc. It is often said that physicists who spend years studying quantum mechanics eventually warp their intuition so much that things like ODLRO seem normal. It is well worth stepping back every now and then to think about just how strange a Bose condensate is. First, consider the idea of spontaneous symmetry breaking. Many systems exist in which the underlying physics, expressed in the Hamiltonian, do not favor one state over another. The a priori probability of occupation of the different states by a particle is equal, i.e., symmetric. Nevertheless, in some cases, thermodynamics requires that a macroscopic number of particles must somehow “choose” one of the states preferentially. If they did not, the system would not be in equilibrium, i.e, could not have a definable temperature. If the particles preferentially choose one state, then the underlying symmetry has been broken. In the context of magnets, the breaking of the symmetry of the magnet (to have all its constituent dipoles lined up one way and not another) is energetically favored, since there are terms in the Hamiltonian that give lower energy for aligned dipoles, e.g., μS 1 · S 2 .
