Coherency of su(1,1)-Barut–Girardello type and entanglement for spherical harmonics

Hossein Fakhri, Alireza Dehghani

Barut–Girardello coherent states corresponding to the (l−m)- and (l+m)-integer discrete irreducible representations of su(1,1) Lie algebra are calculated by the spherical harmonics Ylm(θ,ϕ). Their explicit compact forms and also, to realize the resolution of the identity, their corresponding positive definite measures on the complex plane are obtained in terms of the known functions. It is also shown that coherent states of both positive and negative representations separately lead us to construct new representation bases for su(1,1) Lie algebra. Then, it is shown that the su(1,1)-Barut–Girardello coherent states corresponding to two particles containing the spatial parity symmetries of a bipartite quantum system can be entangled in ten different ways.

Schwinger-Type Boson Realization for the su(4) Algebra: In Relation to the Description of Many-Fermion Systems in Pairing Correlation

M. Yamamura, A. Kuriyama, Teiji Kunihiro

Considering the present situation of Lie-algebraic studies of high-temperature superconductivity, a Schwinger-type boson realization of the su(4) algebra is investigated. The basic framework comes from a possible form of the su(n) and the su(n,1) algebras in the Schwinger representation, which was recently proposed by two of the present authors (M. Y. & A. K.), together with J. da Providência. The form investigated in this paper is, in some sense, a natural extension of the Schwinger boson representation for the so(5), so(4) and su(2)⊗su(2) algebras, which was also proposed by the present authors. The orthogonal set for the irreducible representation of the su(4) algebra is completely analogous to that expressed in terms of fermion operators for pairing correlation.

Bosonic Representation of Matrices and Angular Momentum Probabilistic Representation of Cyclic States

Julio A. López-Saldívar, Olga V. Man’ko, Margarita A. Man’ko +1 more

The Jordan–Schwinger map allows us to go from a matrix representation of any arbitrary Lie algebra to an oscillator (bosonic) representation. We show that any Lie algebra can be considered for this map by expressing the algebra generators in terms of the oscillator creation and annihilation operators acting in the Hilbert space of quantum oscillator states. Then, to describe quantum states in the probability representation of quantum oscillator states, we express their density operators in terms of conditional probability distributions (symplectic tomograms) or Husimi-like probability distributions. We illustrate this general scheme by examples of qubit states (spin-1/2 su(2)-group states) and even and odd Schrödinger cat states related to the other representation of su(2)-algebra (spin-j representation). The two-mode coherent-state superpositions associated with cyclic groups are studied, using the Jordan–Schwinger map. This map allows us to visualize and compare different properties of the mentioned states. For this, the su(2) coherent states for different angular momenta j are used to define a Husimi-like Q representation. Some properties of these states are explicitly presented for the cyclic groups C2 and C3. Also, their use in quantum information and computing is mentioned.
