Abstract

While dealing with the J -matrix method for the harmonic oscillator to write down its tridiagonal matrix representation in an orthonormal basis of L 2 ( R ) , we rederive a set of generalized coherent states (GCS) of Perelomov type labelled by points z of the complex plane C and depending on an integer number m ∈ Z + . The number states expansion of these GCS gives rise to coefficients that are complex Hermite polynomials and whose linear superpositions provide eigenfunctions for the two-dimensional magnetic Laplacian, associated with the m th Landau level. We further generalize this construction to the Morse oscillator by introducing a new set of Glauber-type GCS.

Hashim A. Yamani, Zouhaı̈r Mouayn

While dealing with the J-Matrix method for the harmonic oscillator to write down its tridiagonal matrix representation in an orthonormal basis of L2(R); we rederive a set of generalized coherent states (GCS) of Perelomov type labeled by points z of the complex plane C and depending on a positive integer number m The number states expansion of these GCS gives rise to coefficients that are complex Hermite polynomials whose linear superpositions provide eigenfunctions for the two-dimensional magnetic Laplacian associated with the mth Landau level. We extend this procedure to the Morse oscillator by constructing a new set of GCS of Glauber type.

An algebraic construction of the coherent states of the Morse potential based on SUSY QM

Balázs Molnár, M. G. Benedict

By introducing the shape invariant Lie algebra spanned by the SUSY ladder operators plus the unity operator, a new basis is presented for the quantum treatment of the one-dimensional Morse potential. In this discrete, complete orthonormal set, which we call the pseudo number states, the Morse Hamiltonian is tridiagonal. By using this basis we construct coherent states algebraically for the Morse potential, in a close analogy with the harmonic oscillator. We also show that there exists an unitary displacement operator creating these coherent states from the ground state. We show that our coherent states form a continuous and overcomplete set of states. They coincide with a class of states constructed earlier by Nieto and Simmons by using the coordinate representation. \pacs{3.65.Fd, 02.20.Sv, 42.50.-p}

Spin coherent states with monopole harmonics on the Riemann sphere for the Kravchuk oscillator

Zouhaı̈r Mouayn

We consider a class of generalized spin coherent states by choosing the labeling coefficients to be monopole harmonics.The latters are L2 eigenstates of the mth spherical Landau level on the Riemann sphere with m in Z+. We verify that the Klauder minimum properties for these states to be considered as coherent states are satisfied. We particularize them for the case of the Kravchuk oscillator and we obtain explicite expression for their wave functions.The associated coherent states transforms provide us with a Bargmann-type representation for the states of the oscillator Hilbert space. For the lowest level m = 0 indexing monopole harmonics, we identify the obtained coherent states to be those of Klauder-Perelomov type which were constructed in Ref.J. Math. Phys. 48, 112106 (2007)

Zernike polynomials from the tridiagonalization of the radial harmonic oscillator in displaced Fock states

Hashim A. Yamani, Zouhaı̈r Mouayn

We revisit the J-matrix method for the one dimensional radial harmonic oscillator (RHO) and construct its tridiagonal matrix representation within an orthonormal basis phi(z)n of L2 (R+);parametrized by a fixed z in the complex unit disc D and n = 0,1,2,.... Remarkably, for fixed n,and varying z in D, the system phi(z)n forms a family of Perelomov-type coherent states associated with the RHO. For each fixed n, the expansion of phi(z)n over the basis (fs) of eigenfunctions of the RHO yields coefficients cn,s(z; z) precisely given by two-dimensional complex Zernike polynomials. The key insight is that the algebraic tridiagonal structure of RHO contains the complete information about the bound state solutions of the two-dimensional Schrödinger operator describing a charged particle in a magnetic field (of strength proportional to B > 1/2) on the Poincaré disc D.

Generalized complex Hermite polynomials with associated nonlinear coherent states

Khalid Ahbli, Fouzia El Wassouli, Zouhaı̈r Mouayn

While dealing with a class of generalized complex Hermite polynomials, we discuss some of their basic properties and we give operational formulae of Burchnall-type. New results, including a Nielsen identity, a generating function and a Runge addition formula are derived. These polynomials may also be used to define a set of nonlinear coherent states for the harmonic oscillator. They may also be viewed as eigenfunctions of a Landau-type operator.

Algebraic construction of the coherent states of the Morse potential based on supersymmetric quantum mechanics

M. G. Benedict, Balázs Molnár

By introducing the shape-invariant Lie algebra spanned by the supersymmetric ladder operators plus the identity operator, we generate a discrete complete orthonormal basis for the quantum treatment of the one-dimensional Morse potential. In this basis, which we call the pseudo-number-states, the Morse Hamiltonian is tridiagonal. Then we construct algebraically the continuous overcomplete set of coherent states for the Morse potential in close analogy with the harmonic oscillator. These states coincide with a class of states constructed earlier by Nieto and Simmons [Phys. Rev. D 20, 1342 (1979)] by using the coordinate representation. We also give the unitary displacement operator creating these coherent states from the ground state.
