MATRIX ELEMENTS OF THE JACOBI GROUP
Stefan Berceanu, Andrei H Gheorghe
The Jacobi group the semidirect product of the Heisenberg group and the symplectic group [1–3] is an important object in quantum mechanics, geometric quantization, optics [4–6]. The Jacobi group is responsible for the squeezed states [7–12] in quantum optics [5], [6], [13], [14]. Some coherent state systems based on SiegelJacobi domains [15], [16] have been investigated in the framework of quantum mechanics, geometric quantization, dequantization, quantum optics, nuclear structure, and signal processing [17], [18], [19], [20][23]. We have attached in [20] Perelomov’s coherent states [24] to the Jacobi group G1∗= H1(R)nSU(1,1), based on the Siegel-Jacobi disk D1 =C×D1, where D1 = {z ∈ C||z| . ez ∈ H denotes the Perelomov coherent state vector indexed by the points z of the homogeneous manifold M = G/H , where H is compact subgroup of G. The generalized squeezed states of the type introduced in [22], [23], [25] are not new [8, 26, 27]. The paper is organized as follows. §2 collects the main notation concerning
