Construction of coherent states for physical algebraic systems

Abstract

We construct a general state which is an eigenvector of the annihilation operator of the generalized Heisenberg algebra. We show, for several systems characterized by different energy spectra, that this general state satisfies the minimal set of conditions required to obtain Klauder's minimal coherent states.

Ladder operators and coherent states for continuous spectra

Joseph Ben Geloun, John R. Klauder

The notion of ladder operators is introduced for systems with continuous spectra. We identify two different kinds of annihilation operators allowing the definition of coherent states as modified 'eigenvectors' of these operators. Axioms of Gazeau–Klauder are maintained throughout the construction.

Degenerate discrete energy spectra and associated coherent states

L. Dello Sbarba, Véronique Hussin

Generalized and Gaussian coherent states constructed for quantum system with degeneracies in the energy spectrum are compared with respect to some minimal definitions and fundamental properties they have to satisfy. The generalized coherent states must be eigenstates of a certain annihilation operator that has to be properly defined in the presence of degeneracies. The Gaussian coherent states are, in the particular harmonic oscillator case, an approximation of the generalized coherent states and so the localizability in phase space of the particle in those states is very good. For other quantum systems, this last property serves as a definition of those Gaussian coherent states. The example of a particle in a two-dimensional square box is thus revisited having in mind the preceding definitions of generalized and Gaussian coherent states and also the preservation of the important property known as the resolution of the identity operator.

Generalized Coherent States Representation

R. Sh. Kalmetev, Yu. N. Orlov, Vsevolod Zhanovich Sakbaev

Abstract The properties of the system of eigenvectors of the annihilation operator are investigated for the case of non-classical commutation relations between the operators of creation and annihilation. The existence of a measure on the set of eigenvalues of the annihilation operator is proved, with respect to which coherent states form a generalized crowded system. Formulas of covariant symbols of vectors and operators in the representation of generalized coherent states are obtained. It is shown that, similarly to the classical boson case, generalized coherent states are states with minimal uncertainty.

General sets of coherent states and the Jaynes$ndash$Cummings model

Mohammed Daoud A, Véronique Hussin

General sets of coherent states are constructed for quantum systems admitting a nondegenerate infinite discrete energy spectrum. They are eigenstates of an annihilation operator and satisfy the usual properties of standard coherent states. The application of such a construction to the quantum optics Jaynes–Cummings model leads to a new understanding of the properties of this model.

Nilpotent Morse algebra and time evolution of certain associated coherent states

Abdessamad Belfakir, Y. Hassouni

We provide the time evolutions of the linear and nonlinear coherent states for several systems characterized by different energy spectra, and we identify the regions in the parameter space where these systems behave closer to the classical systems. The Morse system is algebraically found within the frame of generalized Heisenberg algebra(GHA). We demonstrate that this system is described by a nilpotency condition. Then, we propose a construction of coherent states for the Morse oscillator.

Coherent Schwartz distributions of the Heisenberg algebra and inverted oscillator

E. M. Novikova

An unusual family of generalized coherent states of the Heisenberg algebra is constructed. It consists of two families of functionals on the Schwartz space. Each of them has the key properties of ordinary coherent states: it intertwines the representations of a given algebra, has the completeness property, and minimizes the product of variances in the Heisenberg relation. However, unlike the usual coherent states that are eigenstates for the annihilation operator, the constructed distributions belong to the continuous spectrum of Hermitian generators of the Heisenberg algebra. The inner product of functionals from different families has the main properties of the overlap function of ordinary coherent states: it is continuous in parameters, satisfies the reproducing identity, and has the corresponding geometric meaning. The application of unusual coherent states of the continuous spectrum is demonstrated by an example of solving the spectral problem for an inverted oscillator.
