Introduction to Coherent States and Quantum Information Theory

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to introduce several basic theorems of coherent states and generalized coherent states based on Lie algebras su(2) and su(1,1), and to give some applications of them to quantum information theory for graduate students or non--experts who are interested in both Geometry and Quantum Information Theory. In the first half we make a general review of coherent states and generalized coherent states based on Lie algebras su(2) and su(1,1) from the geometric point of view and, in particular, prove that each resolution of unity can be obtained by the curvature form of some bundle on the parameter space. In the latter half we apply a method of generalized coherent states to some important topics in Quantum Information Theory, in particular, swap of coherent states and cloning of coherent ones. We construct the swap operator of coherent states by making use of a generalized coherent operator based on su(2) and show an "imperfect cloning" of coherent states, and moreover present some related problems. In conclusion we state our dream, namely, a construction of {\bf Geometric Quantum Information Theory}.

Coherent States and Some Topics in Quantum Information Theory : Review

Kazuyuki Fujii

In the first half we make a short review of coherent states and generalized coherent ones based on Lie algebras su(2) and su(1,1), and the Schwinger's boson method to construct representations of the Lie algebras. In the second half we make a review of recent developments on both swap of coherent states and cloning of coherent states which are important subjects in Quantum Information Theory.

BASIC PROPERTIES OF COHERENT AND GENERALIZED COHERENT OPERATORS REVISITED

In this paper we make a brief review of some basic properties (the matrix elements, the trace, the Glauber formula) of coherent operators and study the corresponding ones for generalized coherent operators based on Lie algebra su(1,1). We also propose some problems.

Geometry of Coherent States : Some Examples of Calculations of Chern-Characters

Kazuyuki Fujii

First we make a brief review of coherent states and prove that the resolution of unity can be obtained by the 1-st Chern character of some bundle. Next we define a Grassmann manifold for a set of coherent states and construct the pull-back bundle making use of a projector from the parameter space to this Grassmann manifold. We study some geometric properties (Chern-characters mainly) of these bundles. Although the calculations of Chern-characters are in general not easy, we can perform them for the special cases. In this paper we report our calculations and propose some interesting problems to be solved in the near future.

SU(2) and SU(1,1) algebra eigenstates: A unified analytic approach to coherent and intelligent states

Brif, C

We introduce the concept of algebra eigenstates which are defined for an arbitrary Lie group as eigenstates of elements of the corresponding complex Lie algebra. We show that this concept unifies different definitions of coherent states associated with a dynamical symmetry group. On the one hand, algebra eigenstates include different sets of Perelomov's generalized coherent states. On the other hand, intelligent states (which are squeezed states for a system of general symmetry) also form a subset of algebra eigenstates. We develop the general formalism and apply it to the SU(2) and SU(1,1) simple Lie groups. Complete solutions to the general eigenvalue problem are found in the both cases, by a method that employs analytic representations of the algebra eigenstates. This analytic method also enables us to obtain exact closed expressions for quantum statistical properties of an arbitrary algebra eigenstate. Important special cases such as standard coherent states and intelligent states are examined and relations between them are studied by using their analytic representations.

On SU(1,1) intelligent coherent states

G. M. Abd Al-Kader, A.‐S. F. Obada

Generalized coherent states associated with SU(1,1) Lie algebra are reviewed. A state is called intelligent if it satisfies the strict equality in the Heisenberg uncertainty relation. The eigenvalue problem satisfied by intelligent states (IS) is solved. The IS associated with SU(1,1) Lie algebra are investigated. We have constructed some realizations for our results of IS, and some applications are discussed. Some nonclassical properties such as Glauber second-order correlation function, photon number distribution and squeezing are investigated.

6. Coherent quantum physics

Arnold Neumaier

Coherent quantum physics is quantum physics in terms of a coherent space and an appropriate coherent product. The kinematical structure and the meaning of the quantities are given by the symmetries (invertible coherent maps) of the coherent space. If Z is a coherent manifold, a canonical symplectic form is often canonically determined by the coherent product through the coherent action principle discussed in Section 6.1. In a quantum mechanical context, Z is indeed a classical phase space or an extended phase space-typically a symplectic manifold, a Poisson manifold, or a circle or line bundle over such a manifold that incorporates the classical action variable (encoding the Berry phase under quantization). For example, the Aharonov-Bohm effect [3] needs the bundle formulation. A coherent space and its quantum space provide a classical and a quantum view of the same physical system, discussed in Section 6.2. Section 6.3 shows that symmetries of coherent spaces can be quantized, that is, promoted to linear operators on the quantum space. This leads to quantum dynamics, which in special (completely integrable) situations can be solved in closed form in terms of classical motions on the underlying coherent space, if the latter has a compatible manifold structure. Close relations to concepts from geometric quantization and Kähler manifolds are pointed out in Section 6.4. In order that the quantum space of a coherent space Z can describe physics, one needs not only a distinguished class of coherent states but a more general concept of state. In Sections 6.5-6.6, we give a general abstract setting for states in Lie ∗-algebras, emphasize the essential mathematical features and the close analogy between classical and quantum physics. We illustrate these generalities with a number of examples in Section 6.7. The coherent action principle is put to use in Section 6.8 for numerical quantum physics and an application to quantum chaos. Spectral issues can, in favorable cases, be handled in terms of dynamical Lie algebras, discussed in Section 6.9.
