Statistical Properties and Algebraic Characteristics of Quantum Superpositions of Negative Binomial States

Abstract

We introduce new kinds of states of quantized radiation fields, which are the superpositions of negative binomial states. They exhibit remarkable non-classical properties and reduce to Schrödinger cat states in a certain limit. The algebras involved in the even and odd negative binomial states turn out to be generally deformed oscillator algebras. It is found that the even and odd negative binomial states satisfy a same eigenvalue equation with a same eigenvalue and they can be viewed as two-photon nonlinear coherent states. Two methods of generating such states are proposed.

Quantum Superpositions of Binomial States of Light

A. Vidiella-Barranco, José Antonio Roversi

We introduce new kinds of states of electromagnetic field, which are quantum superpositions of binomial states. They not only exhibit remarkable non-classical properties but can also interpolate between the ‘Schrödinger cat’ type of states and the number states in a particularly interesting way. We basically discuss some of their main statistical properties, as well as schemes for their generation. We also employ quasiprobability distributions in phase space.

Non-classical properties and algebraic characteristics of negative binomial states in quantized radiation fields

Wang, X G, Pan, S H, Yang Guo Zhen

We study the non-classical properties and algebraic characteristics of the negative binomial states introduced by Barnett recently. The ladder operator formalism and displacement operator formalism of the negative binomial states are found and the algebra involved turns out to be the SU(1,1) Lie algebra via the generalized Holstein-Primarkoff realization. These states are essentially Peremolov's SU(1,1) coherent states. We reveal their connection with the geometric states and find that they are excited geometric states. As intermediate states, they interpolate between the number states and geometric states. We also point out that they can be recognized as the nonlinear coherent states. Their non-classical properties, such as sub-Poissonian distribution and squeezing effect are discussed. The quasiprobability distributions in phase space, namely the Q and Wigner functions, are studied in detail.

Some statistical properties of the even and the odd negative binomial states

Amitabh Joshi, A.‐S. F. Obada

New states of electromagnetic field, i.e. even and odd negative binomial states are introduced here. These states interpolate between the even (odd) coherent states and the even (odd) quasi-thermal states. Various statistical properties of these states such as the mean photon number, second-order coherence function, normal squeezing are calculated. The Wigner function for these states are also discussed. These results may be useful for carrying out systematic study of the non-classical properties of `Schrödinger cat states' as one moves from even (odd) coherent state to even (odd) quasi-thermal state.

Pólya states of quantized radiation fields, their algebraic characterization and non-classical properties

Hong-Chen Fu

Pólya states of a single-mode radiation field are proposed and their algebraic characterization and non-classical properties are investigated. They degenerate to the binomial (atomic coherent) and negative binomial (Perelomov's su(1,1) coherent) states in two different limits and further to the number, the ordinary coherent and Susskind - Glogower phase states. The algebra involved turns out to be a two-parameter deformation of both su(2) and su(1,1). Non-classical properties are investigated in detail.
