Integrals of motion and Robertson-Schrödinger correlated states of electromagnetic field in time-dependent linear media

Integrals of motion and statistical properties of quantized electromagnetic field (e.-m. field) in time-dependent linear dielectric and conductive media are considered, using Choi-Yeon quantization, based on Caldirola-Kanai type Hamiltonian. Eigenstates of quadratic and linear invariants are constructed, the solutions being expressed in terms of a complex parametric function that obeys classical oscillator equation with time-varying frequency. The time evolutions of initial Glauber coherent states and Fock states are considered. The medium conductivity and the time-dependent electric permeability are shown to generate squeezing and non-vanishing covariances. In the time-evolved coherent and squeezed states all the second statistical moments of the electric and magnetic field components are calculated and shown to mminimize the Robertson-Schrödinger uncertainty relation.

Nonlinear Fermions and Coherent States

Nonlinear fermions of degree $n$ ($n$-fermions) are introduced as particles with creation and annihilation operators obeying the simple nonlinear anticommutation relation $AA^\dagger + {A^\dagger}^n A^n = 1$. The ($n+1$)-order nilpotency of these operators follows from the existence of unique $A$-vacuum. Supposing appropreate ($n+1$)-order nilpotent para-Grassmann variables and integration rules the sets of $n$-fermion number states, 'right' and 'left' ladder operator coherent states (CS) and displacement-operator-like CS are constructed. The $(n+1)\times(n+1)$ matrix realization of the related para-Grassmann algebra is provided. General $(n+1)$-order nilpotent ladder operators of finite dimensional systems are expressed as polynomials in terms of $n$-fermion operators. Overcomplete sets of (normalized) 'right' and 'left' eigenstates of such general ladder operators are constructed and their properties briefly discussed.

Nonlinear n-Pseudo Fermions

Nonlinear pseudo-fermions of degree n (n-pseudo-fermions) are introduced as (pseudo) particles with creation and annihilation operators $a$ and $b$, $b \neq a^\dagger$, obeying the simple nonlinear anticommutation relation $ab + b^n a^n = 1$. The (n+1)-order nilpotency of these operators follows from the existence of unique (up to a bi-normalization factor) $a$-vacuum. Supposing appropriate (n+1)-order nilpotent para-Grassmann variables and integration rules the sets of n-pseudo-fermion number states, and 'right' and 'left' ladder operator bi-overcomplete sets of coherent states are constructed. Explicit examples of n-pseudo-fermion ladder operators are provided, and the relation of pseudo-fermions to finite-level pseudo-Hermitian systems is briefly considered.

Fermion Coherence Hamiltonians

We have established that the most general form of Hamiltonian that preserves fermionic coherent states stable in time, is that of the nonstationary free fermionic oscillator. This is to be compared with the earlier result of boson coherence Hamiltonian, which is of the more general form of the nonstationary forced bosonic oscillator. If however one admits Grassmann variables as Hamiltonian parameters then the coherence Hamiltonian takes again the form of (Grassmannian fermionic) forced oscillator.

On the Uncertainty Relations in Stochastic Mechanics

It is shown that the Bohm equations for the phase $S$ and squared modulus $ρ$ of the quantum mechanical wave function can be derived from the classical ensemble equations admiting an aditional momentum $p_s$ of the form proportional to the osmotic velocity in the Nelson stochastic mechanics and using the variational principle with appropriate change of variables. The possibility to treat grad$S$ and $p_s$ as two parts of the momentum of quantum ensemble particles is considered from the view point of uncertainty relations of Robertson - Schroedinger type on the examples of the stochastic image of quantum mechanical canonical coherent and squeezed states.

Invariants and Coherent States for Nonstationary Fermionic Forced Oscillator

The most general form of Hamiltonian that preserves fermionic coherent states stable in time is found in the form of nonstationary fermion oscillator. Invariant creation and annihilation operators and related Fock states and coherent states are built up for the more general system of nonstationary forced fermion oscillator.

Fermionic coherent states for pseudo-Hermitian two-level systems

We introduce creation and annihilation operators of pseudo-Hermitian fermions for two-level systems described by pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian with real eigenvalues. This allows the generalization of the fermionic coherent states approach to such systems. Pseudo-fermionic coherent states are constructed as eigenstates of two pseudo-fermion annihilation operators. These coherent states form a bi-normal and bi-overcomplete system, and their evolution governed by the pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian is temporally stable. In terms of the introduced pseudo-fermion operators the two-level system' Hamiltonian takes a factorized form similar to that of a harmonic oscillator.

Pseudo-Boson Coherent and Fock States

Coherent states (CS) for non-Hermitian systems are introduced as eigenstates of pseudo-Hermitian boson annihilation operators. The set of these CS includes two subsets which form bi-normalized and bi-overcomplete system of states. The subsets consist of eigenstates of two complementary lowering pseudo-Hermitian boson operators. Explicit constructions are provided on the example of one-parameter family of pseudo-boson ladder operators. The wave functions of the eigenstates of the two complementary number operators, which form a bi-orthonormal system of Fock states, are found to be proportional to new polynomials, that are bi-orthogonal and can be regarded as a generalization of standard Hermite polynomials.

On the 'Polarized distances between quantum states and observables'

The scheme for construction of distances, presented in the previous paper quant-ph/0005087, v.1 (Ref. 1) is amended. The formulation of Proposition 1 of Ref. 1 does not ensure the triangle inequality, therefore some of the functionals D(a,b) in Ref. 1 are in fact quasi-distances. In this note we formulate sufficient conditions for a functional D(a,b) of the (squared) form D(a,b)^2 = f(a)^2 + f(b)^2 - 2f(a)f(b)g(a,b) to be a distance and provide some examples of such distances. A one parameter generalization of a bounded distance of the (squared) form D(a,b)^2 = D_0^2 (1 - g(a,b)), which includes the known Bures-Uhlmann and Hilbert-Schmidt distances between quantum states, is established.

Geometric Quantization, Coherent States and Stochastic Measurements

The geometric quantization problem is considered from the point of view of the Davies and Lewis approach to quantum mechanics. The influence of the measuring device is accounted in the classical and quantum case and it is shown that the conditions of the measurement define the type of quantization (Weyl, normal, antinormal, etc.). The quantum states and quantum operators are obtained by means of the projection, defined from the system of generalized coherent states.

On the Dynamics of Generalized Coherent States. I. Exact and Stable Evolution

The exact and stable evolutions of generalized coherent states (GCS) for quantum systems are considered by making use of the time-dependent integrals of motion method and of the Klauder approach to the relationship between quantum and classical mechanics. It is shown that one can construct for any quantum system overcomplete family of states (OFS), related to the unitary representations of the Lie group G by means of integral of motion generators, and the possibility of using this group as a dynamical symmetry group is pointed out. The relation of the OFS with quantum measurement theory is also established.

On the Dynamics of Generalized Coherent States. II. Classical Equations of Motions

Using the Klauder approach the stable evolution of generalized coherent states (GCS) for some groups (SU(2), SU(1,1) and SU(N)) is considered and it is shown that one and the same classical solution z(t) can correctly characterize the quantum evolution of many different (in general nonequivalent) systems. As examples some concrete systems are treated in greater detail: it is obtained that the nonstationary systems of the singular oscillator, of the particle motion in a magnetic field, and of the oscillator with friction all have stable SU(1,1) GCS whose quantum evolution is determined by one and the same classical function z(t). The physical properties of the constructed SU(1,1) GCS are discussed and it is shown particularly that in the case of discrete series D_k^+ they are those states for which the quantum mean values coincide with the statistical ones for an oscillator in a thermostat.

Position Uncertainty Measures on the Sphere

Position uncertainty (delocalization) measures for a particle on the sphere are proposed and illustrated on several examples of states. The new measures are constructed using suitably the standard multiplication angle operator variances. They are shown to depend solely on the state of the particle and to obey uncertainty relations of the Schroedinger--Robertson type. A set of Hermitian operators with continuous spectrum is pointed out the variances of which are complementary to the longitudinal angle uncertainty measure.

On the position uncertainty measure on the circle

New position uncertainty (delocalization) measures for a particle on the circle are proposed and illustrated on several examples, where the previous measures (based on 2pi-periodic position operators) appear to be unsatisfactory. The new measures are suitably constructed using the standard multiplication angle operator variances. They are shown to depend solely on the state of the particle and to obey uncertainty relations of the Schroedinger-Robertson type.

Comment on "On the uncertainty relations and squeezed states for the quantum mechanics on a circle"

It is shown by examples that the position uncertainty on a circle, proposed recently by Kowalski and Rembieliński [J. Phys. A 35 (2002) 1405] is not consistent with the state localization. We argue that the relevant uncertainties and uncertainty relations (UR's) on a circle are that based on the Gram-Robertson matrix. Several of these generalized UR's are displayed and related criterions for squeezed states are discussed.

Schroedinger uncertainty relation and its minimization states

An introductory survey on the Schroedinger uncertainty relation and its minimization states is presented with minimal number of formulas and some historical points. The case of the two canonical observables, position and momentum, is discussed in greater detail: basic properties of the two subsets of minimization states (canonical squeezed and coherent states) are reviewed and compared. The case of two non-canonical observables is breafly outlined. Stanfard SU(1,1) and SU(2) group-related coherent states can be defined as states that minimize Schroedinger inequality for the three pairs of generators simultaneously. The symmetry of the Heisenberg and Schroedinger relations is also discussed, and two natural generalizations to the cases of several observables and several states are noted.
