Generating Hermite polynomial excited squeezed states by means of conditional measurements on a beam splitter

A scheme for conditional generating a Hermite polynomial excited squeezed vacuum states (HESVS) is proposed. Injecting a two-mode squeezed vacuum state (TMSVS) into a beam splitter (BS) and counting the photons in one of the output channels, the conditional state in the other output channel is just a HESVS. To exhibit a number of nonclassical effects and non-Guassianity, we mainly investigate the photon number distribution, sub-Poissonian distribution, quadrature component distribution, and quasi-probability distribution of the HPESVS. We find that its nonclassicality closely relates to the control parameter of the BS, the squeezed parameter of the TMSVS, and the photon number of conditional measurement. These further demonstrate that performing the conditional measurement on a BS is an effective approach to generate non-Guassian state.

Conditions for plasma evolution to the\ strong general Woltjer-Taylor state

We find that the proof in the recent paper$\textsuperscript{\cite{14}}$ can not justify the authors' conclusion. We provide a real proof that any state will eventually evolves to the Woltjer-Taylor state exponentially. However, this kind of evolution is is mainly due to Joule heat, which also makes the magnetic field vanishes exponentially. Zero Woltjer-Taylor states are not physically attractive. Instead of examine $Δ$, we introduce the quantity $θ_{\nabla \times \vec{B},\vec{B}}$ and $R$ to examine if the plasma reaches to the strong (general) Woltjer-Taylor state, and then derive the condition for the evolution to the strong/general Woltjer-Taylor state.

Entropy evolution law in a laser process

For the first time, we obtain the entropy variation law in a laser process after finding the Kraus operator of the master equation describing the laser process with the use of the entangled state representation. The behavior of entropy is determined by the competition of the gain and damping in the laser process. The photon number evolution formula is also obtained.

Entangled state representation for deriving new operator identities regarding to two-variable Hermite polynomial

In this paper, by virtue of the entangled state representation we concisely derive some new operator identities regarding to two-variable Hermite polynomial (TVHP). By them and the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators we further derive new generating function formulas of TVHP. They are useful in quantum optical theoretical calculations. It is seen from this work that by combining the IWOP technique and quantum mechanical representations one can derive some new integration formulas even without really performing the integration.

A new quantum mechanical photon counting distribution formula

By virtue of density operator's P-representation in the coherent state representation, we derive a new quantum mechanical photon counting distribution formula. As its application, we find the photon counting distribution for the pure squeezed state relates to the Legendre function, which seems a new result.

Quantum mechanical photon-count formula derived by entangled state representation

By introducing the thermo entangled state representation, we derived four new photocount distribution formulas for a given density operator of light field. It is shown that these new formulas, which is convenient to calculate the photocount, can be expressed as such integrations over Laguree-Gaussian function with characteristic function, Wigner function, Q-function, and P-function, respectively.

Quantum Optical Version of Classical Optical Transformations and Beyond

By the newly developed technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators, we explore quantum optical version of classical optical transformations such as optical Fresnel transform, Hankel transform, fractional Fourier transform, Wigner transform, wavelet transform and Fresnel-Hadmard combinatorial transform etc. In this way one may gain benefit for developing classical optics theory from the research in quantum optics, or vice-versa. We can not only find some new quantum mechanical unitary operators which correspond to the known optical transformations, deriving a new theorem for calculating quantum tomogram of density operators, but also can reveal some new classical optical transformations. We derive GFO's normal product form and its canonical coherent state representation and find that GFO is the loyal representation of symplectic group multiplication rule. We show that GFT is just the transformation matrix element of GFO in the coordinate representation such that two successive GFTs is still a GFT. The ABCD rule of the Gaussian beam propagation is directly demonstrated in the context of quantum optics. Especially, the introduction of quantum mechanical entangled state representations opens up a new area to finding new classical optical transformations. The complex wavelet transform and the condition of mother wavelet are studied in the context of quantum optics too. Throughout our discussions, the coherent state, the entangled state representation of the two-mode squeezing operators and the IWOP technique are fully used. All these confirms Dirac's assertion: " ... for a quantum dynamic system that has a classical analogue, unitary transformation in the quantum theory is the analogue of contact transformation in the classical theory".

New 3-mode squeezing operator and squeezed vacuum state in 3-wave mixing

In a 3-wave mixing process occurring in some nonlinear optical medium when }$a_{1}^{\dagger}${\small mode interacts with both }$a_{2}^{\dagger}% ${\small mode and }$a_{3}^{\dagger}${\small mode, we theoretically study the squeezing effect generated by the operator }$S_{3}\equiv \exp[μ(a_{1}% a_{2}-a_{1}^{\dagger}a_{2}^{\dagger})+ν(a_{1}a_{3}-a_{1}^{\dagger}% a_{3}^{\dagger})]${\small . The new 3-mode squeezed vacuum state in Fock space is derived, and the uncertainty relation for it is demonstrated, It turns out that }$S_{3}${\small may exhibit enhanced squeezing. By virtue of the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators, we also derive }$S_{3}${\small 's normally ordered expansion. The Wigner function of new 3-mode squeezed vacuum state is calculated by using the Weyl ordering invariance under similar transformations.

Entanglement and nonlocality of one- and two-mode combination squeezed state

We investigate the entanglement and nonlocality properties of one- and two-mode combination squeezed vacuum state (OTCSS, with two-parameter lamda and gamma) by analyzing the logarithmic negativity and the Bell's inequality. It is found that this state exhibits larger entanglement than that of the usual two-mode squeezed vacuum state (TSVS), and that in a certain regime of lamda, the violation of Bell's inequality becomes more obvious, which indicates that the nonlocality of OTCSS can be stronger than that of TSVS. As an application of OTCSS, the quantum teleportaion is examined, which shows that there is a region spanned by lamda and gamma in which the fidelity of OTCSS channel is larger than that of TSVS.

Laguerre-Gaussian modes: entangled state representation and generalized Wigner transform in quantum optics

By introducing a new entangled state representation, we show that the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) mode is just the wave function of the common eigenvector of the orbital angular momentum and the total photon number operators of 2-d oscillator, which can be generated by 50:50 beam splitter with the phase difference phi=Pi/2ϕ between the reflected and transmitted fields. Based on this and using the Weyl ordering invariance under similar transforms, the Wigner representation of LG is directly obtained, which can be considered as the generalized Wigner transform of Hermite Gaussian modes.

Infinite operator-sum representation of density operator for a dissipative cavity with Kerr medium derived by virtue of entangled state representation

By using the thermo entangled state representation we solve the master equation for a dissipative cavity with Kerr medium to obtain density operators' infinite operator-sum representation}$ρ(t) =\sum_{m,n,l=0}^{\infty}M_{m,n,l}ρ_{0}\mathcal{M}_{m,n,l}^{\dagger}.$ It is noticeable that}$M_{m,n,l}$ is not hermite conjugate to $\mathcal{M}_{m,n,l}^{\dagger}$, nevertheless the normalization}$\sum_{m,n,l=0}^{\infty}\mathcal{M}_{nm,,l}^{\dagger}M_{m,n,l}=1$ still holds}, i.e., they are trace-preserving in a general sense. This example may stimulate further studying if general superoperator theory needs modification.

Relation between Optical Fresnel transformation and quantum tomography in two-mode entangled case

Similar in spirit to the preceding work [Opt. Commun. 282 (2009) 3734] where the relation between optical Fresnel transformation and quantum tomography is revealed, we study this kind of relationship in the two-mode entangled case. We show that under the two-mode Fresnel transformation the bipartite entangled state density |eta> _{r,s} = . Similarly, we find a simial conclusion in the `frequency` domain.

Entangled Husimi distribution and Complex Wavelet transformation

Based on the proceding Letter [Int. J. Theor. Phys. 48, 1539 (2009)], we expand the relation between wavelet transformation and Husimi distribution function to the entangled case. We find that the optical complex wavelet transformation can be used to study the entangled Husimi distribution function in phase space theory of quantum optics. We prove that the entangled Husimi distribution function of a two-mode quantum state |phi> is just the modulus square of the complex wavelet transform of exp{-(|eta|^2)/2} with phi(eta)being the mother wavelet up to a Gaussian function.

Nonclassicality of photon-added squeezed vacuum and its decoherence in thermal environment

We study the nonclassicality of photon-added squeezed vacuum (PASV) and its decoherence in thermal environment in terms of the sub-Poissonian statistics and the negativity of Wigner function (WF). By converting the PASV to a squeezed Hermite polynomial excitation state, we derive a compact expression for the normalization factor of m-PASV, which is an m-order Legendre polynomial of squeezing parameter r. We also derive the explicit expression of WF of m-PASV and find the negative region of WF in phase space. We show that there is an upper bound value of r for this state to exhibit sub-Poissonian statistics increasing as m increases. Then we derive the explicit analytical expression of time evolution of WF of m-PASV in the thermal channel and discuss the loss of nonclassicality using the negativity of WF. The threshold value of decay time is presented for the single PASV.

In this work we present the inversion formula and Parsval theorem for CCWT by virtue of the entangled state representation, which makes the CCWT theory complete. A new orthogonal property of mother wavelet in parameter space is revealed.

New transformation of Wigner operator in phase space quantum mechanics for the two-mode entangled case

As a natural extension of Fan's paper (arXiv: 0903.1769vl [quant-ph]) by employing the formula of operators' Weyl ordering expansion and the bipartite entangled state representation we find new two-fold complex integration transformation about the Wigner operator (in its entangled form) in phase space quantum mechanics and its inverse transformation. In this way, some operator ordering problems can be solved and the contents of phase space quantum mechanics can be enriched.

New approach for deriving operator identities by alternately using normally, antinormally, and Weyl ordered integration

Dirac's ket-bra formalism is the "language" of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. In Refs.(Fan et al, Ann. Phys. 321 (2006) 480; 323 (2008) 500) we have reviewed how to apply Newton-Leibniz integration rules to Dirac's ket-bra projectors. In this work by alternately using the technique of integration within normal, antinormal, and Weyl ordering of operators we not only derive some new operator ordering identities, but also deduce some useful integration formulas regarding to Laguerre and Hermite polynomials. This opens a new route of deriving mathematical integration formulas by virtue of the quantum mechanical operator ordering technique.

Unifying the theory of Integration within normal-, Weyl- and antinormal-ordering of operators and the s--ordered operator expansion formula of density operators

By introducing the s-parameterized generalized Wigner operator into phase-space quantum mechanics we invent the technique of integration within s-ordered product of operators (which considers normal ordered, antinormally ordered and Weyl ordered product of operators as its special cases). The s-ordered operator expansion formula of density operators is derived, and the s-parameterized quantization scheme is thus completely established.
