SU(1, 1) and SU(2) Perelomov number coherent states: algebraic approach for general systems

We study some properties of the SU(1, 1) Perelomov number coherent states. The Schrödinger's uncertainty relationship is evaluated for a position and momentum-like operators (constructed from the Lie algebra generators) in these number coherent states. It is shown that this relationship is minimized for the standard coherent states. We obtain the time evolution of the number coherent states by supposing that the Hamiltonian is proportional to the third generator K₀ of the su(1, 1) Lie algebra. Analogous results for the SU(2) Perelomov number coherent states are found. As examples, we compute the Perelomov coherent states for the pseudoharmonic oscillator and the two-dimensional isotropic harmonic oscillator.

A generalized two-mode harmonic oscillator model is investigated within the framework of its general dynamical algebra so(3,2). Two types of eigenstates, formulated as extended su(1,1), su(2) squeezed number states are found respectively. The nonadiabatic Berrys phase for this system with the cranked time-dependent Hamiltonian is also given.Received: 16 January 2004, Published online: 10 August 2004PACS: 42.50.Dv Nonclassical states of the electromagnetic field, including entangled photon states; quantum state engineering and measurements - 03.65.Fd Algebraic methods - 03.65.Vf Phases: geometric; dynamic or topological     

Generalized Spin Coherent States: Construction and Some Physical Properties

A generalized deformation of the su(2) algebra and a scheme for constructing associated spin coherent states is developed. The problem of resolving the unity operator in terms of these states is addressed and solved for some particular cases. The construction is carried using a deformation of Holstein-Primakoff realization of the su(2) algebra. The physical properties of these states is studied through the calculation of Mandel’s parameter.     

Dynamical Lie algebra method for highly excited vibrational state of asymmetric linear tetratomic molecules

The highly excited vibrational states of asymmetric linear tetratomic molecules are studied in the framework of Lie algebra. By using symmetric groupU ₁(4)U ₂(4)⊗U ₃(4), we construct the Hamiltonian that includes not only Casimir operators but also Majorana operators M₁₂, M₁₃ and M₂₃, which are useful for getting potential energy surface and force constants in Lie algebra method. By Lie algebra treatment, we obtain the eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian, and make the concrete calculation for molecule C₂HF.     

An Algebraic Approach to the Generalized Symmetrical Double-Well Potential

We have obtained the energy eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenfunctions for the generalized double-well potential in the non-relativistic Schr?dinger equation. We have calculated the creation and annihilation operators directly from the eigenfunction and we have shown these operators satisfy the commutation relation of the SU(2) group. We have expressed the Hamiltonian in terms of the su(2) algebra. Some interesting result including the standard symmetrical double-well potential, reflectionless-type potential and V ₀tanh ²(r/d) potential are also discussed.     

Models of particle states

Two different types of particle state models are discussed. In the first type, particles are considered to be dynamically bound systems of a small set of physical constituents. In the second type, particle states are constructed from tensor products of symmetry constituents, i.e., states that are the basis elements of finite irreducible representations of an internal algebra. These states need not represent physical particles. We present three models of the first type. For the second type, we discuss in detail the main thrust of this paper, a new version of the quark-lepton model based on the algebrasu(4)_flaourXsu(6)_flavour. The quark color-triplet and a lepton color-singlet are united by a single irreducible representation of su(4)_colour. Thesu(6)_colour algebra is an extension of the originalsu(3)_flavor. All observed ground-state hadron multiplets are in full accord with the predictions of this model. The numbers of hadron ground states it predicts are 36 spin-0 mesons, 36 spin-1 mesons, 70 spin-1/2 baryons, and 56 spin-3/2 baryons.Professor Barut passed away suddenly on December 5, 1994.     

SU(1,1) Coherent States for Position-Dependent Mass Singular Oscillators

The Schr?dinger equation for position-dependent mass singular oscillators is solved by means of the factorization method and point transformations. These systems share their spectrum with the conventional singular oscillator. Ladder operators are constructed to close the su(1,1) Lie algebra and the involved point transformations are shown to preserve the structure of the Barut-Girardello and Perelomov coherent states.     

Polynomial Lie algebras in solving a class of integrable models of quantum optics: exact methods and quasiclassics

A wide class of integrable quantum-optical models with G _i-invariant Hamiltonians H is described in the form when H are linear functions in generators of the polynomial Lie algebras su _pd(2) and Hilbert spaces L(H) of quantum states are decomposed in direct sums of su _pd(2)-irreducible subspaces. This yields exact and approximate methods of solving physical problems as well as new (su _pd(2)-cluster) quasiclassics in original models.     

(p,q)-Analog of Two-Dimensional Conformal Field Theory. The Ward Identities and Correlation Functions

Abstract

A (p, q)-analog of two-dimensional conformally invariant field theory based on the quantum algebra U_pq (su(1, 1)) is proposed. The representation of the algebra U_pq (su(1, 1)) on the space of quasi-primary fields is given. The (p, q)-deformed Ward identities of conformal field theory are defined. The two- and three-point correlation functions of quasi-primary fields are calculated.

Dynamical symmetries for superintegrable quantum systems

We study the dynamical symmetries of a class of two-dimensional superintegrable systems on a 2-sphere, obtained by a procedure based on the Marsden-Weinstein reduction, by considering its shape-invariant intertwining operators. These are obtained by generalizing the techniques of factorization of one-dimensional systems. We firstly obtain a pair of noncommuting Lie algebras su(2) that originate the algebra so(4). By considering three spherical coordinate systems, we get the algebra u(3) that can be enlarged by “reflexions” to so(6). The bounded eigenstates of the Hamiltonian hierarchies are associated to the irreducible unitary representations of these dynamical algebras. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

The su q(2) algebra in the off-diagonal basis and applications to quantum optics

We consider a new exactly solvable nonlinear quantum model as a Hamiltonian defined in terms of the generators of the su _q(2) algebra. The corresponding matrix elements of finite rotations (the q-deformed Wigner d functions) are introduced. It is shown that the quantum optical model of the three-wave interaction has an approximate su _q(2) dynamical symmetry given by this Hamiltonian. Such q symmetry allows us to investigate the spectral and dynamical properties of the three wave model through new perturbation techniques.     

Realizations ofU q(su(1, 1)) by deformed quantum harmonic oscillator algebras and associated deformed Heisenberg algebras

Forsu(1, 1)-symmetric Hamiltonians of quantum mechanical systems (e.g. single-mode quantum harmonic oscillator, radial Schrödinger equation for Coulomb problem or isotropic quantum harmonic oscillator, etc.), the Heisenberg algebra of phase-space variables in two dimensions satisfy the bilinear commutation relation [ip,x]=1 (in normal units). Also there are different realizations ofsu(1, 1) by the generators of quantum harmonic oscillator algebra. We seek here the forms of deformed Heisenberg algebras (bilinear in deformedx and ip) associated with deformedsu(1, 1)-symmetric Hamiltonians. These forms are not unique in contrast to the undeformed case; and these forms are obtained here by considering different realizations of the deformedsu(1, 1) algebra by deformed oscillator algebras (satisfying different bilinear relations in deformed creation and annihilation operators), and then imposing different conditions (e.g. the deformed Heisenberg algebra of the form of the undeformed one, the form of realizations of the deformedsu(1, 1) algebra by deformed phase-space variables being the same as that ofsu(1, 1) algebra by undeformed phase-space variables, etc.), assuming linear relations between deformed phase-space variables and deformed creation-annihilation operators (as it is done in the undeformed case), we get different Heisenberg algebras. These facts are revealed in the case of a two-body Calogero model in its centre of mass frame (and for no other integrable systems in one-dimension having potential of the formV(x _i ? x_j).     

Indecomposable representations of the algebra su(2,1)

Representations of the Lie algebra sl(3) with highest weight are analyzed. Invariant subspaces of indecomposable representations are determined. We study the decomposition of these representations with respect to the subalgebras su(2) and su(1,1) (in their obvious imbedding in su(2,1)).For special cases this decomposition gives indecomposable non multiplicity free representations (indecomposable pairs) with highest weight. These were discussed in [1] and appear also in the decomposition so(3,2) su(1,1) of the Rac representation, [7].     

Kac-Moody symmetries of critical ground states

The symmetries of critical ground states of two-dimensional lattice models are investigated. We show how mapping a critical ground state to a model of a rough interface can be used to identify the chiral symmetry algebra of the conformal field theory that describes its scaling limit. This is demonstrated in the case of the six-vertex model, the three-coloring model on the honeycomb lattice, and the four-coloring model on the square lattice. These models are critical and they are described in the continuum by conformal field theories whose symmetry algebras are the su(2)_k=1, su(3)_k=1, and the su(4)_k=1 Kac-Moody algebra, respectively. Our approach is based on the Frenkel-Kac-Segal vertex operator construction of level-one Kac-Moody algebras.     

Finite Hamiltonian systems: Linear transformations and aberrations

Finite Hamiltonian systems contain operators of position, momentum, and energy, having a finite number N of equally-spaced eigenvalues. Such systems are under the æis of the algebra su(2), and their phase space is a sphere. Rigid motions of this phase space form the group SU(2); overall phases complete this to U(2). But since N-point states can be subject to U(N) ?U(2) transformations, the rest of the generators will provide all N ² unitary transformations of the states, which appear as nonlinear transformations—aberrations—of the system phase space. They are built through the “finite quantization” of a classical optical system.
