Generalized Wigner Operator and Bivariate Normal Distribution in p-q Phase Space

We introduce a kind of generalized Wigner operator, whose normally ordered form can lead to the bivariate normal distribution in p-q phase space. While this bivariate normal distribution corresponds to the pure vacuum state in the generalized Wigner function phase space, it corresponds to a mixed state in the usual Wigner function phase space.     

Bivariate averaging and the Wigner distribution function

In order to gain insight into the nature of the Wigner and related distribution functions, bivariate averaging functions of real unbounded variables with absolutely continuous marginals that are ordinary probabilities are considered. Accordingly variables are chosen to be phase space variables that are respectively eigenvalues of position and momentum operators. The impact of the condition that the marginals are squared magnitudes of amplitudes that are Fourier transforms of one another is emphasized by the delay of the introduction of this Fourier transform condition until after the form for a bivariate distribution with the given marginals is obtained. When the respective amplitudes are fourier transforms of one another, special cases of the bivariate averaging function correspond to generalized Wigner functions characterized by a parameterα. Such anα-Wigner function can be used as the basis of a consistent averaging procedure if an appropriate corresponding representation for underlying operators to be averaged is specified. Properties of theα-Wigner functions are summarized.     

A generalized Weyl—Wigner quantization scheme unifying P-Q and Q-P ordering and Weyl ordering of operators

By extending the usual Wigner operator to the s-parameterized one as 1/4π2 integral (dyduexp [iu(q-Q)+iy(p-P)+is/2yu]) from n=- ∞ to ∞ with s beng a,real parameter,we propose a generalized Weyl quantization scheme which accompanies a new generalized s-parameterized ordering rule.This rule recovers P-Q ordering,Q-P ordering,and Weyl ordering of operators in s = 1,1,0 respectively.Hence it differs from the Cahill-Glaubers’ ordering rule which unifies normal ordering,antinormal ordering,and Weyl ordering.We also show that in this scheme the s-parameter plays the role of correlation between two quadratures Q and P.The formula that can rearrange a given operator into its new s-parameterized ordering is presented.

Using the normally ordered Gaussian form of the Wigner operator we recapitulate the quantum phase space representation, we derive a new formula for searching for the classical correspondence of quantum mechanical operators; we also show that if there exists the eigenvector ｜q〉λ,v of linear combination of the coordinate and momentum operator, （λQ ＋ vP）, where λ,v are real numbers, and ｜q〉λv is complete, then the projector ｜q〉λ,vλ,v〈q｜ must be the Radon transform of Wigner operator. This approach seems concise and physical appealing.
