Mutual transformations between the P–Q,Q–P,and generalized Weyl ordering of operators

Based on the generalized Weyl quantization scheme, which relies on the generalized Wigner operator Ok （p, q） with a real k parameter and can unify the P-Q, Q-P, and Weyl ordering of operators in k = 1, - 1,0, respectively, we find the mutual transformations between 6 （p - P） （q - Q）, （q - Q） 3 （p - P）, and （p, q）, which are, respectively, the integration kernels of the P-Q, Q-P, and generalized Weyl quantization schemes. The mutual transformations provide us with a new approach to deriving the Wigner function of quantum states. The - and - ordered forms of （p, q） are also derived, which helps us to put the operators into their - and - ordering, respectively.     

Generalized Wigner Operator and Bivariate Normal Distributionin 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.     

Some New Properties of Wigner Function Studied in Entangled State Representation

Based on the Wigner operator in the entangled state representation we study some new important properties of Wigner function for bipartite entangled systems, such as size of an entangled state, upper bound of Wigner functions, etc. These discussions demonstrate the beauty and elegance of the entangled state representation.     

Decoherence of elliptical states in phase space

The effects of decoherence on elliptical states which concern the quantum superposition of N coherent states on an ellipse in the α plane are studied.The characteristic decoherence times are determined.The evolutions of the Wigner functions associated with these states are investigated theoretically and the losses of nonclassicality as a result of decoherence are discussed.The result shows that the decoherence of elliptical states is slower than circular states relying on the number of coherent states and the amplitude,and the constructed states have a higher resilience to losses.     

Preserving Coherence of Coherent State Studied via Weyl-Wigner Correspondence

By means of the Weyl correspondence and the explicit normally ordered expression of the Wigner operator we convert the time evolution equation of coherent states, governed by some Hamiltonian operators, into seeking for consistent solution of a set of evolution equtions of classical variables which can meet the requirment that an initial coherent state remains coherent all the time.     

Normally-Ordered Time Evolution Operator for Mass-Varying Harmonic Oscillator and Wigner Function of Squeezed Number State

For investigating dynamic evolution of a mass-varying harmonic oscillator we constitute a ket-bra integration operator in coherent state representation and then perform this integral by virtue of the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators. The normally ordered time evolution operator is thus obtained. We then derive the Wigner function of u（t）｜n,〉, where ｜n〉 is a Fock state, which exhibits a generalized squeezing, the squeezing effect is related to the varying mass with time.     

Entanglement Involved in Pair Coherent State Studied via Wigner Function Formalism

We calculate Wigner function, tomogram of the pair coherent state by using its Sehmidt decomposition in the coherent state representation. It turns out that the Wigner function can be seen as the quantum entanglement （QE） between two two-variable Hermite polynomials （TVHP） and the tomogram is further simplified as QE of two single-variable Hermite polynomials. The Husimi function of pair coherent state is also calculated.     

A Kind of Atomic Coherent State as a Two-Mode Squeezed State

We find that a kind of atomic coherent state, formed as exp[ ξJ＋-ξJ-]｜00〉,when the SU（2） generators J± are taken as Fan＇s form J＋=（1/2）（α1-α2）（α1-α2）,J-=（1/2）（α1＋α2）（α1＋α2）,and J0=（1/2）（α1α2-α1α2）,is simultaneously a two-mode squeezed state. We analyse this squeezed state＇s physical properites, such as the cross- correlation function, the Wigner function, and its marginal distribution as well as the Husimi function.     

Two-Variable Hermite Polynomial Excitation of Two-Mode Squeezed Vacuum State as Squeezed Two-Mode Number State

We find that the squeezed two-mode number state is just a two-variable Hermite polynomial excitation of the two-mode squeezed vacuum state （THPES）. We find that the Wigner function of THPES and its marginal distributions are just related to two-variable Hermite polynomials （or Laguerre polynomials） and that the tomogram of THPES can be expressed by one-mode Hermite polynomial.     

function for the squeezed atomic coherent state in entangled state representation and some of its applications

Based on the Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) entangled state representation, this paper introduces the wave function for the squeezed atomic coherent state (SACS), which turns out to be just proportional to a single-variable ordinary Hermite polynomial of order 2j. As important applications of the wave function, the Wigner function of the SACS and its marginal distribution are obtained and the eigenproblems of some Hamiltonians for the generalized angular momentum system are solved.     

Some Properties of Two-mode Displaced Excited Squeezed Vacuum States

In this paper, two-mode displaced excited squeezed vacuum states （TDESVS） are constructed and their normalization and completeness are investigated. Using the entangled state representation and Weyl ordering form of the Wigner operator, the Wigner functions of TDESVS are obtained and the variations of Wigner functions with the parameters m, n and r are investigated. Besides, two marginal distributions of Wigner functions of TDESVS are obtained, which exhibit some entangled properties of the two-particle＇s system in TDESVS.     

Operator Formulas Involving Generalized Stirling Number Derived by Virtue of Normal Ordering of Vacuum Projector

By virtue of the normal ordering of vacuum projector we directly derive some new complicated operator identities, regarding to the generalized Stirling number.     

Pure state condition for the semi-classical Wigner function

The Wigner function W(p,q) is a symmetrized Fourier transform of the density matrix ρ(q₁,q₂), representing quantum-mechanical states or their statistical mixture in phase space. Identification of these two alternatives in the case of density matrices depends on the projection identity ρ² = ρ; its Wigner correspondence is the pure state condition. This criterion is applied to the Wigner functions obtained from standard semiclassical wave functions, determining as pure states those whose classical invariant tori satisfy the generalized Bohr-Sommerfeld conditions. Superpositions of eigenstates are then examined and it is found that the Wigner function corresponding to Gaussian random wave functions are smoothed out in the manner of mixed-state Wigner functions. Attention is also given to the pure-state condition in the case where an angular coordinate is used.     

Application of Fourier Slice Theorem in Wigner Operator Theory and New Complete Representation

By applying the Fourier slice theorem, Sθ（λ） =∫^∞-∞Pθ（t）e^-iλt=F（λcosθ,λsinθ）,where Pθ（t） is a projection of f（x,p）=^∞∫∫-∞F（u,v）e^i（uz＋up） dudv along lines of constant, to the Wigner operator we are naturally led to a projection operator （pure state）, which results in a new complete representation. The Weyl orderimg formalism of the Wigner operator is used in the derivation.     

A Note on Wigner Functions and ＊-Genvalue Equation

In deformation quantization, static Wigner functions obey functional ,-genvalue equation, which is equivalent to time-independent Schrodinger equation in Hilbert space operator formalism of quantum mechanics. This equivalence is proved mostly for Hamiltonian with form H^ = （1/2）p^2 ＋ V（x^） [D. Fairlie, Proc. Camb. Phil. Soc. 60 （1964） 581]. In this note we generalize this proof to a very general Hamiltonian H^（x^,p^） and give examples to support it.     

The Wigner distribution function of a super Lorentz–Gauss SLG_(11) beam through a paraxial ABCD optical system

An orthonormal beam family of super Lorentz-Gauss （SLG） beam model is proposed to describe the higher-order mode beams with high divergence, which are generated by a high power diode laser. Here we consider the simplest case of the SLG beams, where there are four mutually orthogonal SLG beams, namely SLG00, SLG01, SLG10, and SLGll beams. The SLG00 beam is just the Lorentz-Gauss beam. Based on the Collins integral formula and the Hermite-Gaussian expansion of a Lorentz function, an analytical expression for the Wigner distribution function （WDF） of an SLG11 beam through a paraxial ABCD optical system is derived. The properties of the WDF of an SLG11 beam propagating in free space are demonstrated. The normalized WDFs of an SLG11 beam at the different spatial points are depicted in several observation planes. The influence of the beam parameter on the WDF of an SLGI 1 beam in free space is analyzed at different propagation distances. The second-order moments of the WDF of an SLG11 beam in free space are also examined. This research reveals the propagation properties of an SLGll beam from another perspective. The WDFs of SLG01 and SLG10 beams can be easily obtained by using the WDFs of Lorentz-Gauss beam and the SLG11 beam.     

Wigner Function for Klein-Gordon Landau Problem

First we calculate the Wigner phase-space distribution function for the Klein-Gordan Landau problem on a commmutative space. Then we study the modifications introduced by the coordinate-coordinate noncommuting and momentum-momentum noncommuting, namely, by using a generalized Bopp＇s shift method we construct the Wigner function for the Klein-Gordan Landau problem both on a noncommutative space （NCS） and a noncommutative phase space （NCPS）.     

Generalized Weyl Ordering and Nonlinear Coherent States

In the context of the nonlinear coherent state(NLCS)theory we introduce the generalized weyl ordering operator formulation.The corresponding generalzied wigner operator turns out to be the Weyl ordered diracδ-operator functions.The completeness relation of NLCS is recast into generalized Weyl ordering form,The relationship between normal ordering,antinormal ordering and the generalized Weyl ordering is established which constitute a self-consistent theory for NLCS.
