In this paper we present an entropic description of quantum state obtained by interaction of one mode of quantized electromagnetic field with two two-level atoms inside a cavity, known as Tavis-Cumming model. Wehrl entropy has been calculated analytically and investigated as a function of the average value of the photon number operator. Husimi's Q function has been calculated and compared with the behaviour of the field entropy.
In the paper the origins of the intrinsic unitary symmetry encountered in the study of bosonic systems with finite degrees of freedom and its relations with the Weyl algebra (1979, Jacobson) generated by the quantum canonical commutation relations are presented. An analytical representation of the Weyl algebra formulated in terms of partial differential operators with polynomial coefficients is studied in detail. As a basic example, the symmetry properties of the -dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator...
Let be the semidirect product where is a semisimple compact connected Lie group acting linearly on a finite-dimensional real vector space . Let be a coadjoint orbit of associated by the Kirillov-Kostant method of orbits with a unitary irreducible representation of . We consider the case when the corresponding little group is the centralizer of a torus of . By dequantizing a suitable realization of on a Hilbert space of functions on where , we construct a symplectomorphism between...
We extend Van der Corput's method for exponential sums to study an oscillating term appearing in the quantum theory of large atoms. We obtain an interpretation in terms of classical dynamics and we produce sharp asymptotic upper and lower bounds for the oscillations.
We give a survey of techniques from quantum group theory which can be used to show that some quantum spaces (objects of the category dual to the category of C*-algebras) do not admit any quantum group structure. We also provide a number of examples which include some very well known quantum spaces. Our tools include several purely quantum group theoretical results as well as study of existence of characters and traces on C*-algebras describing the considered quantum spaces as well as properties...
We study complex zeros of eigenfunctions of second order linear differential operators with real even polynomial potentials. For potentials of degree 4, we prove that all zeros of all eigenfunctions belong to the union of the real and imaginary axes. For potentials of degree 6, we classify eigenfunctions with finitely many zeros, and show that in this case too, all zeros are real or pure imaginary.
