This function consists of two terms: the Gaussian term and the interference term with the negativity. The first term comprises N Gaussian surfaces evenly centred on a circle of radius |β| = |α| with a separate angle of 2π/N, and the second term is composed of 1/2N(N - 1) Gaussian-cosine surfaces evenly centred in a circular region of radius |β| 〈 |α|. Here, a is the eigenvalue of the annihilation operator α, and β is a variable in some complex space in which the Wigner function is defined. We have proved that the essential condition to eliminate the negativity of the Wigner function is that the mean photon count of the coherent state is equal to that of the Glouber coherent state.展开更多

Moreover, in terms of the Wigner functions with respect to the complex parameter a the nonclassical properties of the PDEOCSs are discussed. The results show that the nonclassicality for the state |β, m〉o (or |β,m〉e) is more pronounced when m is even (or odd). According to the marginal distributions of the Wigner functions, the physical meaning of the Wigner functions is given. Further, the tomograms of the PDEOCSs are calculated with the aid of newly introduced intermediate coordinate-momentum representation in quantum optics.展开更多

Compared with ideal hydrodynamics without spin, additional terms at the first and second orders in the Knudsen number Κ_(n) and the average spin polarization Χ_(s) have been derived. The Wigner function can be expressed in terms of matrix-valued distributions, whose equilibrium forms are characterized by thermodynamical parameters in quantum statistics. The equations of motion for these parameters are derived by conservation laws at the leading and next-to-leading order Κ_(n) and Χ_(s).展开更多

Using the entangled state 〈η〉 representation of Wigner operator, it obtains the Wigner function for the GEPCS. In the ρ-γ phase space, the variations of the Wigner function distributions with the parameters q, α, k and l are discussed.

The entangled states |η〉 and |η1, η2, τ1, τ2〉 provide two good representative space for studying the Wigner functions and tomograms of various two-mode correlated quantum states.展开更多

The atoms are sent to resonantly interact with two orthogonally polarized cavity modes in the presence of strong classical field.

Our aim is to find universal techniques being able to solve this problem. The new method combines the basic ideas of the Metropolis and Hasting algorithms and is based on the Picard-Lefschetz theory and complex-valued version of Morse theory. The basic idea is to choose the Lefschetz thimbles as manifolds approaching the saddle point of the integrand. On this thimble the imaginary part of the complex-valued action remains constant. As a result the integrand on each thimble does not oscillate, so the “sign problem” disappears and the integral can be calculated much more effectively. The developed approach allows also finding saddle points in the complexified space of path integral integration. Some simple test calculations and comparisons with available analytical results have been carried out.展开更多

Since optics and mechanics both have symplectic structures, the concept of optics can be replaced by that of mechanics and vice versa. We list the four types of eikonal (generating functions). We also introduce a unitary operator for the affine transformation. Using the unitary operator, the kernel (propagator) is calculated and the wavization (quantization) of the Gabor function is discussed. The dynamic properties of the affine transformed Wigner function are also discussed.展开更多
