Coherent states in Quantum Optics: An oriented overview
Jean Pierre Gazeau
TL;DR
This survey reviews various generalisations of coherent states in quantum optics, focusing on their statistical properties and roles in alternative quantisations of the electromagnetic field, with emphasis on SU(2) and SU(1,1) states.
Contribution
It provides a unified overview of different coherent state generalisations and explores their statistical and quantisation aspects in quantum optics.
Findings
Highlights statistical properties of Perelomov SU(2) and SU(1,1) coherent states.
Discusses their potential roles in non-standard quantisations.
Provides a comprehensive overview of coherent state generalisations.
Abstract
In this survey, various generalisations of Glauber-Sudarshan coherent states are described in a unified way, with their statistical properties and their possible role in non-standard quantisations of the classical electromagnetic field. Some statistical photon-counting aspects of Perelomov SU(2) and SU(1,1) coherent states are emphasized.
