Pomeron Evolution and Squeezed States in Quantum Optics

TL;DR

This paper explores the application of quantum optics techniques, specifically coherent and squeezed states, to model pomeron evolution, revealing that squeezed pomeron states correspond to fan diagrams and interpreting operators as propagation and interaction.

Contribution

It introduces a novel approach by applying quantum optics formalism to pomeron dynamics, establishing equivalences with fan diagrams and providing new interpretations of operators.

Findings

Squeezed pomeron states are equivalent to fan diagrams at leading order.

Displacement operator models pomeron propagation.

Squeeze operator models pomeron interaction.

Abstract

We apply the formalism of coherent states in quantum optics to pomeron evolution and show that evolving squeezed pomeron states are equivalent to pomeron fan diagrams at the leading order of perturbative expansion. Based on our results, we interpret the action of the displacement operator as pomeron propagation and the action of the squeeze operator as pomeron interaction.
