Non-linear coherent states

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coherent states are quasi-classical states that may be defined in different ways, for instance as eigenstates of the annihilation operator

,

or as a displacement from the vacuum

,

where is the Sudarshan-Glauber displacement operator.[1]

One may think of a non-linear coherent state [2] by generalizing the annihilation operator:

,

and then using any of the above definitions by exchanging by . The above definition is also known as an -deformed annihilation operator.[3][4]
