Non-Hermitian Coherent States for Finite-Dimensional Systems

Abstract: We introduce Gilmore-Perelomov coherent states for non-unitary representations of non-compact groups, and discuss the main similarities and differences with respect to ordinary unitary Gilmore-Perelomov coherent states. The example of coherent states for the non-unitary finite dimensional representations of SU (1, 1) is considered and they are used to describe the propagation of light in coupled PT-symmetric optical devices.1 The first theoretical proposal of P T -symmetry in optics was given in [12].

“…In such a picture, the complex‐valued potential V λ ( x ) can be identified with a refractive index of balanced gain/loss profile . The study of non‐Hermitian coherent states associated with finite‐dimensional systems is also available. Finally, the approach can be extended either by applying conventional 1‐step Darboux transformations on the complex‐valued potential V λ ( x ) or by iterating the procedure presented in this work.…”

“…The present work provides a further example of numerous cases [24,31,33,34,67] when the coherent state transform is meaningful and useful beyond the traditional setup of square-integrable representations modulo a subgroup H [6, Ch. 8].…”

“…Although the representation of G is square-integrable modulo some subgroup H, the obtained geometric dynamic is not confined within the homogeneous space G/H, see (4.13). Thus, the standard approach to coherent state transform from square-integrable group representations [6, ch 8] shall be replaced by treatments of non-admissible mother wavelets [31,33,34], see also [18,19,24,67]. This is discussed in section 3.1.…”

“…algebraic, analytic, statistical properties [4,5], role played in quantization methods [6,7], in quantum measurement and positive operatorvalued measures (POVM) [8,9], quantum entanglement [10]. Furthermore, several generalizations in many directions have been proposed over all these years, starting from spin and atomic CS [11,12], followed by CS for groups of algebras of many types [13][14][15], nonlinear CS [16][17][18][19][20][21], generalization to squeezed states of light [22][23][24][25], and recently CS for non-Hermitian [26][27][28][29] structures.…”
