Supersymmetric Displaced Number States

Supersymmetric Displaced Number States

We introduce, generate and study a family of supersymmetric displaced number states (SDNS) that can be considered generalized coherent states of the supersymmetric harmonic oscillator. The family is created from the seminal supersymmetric boson-fermion entangling annihilation operator introduced by Aragone and Zypman and later expanded by Kornbluth and Zypman. Using the momentum representation,...

LA - UR - 96 - 4789 Displaced and Squeezed Number States

After beginning with a short historical review of the concept of displaced (coherent) and squeezed states, we discuss previous (often forgotten) work on displaced and squeezed number states. Next, we obtain the most general displaced and squeezed number states. We do this in both the functional and operator (Fock) formalisms, thereby demonstrating the necessary equivalence. We then obtain the t...

Coherent states, displaced number states and Laguerre polynomial states for su(1,1) Lie algebra

The ladder operator formalism of a general quantum state for su(1,1) Lie algebra is obtained. The state bears the generally deformed oscillator algebraic structure. It is found that the Peremolov’s coherent state is a su(1,1) nonlinear coherent state. The expansion and the exponential form of the nonlinear coherent state are given. We obtain the matrix elements of the su(1,1) displacement opera...

Displaced squeezed number states: Position space representation, inner product, and some applications.

Supersymmetric States in M5/M2 CFTs

We propose an exact, finite N formula for the partition function over 1/4 BPS states in the conformal field theory on the world volume of N coincident M5 branes, and 1/8 BPS states in the theory of N conincident M2 branes. We obtain our partition function by performing the radial quantization of the Coulomb Branches of these theories and rederive the same formula from the quantization of supers...
