Quantum nonlinear lattices and coherent state vectors

چکیده

Quantized nonlinear lattice models are considered for two different classes, boson and fermionic ones. The quantum discrete nonlinear Schrödinger model (DNLS) is our main objective, but its so called modified discrete nonlinear (MDNLS) version is also included, together with the fermionic polaron (FP) model. Based on the respective dynamical symmetries of the models, a method is put forward which by use of the associated boson and spin coherent state vectors (CSV) and a factorization ansatz for the solution of the Schrödinger equation, leads to quasiclassical Hamiltonian equations of motion for the CSV parameters. The so obtained evolution equations are intimately related to the respective evolution equations for the classical lattices, provided we account for the ordering rules (normal, symmetric) adopted for their quantization. Analysing the geometrical content of the factorization ansatz made for the state vectors invokes the study of the Riemannian and symplectic geometry of the CSV manifolds as generalized phase spaces. Next, we investigate analytically and numerically the behavior of mean values and uncertainties of some physically interesting observables as well as the modifications in the quantum regime of processes such as the discrete self trapping (DST), in terms of the Q-function and the distribution of excitation quanta of the lattice sites. Quantum DST in the symmetric ordering of lattice operators is found to be relatively enhanced with respect to the classical DST. Finally, the meaning of the factorization ansatz for the lattice wave function is explained in terms of disregarded quantum correlations, and as a quantitative figure of merit for that ansatz a correlation index is introduced. This index is given in terms of the norm of the difference between the true and factorized state vectors, and accounts for the quantum correlations of the lattice sites that develop during the time evolution of the systems. ∗ Email: [email protected] ⋄ Email: [email protected] ♮ Email: [email protected]

Nature of self-localization of Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices

We analyze the nature of self-localization (SL) of Bose-Einstein condensates in one-dimensional optical lattices in the presence of weak local dissipation. SL has recently been observed in several studies based on the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation (DNLS); however, its origin is hitherto an open question. We show that SL is based on a self-trapping crossover in the system. Furthermore,...

Representations of the Gegenbauer Oscillator Algebra and the Overcompleteness of Sequences of Nonlinear Coherent States

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate a generalized oscillator algebra, naturally associated to the Gegenbauer polynomials and a related class of nonlinear coherent vectors. We derive their overcompleteness relation, in so doing, the partition of unity in terms of the eigenstates of the sequences of coherent vectors is established. It turns out that, in making up such relation, the p...
