New physics in Landau levels

The most general displaced number 'coherent' states, based on the Heisenberg, su(2) and su(1, 1) Lie algebras symmetries, are constructed. They depend on two parameters, and can be converted into the well-known photon-added, two variable Glauber coherent states and displaced number states respectively, depending on which of the parameters is equal to zero. The relations of the Weyl–Heisenberg algebra guarantee a corresponding resolution of the identity conditions. A discussion of the statistical properties of these states is included. Significant are their squeezing properties, which can be raised by increasing the energy and angular momentum quantum numbers n and m. The maximum squeezing is obtained for Bext = 0. Depending on the particular choice of parameters in the above scenarios, we are able to determine the status of compliance with Poissonian statistics. In the limiting case, we obtain a major result about the non-classical properties of the Glauber minimum uncertainty coherent states. In other words, in addition to the requirement to minimize uncertainty conditions, they carry non-classical features too. Finally, a theoretical framework is proposed to generate them. (paper)
