Abstract

We provide (partial) reconstruction formulas and discrete Fourier transforms for wave functions in standard Fock-Bargmann (holomorphic) phase-number representation from a finite number NN of phase samples {θk=2πk/N}k=0N1\{\theta_k=2\pi k/N\}_{k=0}^{N-1} for a given mean number pp of particles. The resulting Coherent State (CS) subsystem S={zk=p1/2eiθk>}{\cal S}=\{|z_k=p^{1/2}e^{i\theta_k}>\} is complete (a frame) for truncated Hilbert spaces (finite number of particles) and reconstruction formulas are exact. For an unbounded number of particles, S{\cal S} is "almost complete" (a \textit{pseudo-frame}) and partial reconstruction formulas are provided along with an study of the accuracy of the approximation, which tends to be exact when p<Np<N and/or NN\to\infty.
