Classical properties of generalized coherent states: from phase-space dynamics to Bell's inequality

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We review classical properties of harmonic-oscillator coherent states. Then we discuss which of these classical properties are preserved under the group-theoretic generalization of coherent states. We prove that the generalized coherent states of quantum systems with Lie-group symmetries are the unique Bell states, i.e., the pure quantum states preserving the fundamental classical property of satisfying Bell's inequality upon splitting.
