Abstract

We explore the hyperbolic geometry of squeezed states in the perspective of the non-compact Hopf map. Based on analogies between squeeze operation and Sp(2,R)Sp(2,\mathbb{R}) hyperbolic rotation, two types of the squeeze operators, the (usual) Dirac- and the Schwinger-types, are introduced. We clarify the underlying hyperbolic geometry and SO(2,1)SO(2,1) representations of the squeezed states along the line of the 1st non-compact Hopf map. Following to the geometric hierarchy of the non-compact Hopf maps, we extend the Sp(2;R)Sp(2; \mathbb{R}) analysis to Sp(4;R)Sp(4; \mathbb{R}) --- the isometry of an split-signature four-hyperboloid. We explicitly construct the Sp(4;R)Sp(4; \mathbb{R}) squeeze operators in the Dirac- and Schwinger-types and investigate the physical meaning of the four-hyperboloid coordinates in the context of the Schwinger-type squeezed states. It is shown that the Schwinger-type Sp(4;R)Sp(4;\mathbb{R}) squeezed one-photon state is equal to an entangled superposition state of two Sp(2;R)Sp(2;\mathbb{R}) squeezed states and the corresponding concurrence has a clear geometric meaning. Taking advantage of the group theoretical formulation, basic properties of the Sp(4;R)Sp(4;\mathbb{R}) squeezed coherent states are also investigated. In particular, we show that the Sp(4;R)Sp(4; \mathbb{R}) squeezed vacuum naturally realizes a generalized squeezing in a 4D manner.
