Glauber-Sudarshan diagonal coherent state P-representation has been used to determine geometric phase for non-classical states of light. For a given density operator $\hat{\rho_1}$ of two mode optical beam, we evolve it in complex…
A new integral representation is obtained for the star product corresponding to the $s$-ordering of the creation and annihilation operators. This parametric ordering convention introduced by Cahill and Glauber enables one to vary the type…
In this paper, we formulate the phase space description of qubit systems using coadjoint orbits of $SU(2)$ and the Stratonovich-Weyl correspondence, yielding a deformation quantization on the sphere. The resulting star product reproduces…
Coherent state functional integrals for the minisuperspace models of quantum cosmology are studied. By the well-established canonical theories, the transition amplitudes in the path-integral representations of Wheeler-DeWitt quantum…
We present a compact, systematic formulation of the dynamics of the Husimi Q- and Glauber-Sudarshan P-phase space distribution functions expressed in terms of their \emph{complementary} Hamiltonian symbols: Anti-Wick for Q and Wick for P.…
In this paper, we consider an arbitrary irreducible unitary representation $(\pi_{\lambda},V_{\lambda})$ of a compact connected, simply connected semisimple Lie group $G$ with highest weight $\lambda$, and apply the idea of…
We construct a representation of the coherent state path integral using the Weyl symbol of the Hamiltonian operator. This representation is very different from the usual path integral forms suggested by Klauder and Skagerstan in…
In this paper we address the relation between the star exponentials emerging within the Deformation Quantization formalism and Feynman's path integrals associated with propagators in quantum dynamics. In order to obtain such a relation, we…
We consider a set of operators hat{x}=(hat{x}_1,..., hat{x}_N) with diagonal representatives P(n) in the space of generalized coherent states |n>; hat{x}=int dn P(n) |n><n|. We regularize the coherent-state path integral as a limit of a…

The so-called stellar formalism allows to represent the non-Gaussian properties of single-mode quantum states by the distribution of the zeros of their Husimi Q-function in phase-space. We use this representation in order to derive an…
We present a computation of the coherent state path integral for a generic linear system using ``functional methods'' (as opposed to discrete time approaches). The Gaussian phase space path integral is formally given by a determinant built…
This paper begins by reviewing the general form of the Glauber-Sudarshan P mapping, a cornerstone of coherence theory in quantum optics, which defines a two-way mapping between ensembles of states S of any classical Hamiltonian field theory…
We propose a formalism to analyze discrete stochastic processes with finite-state-level N. By using an (N+1)-dimensional representation of su(2) Lie algebra, we re-express the master equation to a time-evolution equation for the state…
This paper is an immediate continuation of the first part of our paper [1]. Here, in a para-Grassmann algebra we introduce a noncommutative, associative star product $*$ (the Moyal product), which is a direct generalization of the star…
We study the time evolution of a PT-symmetric, non-Hermitian quantum system for which the associated phase space is compact. We focus on the simplest non-trivial example of such a Hamiltonian, which is linear in the angular momentum…
We consider the problem of existence of the diagonal representation for operators in the space of a family of generalized coherent states associated with an unitary irreducible representation of a (compact) Lie group. We show that necessary…
The path-integral quantization of thermal scalar, vector and spinor fields is performed newly in the coherent-state representation. In doing this, we choose the thermal electrodynamics and $\phi ^4$ theory as examples. By this quantization,…
We introduce, for the first time, bicoherent-state path integration as a method for quantizing non-hermitian systems. Bicoherent-state path integrals arise as a natural generalization of ordinary coherent-state path integrals, familiar from…
A path integral formula for the associative star-product of two superfields is proposed. It is a generalization of the Kontsevich-Cattaneo-Felder's formula for the star-product of functions of bosonic coordinates. The associativity of the…
