We revisit the quantized version of the harmonic oscillator obtained through a q-dependent family of coherent states. For each q, 0< q < 1, these normalized states form an overcomplete set that resolves the unity with respect to an explicit…

Deformed Harmonic Oscillator Algebras are generated by four operators, two mutually adjoint $a$ and $a^\dagger$, and two self-adjoint $N$ and the unity $1$ such as: $[a,N] = a, [a^\dagger, N]= -a^\dagger, a^\dagger a = \psi(N)$ and…

It is shown that if a Hamiltonian $H$ is Hermitian, then there always exists an operator P having the following properties: (i) P is linear and Hermitian; (ii) P commutes with H; (iii) P^2=1; (iv) the nth eigenstate of H is also an…
