Wigner distributions play a significant role in formulating the phase space analogue of quantum mechanics. The Schrodinger wave-functional for solitons is needed to derive it for solitons. The Wigner distribution derived can further be used…
Characteristic functions contain complete information about all the moments of a classical distribution and the same holds for the Fourier transform of the Wigner function: a quantum characteristic function, or the chord function. However,…

A detailed derivation of the semiclassical propagator in the generalized coherent-state representation is performed by applying the saddle-point method to a path integral over the classical phase space. With the purpose of providing greater…
