We present the reconstruction of the Wigner function of a classical phase-sensitive state, a pulsed coherent state, by measurements of the distributions of detected-photons of the state displaced by a coherent probe field. By using a hybrid…
Starting from the Pauli Hamiltonian operator, we derive a scalar quantum kinetic equations for spin-1/2 systems. Here the regular Wigner two-state matrix is replaced by a scalar distribution function in extended phase space. Apart from…
We analyse the action of an ideal noiseless linear amplifier operator, $g^\hat{n}$, using the Wigner function phase space representation. In this setting we are able to clarify the gain $g$ for which a physical output is produced when this…
Monte Carlo simulations are useful tools for modeling quantum systems, but in some cases they suffer from a sign problem, leading to an exponential slow down in their convergence to a value. While solving the sign problem is generically…

The purposes of this work are (1) to show that the appropriate generalizations of the oscillator algebra permit the construction of a wide set of nonlinear coherent states in unified form; and (2) to clarify the likely contradiction between…
We address nonclassicality of hybrid coherent states (HCS), i.e. states expressed as superpositions of coherent states and single-photon-added coherent (SPAC) state. In particular, we evaluate their photon statistics, squeezing, and…
Dimerized quantum spin systems may appear under several circumstances, e.g\ by a modulation of the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling in space, or in frustrated quantum antiferromagnets. In general, such systems display a quantum phase…
A quantum wire of uniform cross section (but with eventual disorder) with three regions: dot, left lead, and right lead, is considered. Assuming that the same unitary transformation diagonalizes all unit cells of this wire, we propose a new…
We study equivariant localization formulas for phase space path integrals when the phase space is a multiply connected compact Riemann surface. We consider the Hamiltonian systems to which the localization formulas are applicable and show…
