Non-orthogonal bases of projectors on coherent states are introduced to expand hermitean operators acting on the Hilbert space of a spin s. It is shown that the expectation values of a hermitean operator A in a family of (2s+1)(2s+1)…

The coherent states for a set of quadratic Hamiltonians in the trap regime are constructed. A matrix technique which allows to identify directly the creation and annihilation operators will be presented. Then, the coherent states as…
This paper constructs coherent states for spin networks with planar symmetry. After gauge-fixing, the full SU(2) symmetry is broken to U(1), but one cannot simply use the U(1) limit of SU(2) coherent states, because the planar states…
We derive exact closed-form expressions for the matrix exponential of the anti-Hermitian spin-adapted singlet double excitation fermionic operators. These expressions enable the efficient implementation of such operators within unitary…
We introduce creation and annihilation operators of pseudo-Hermitian fermions for two-level systems described by pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian with real eigenvalues. This allows the generalization of the fermionic coherent states approach to…

A set of Hamiltonians that are not self-adjoint but have the spectrum of the harmonic oscillator is studied. The eigenvectors of these operators and those of their Hermitian conjugates form a bi-orthogonal system that provides a…
Spin states of maximal projection along some direction in space are called (spin) coherent, and are, in many aspects, the "most classical" available. For any spin $s$, the spin coherent states form a 2-sphere in the projective Hilbert space…
It has been shown that a positive semi-definite Hamiltonian H, that has a tridiagonal matrix representation in a given basis, can be represented in the form H = A{\dag}A, where A is a forward shift operator playing the role of an…
State and measurement tomography make assumptions about the experimental states or measurements. These assumptions are often not justified because state preparation and measurement errors are unavoidable in practice. Here we describe how…
We present a proof that the operator norm of the commutator of certain spectral projections associated with spin operators converges to $\frac 1 2$ in the semiclassical limit. The ranges of the projections are spanned by all eigenvectors…
In general, it is a non trivial task to determine the adjoint $S^*$ of an unbounded operator $S$ acting between two Hilbert spaces. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a given operator $T$ to be identical with $S^*$. In our…
We derive the coherent state representation of the integrable spin chain Hamiltonian with symmetry group SL(2,R). By passing to the continuum limit, we find a spin chain sigma model describing a string moving on the hyperboloid…
Coherent states provide a natural connection of quantum systems to their classical limit and are employed in various fields of physics. Here we derive general systematic expansions, with respect to quantum parameters, of expectation values…
The first step in the counting operator analysis of the spectrum of any model Hamiltonian H is the choice of a Hermitean operator M in such a way that the third commutator with H is proportional to the first commutator. Next one calculates…
We consider a spin coherent states description of a general quantum spin system. It is shown that it is possible to use the spin-1/2 representation to study the general spin-J case. We identify the 1/2 spinor components as the homogeneous…
We emphasize some properties of coherent state groups, i.e. groups whose quotient with the stationary groups, are manifolds which admit a holomorphic embedding in a projective Hilbert space. We determine the differential action of the…
