Bargmann representations for deformed harmonic oscillators

Generalizing the case of the usual harmonic oscillator, we look for Bargmann representations corresponding to deformed harmonic oscillators. Deformed harmonic oscillator algebras are generated by four operators $a, a^\dagger, N$ and the unity 1 such as $[a,N] = a, [a^\dagger,N] = -a^\dagger$, $a^\dagger a = \psi(N)$ and $aa^\dagger =\psi(N+1)$. We discuss the conditions of existence of a scalar product expressed with a true integral on the space spanned by the eigenstates of $a$ (or $a^\dagger$). We give various examples, in particular we consider functions $\psi$ that are linear combinations of $q^N$, $q^{-N}$ and unity and that correspond to q-oscillators with Fock-representations or with non-Fock-representations.Comment: 23 pages, Late

q-Supersymmetric Generalization of von Neumann's Theorem

Assuming that there exist operators which form an irreducible representation of the q-superoscillator algebra, it is proved that any two such representations are equivalent, related by a uniquely determined superunitary transformation. This provides with a q-supersymmetric generalization of the well-known uniqueness theorem of von Neumann for any finite number of degrees of freedom.Comment: 10 pages, Latex, HU-TFT-93-2

Model for the on-site matrix elements of the tight-binding hamiltonian of a strained crystal: Application to silicon, germanium and their alloys

We discuss a model for the on-site matrix elements of the sp3d5s* tight-binding hamiltonian of a strained diamond or zinc-blende crystal or nanostructure. This model features on-site, off-diagonal couplings between the s, p and d orbitals, and is able to reproduce the effects of arbitrary strains on the band energies and effective masses in the full Brillouin zone. It introduces only a few additional parameters and is free from any ambiguities that might arise from the definition of the macroscopic strains as a function of the atomic positions. We apply this model to silicon, germanium and their alloys as an illustration. In particular, we make a detailed comparison of tight-binding and ab initio data on strained Si, Ge and SiGe.Comment: Submitted to Phys. Rev.

Localized Endomorphisms of the Chiral Ising Model

Based on the treatment of the chiral Ising model by Mack and Schomerus, we present examples of localized endomorphisms $\varrho_1^{\rm loc}$ and $\varrho_{1/2}^{\rm loc}$. It is shown that they lead to the same superselection sectors as the global ones in the sense that unitary equivalence $\pi_0\circ\varrho_1^{\rm loc}\cong\pi_1$ and $\pi_0\circ\varrho_{1/2}^{\rm loc}\cong\pi_{1/2}$ holds. Araki's formalism of the selfdual CAR algebra is used for the proof. We prove local normality and extend representations and localized endomorphisms to a global algebra of observables which is generated by local von Neumann algebras on the punctured circle. In this framework, we manifestly prove fusion rules and derive statistics operators.Comment: 41 pages, latex2

Coherent states for a quantum particle on a circle

The coherent states for the quantum particle on the circle are introduced. The Bargmann representation within the actual treatment provides the representation of the algebra $[\hat J,U]=U$, where $U$ is unitary, which is a direct consequence of the Heisenberg algebra $[\hat \phi, \hat J]=i$, but it is more adequate for the study of the circlular motion.Comment: 23 pages LaTeX, uses ioplppt.st
