Lewis-Riesenfeld quantization and SU(1,1) coherent states for 2D damped harmonic oscillator

arXiv:1805.02484 · doi:10.1063/1.5045621

Abstract

In this paper we study a two-dimensional [2D] rotationally symmetric harmonic oscillator with time-dependent frictional force. At the classical level, we solve the equations of motion for a particular case of the time-dependent coefficient of friction. At the quantum level, we use the Lewis-Riesenfeld procedure of invariants to construct exact solutions for the corresponding time-dependent Schrödinger equations. The eigenfunctions obtained are in terms of the generalized Laguerre polynomials. By mean of the solutions we verify a generalization version of the Heisenberg's uncertainty relation and derive the generators of the Lie algebra. Based on these generators, we construct the coherent states la Barut-Girardello and la Perelomov and respectively study their properties.
