Squeezing for Bloch Four-Hyperboloid via The Non-Compact Hopf Map

arXiv:1904.12259 · doi:10.1088/1751-8121/ab3cda

Abstract

We explore the hyperbolic geometry of squeezed states in the perspective of the non-compact Hopf map. Based on analogies between squeeze operation and hyperbolic rotation, two types of the squeeze operators, the (usual) Dirac- and the Schwinger-types, are introduced. We clarify the underlying hyperbolic geometry and representations of the squeezed states along the line of the 1st non-compact Hopf map. Following to the geometric hierarchy of the non-compact Hopf maps, we extend the analysis to --- the isometry of an split-signature four-hyperboloid. We explicitly construct the squeeze operators in the Dirac- and Schwinger-types and investigate the physical meaning of the four-hyperboloid coordinates in the context of the Schwinger-type squeezed states. It is shown that the Schwinger-type squeezed one-photon state is equal to an entangled superposition state of two squeezed states and the corresponding concurrence has a clear geometric meaning. Taking advantage of the group theoretical formulation, basic properties of the squeezed coherent states are also investigated. In particular, we show that the squeezed vacuum naturally realizes a generalized squeezing in a 4D manner.
