Abstract

The compact groups such as and groups have been heavily studied and applied in the study of quantum many body systems. However, the non-compact groups such as the real symplectic groups are less touched. In this paper, we will reveal that the quantum dynamics of two-component Bose-Einstein condensate can be described by a \emph{non-compact} real symplectic group . With this group, we can give a explicit form for the wavefunction in any time of the evolution, meanwhile, map this whole time evolution to a trajectory in a six-dimensional manifold. By introducing a polar coordinate, we can visualize this six-dimensional manifold in 2d unit disk and reveal the relation between the behavior of the trajectory in this manifold and the eigen-energies of the Hamiltonian. Furthermore, the time evolution of expectation value of a physical observable such as number operator is proven closely related to the behavior of the trajectory in this manifold.
