A comparative study of higher-order nonclassicalities of photon-added-then-subtracted and photon-subtracted-then-added quantum states

Abstract

In the present paper, we have studied the higher as well as the lower-order nonclassicalities of photon-added-then-subtracted and photon-subtracted-then-added thermal and even coherent states. Different criteria such as Mandel's function ($Q_M^{(l)}$), higher-order antibunching ($d_h^{(l-1)}$), sub-Poissonian photon statistics ($D_h^{(l-1)}$), higher-order squeezing ($S^{(l)}$), Husimi function ($Q$), Agarwal-Tara criteria ($A_3$) and Klyshko's condition ($B(m)$) are used to witness the nonclassical feature of these states. Many of these conditions established that the considered states are highly nonclassical. It is also realized that the non-Gaussian photon-addition-then-subtraction operation is preferred over the photon-subtraction-then-addition for developing nonclassicality.
