Stable coherent states
Antonia Zipfel, Thomas Thiemann · Physical review. D/Physical review. D. · 2016
We analyze the stability under time evolution of complexifier coherent states (CCS) in one-dimensional mechanical systems. A system of coherent states is called stable if it evolves into another coherent state. It turns out that a system can only possess stable CCS if the classical evolution of the variable $\mathbf{z}={e}^{\ensuremath{-}i{\mathcal{L}}_{{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{C}}}\mathbf{q}$ for a given complexifier $C$ depends only on $\mathbf{z}$ itself and not on its complex conjugate. This condition is very restrictive in general so that only a few systems exist that obey this condition. However, it is possible to access a wider class of models that in principle may allow for stable coherent states associated with certain regions in the phase space by introducing action-angle coordinates.
