HW5.nb HW #5. Harmonic Oscillator (a) We rewrite the Hamiltonian H m x using a x i, a x i. We first calculate a a x i x i x i, x m Ω x. m Ω Therefore, Ω a a x Ω m, and hence H Ωa a. (b) The ground state condition a 0 0 can be written in the osition reresentation as x a 0 x x i 0 x i i d x 0 0, d x and hence x d d x Ψ 0 x 0. This equation can be solved easily and we find Ψ 0 x N e x. To normalize the wave function, we comute e x d x Π. Therefore, the correctly normalized ground state wave function is Ψ 0 x Π 4 e x. The shae of the wave function is Ψ 0 x_ : 4 Π E x

Starting with the exectation values, x n x n n a a n n n n n n. Because of the orthonormality of the Hamiltonian eigenstates n m n, m,

HW5.nb 4 x 0. Moving on to the variance, x n a a n n a a a a n, n N a, a n n. x n. From the definitions of the annihilation and creation oerators, we can solve for, i a a. Together with the exression for x from the revious roblem, you can easily verify x, i. Starting with the exectation values, n n i n a a n, 0. Moving on to the variance, n a a n n a a a a n, n N a, a n n. n. Therefore, x n. The ground state n 0 is a minimum uncertainty state, while the excited states have larger uncertainties.

HW5.nb 5 (e) There are many ways to show this. First of all, using the relation a n n n, we can show that a n 0 n n by recursion. It obviously holds for n. If it holds for n, the n th one is a n 0 a a n 0 a n n n n n n n, and it holds again. Therefore, it holds for all n. Using the definition f e f a we can write it as Then f 0 e f ne f. n n a n 0 e f, a f a ne f n n e f, n n n where the summation is now taken only from i because i 0 term vanishes by a 0 0. Continuing on, a f n e f me f, n n m 0 m where the dummy variable was chgned to m n. Pulling one factor of f out of the sum, f m a f f m 0 f m me f f f. m Another way to show the same result is by first showing the relation a, a n na n. It obviously holds for n. If it holds for n, the n th one is a, a n a, a a n a, a a n a a, a n a n a na n n a n and hence it holds as well. Therefore, it holds for any n. Starting with the definition f e f a 0 e f f n n a n 0e f, f a f a n n a n 0e f f n n a, a n 0e f, Here, we used the fact a 0 0. Using the relation shown above, f a f n n n n a n 0e f f n n n a n 0e f, where the summation is now taken only from i because i 0 term vanishes by a, 0. Changing the dummy variable to m n, f a f m a m 0e f, m 0 m a f f m 0 f m m a m 0e f f f. Finally, we verify the normalization, f f e f f m m 0 m n 0 am a n 0. Consider a acting on the left and a acting on the right, again by orthonormality we must have m n, so f f e f f n n n n nn e f f n n e n f e f

HW5.nb 6 Finally, we verify the normalization, f f e f f m m 0 m n 0 am a n 0. Consider a acting on the left and a acting on the right, again by orthonormality we must have m n, so f f e f f n n n n nn e f f n n e n f e f f f. (f) Using the result from (d), f x f f a a f f f Re f. Here, we used the fact f a f f, obtained by taking the hermitian conjugate of a f f f. Similarly, using the result from (e), f f f i a a f i f f Im f. Now on the variance, f x f f a a f f a a a a a a f f a a, a a a a f f f f f f f and hence x. Similarly, f f f a a f f a a a a a a f f a a, a a a a f f f f f f f and hence. Therefore, x and hence the coherent state is a minimum uncertainty state for any f. (g) [otional] We take the solution from Eq.

We see that they are indeed the same Simlifyresa resd Ψfx ; 0 (h) The Heisenberg equation of motion is i d d t x x, H x, m i m, i d, H, d t x i x. There are many ways to solve these couled equations. One way is to use the exonential of a matrix. Write the equations in the matrix form, d d t x Ω Ω 0 x 0 x. Therefore, x t ex 0 i x i Ω t 0 exσ i 0 i Ω t x 0. Here, Σ is one of the Pauli matrices. The exonential factor can be worked out using its Taylor exansion, exσ i Ω t n Σ n i Ω t n. It is easy to check that Σ, and hence Σ even, Σ odd Σ. Therefore, exσ i Ω t, even n i Ω tn, odd n Σ i Ω t n cos Ω t i Σ sin Ω t cos Ω t sin Ω t sin Ω t cos Ω t. We find the solution x t cos Ω t sin Ω t sin Ω t cos Ω t x 0 x0cos Ω t 0sin Ω t x0sin Ω t 0cos Ω t. Using this solution, we calculate the exectation values, xt f xt f f x0cos Ω t 0 sin Ω t f Re f cos Ω t Im f sin Ω t

(i) [otional] The Schrödinger equation gives n, t e i H t n e i Ωnt n e i Ωnt n. Using what we showed above, f n, n its time evolution is f, t e i H t n n n f e i Ω t n n nei Ωnt ne i Ω t f e i Ω t i Ω t e f, t f e i Ω t e i Ω t. where the coherent state in the last exression has the eigenvalue a f e i Ω t f e i Ω t f e i Ω t.
