Ladder operators and coherent states for multi-step supersymmetric rational extensions of the truncated oscillator
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We construct ladder operators, C̃ and C̃†, for a multistep rational extension of the harmonic oscillator on the half plane, x ≥ 0. These ladder operators connect all states of the spectrum in only infinite-dimensional representations of their polynomial Heisenberg algebra. For comparison, we also construct two different classes of ladder operator acting on this system that form finite-dimensional as well as infinite-dimensional representations of their respective polynomial Heisenberg algebras. For the rational extension, we construct the position wavefunctions in terms of exceptional orthogonal polynomials. For a particular choice of parameters and for the three lowest weights μ = −5, −3, and 5, we construct the coherent states, eigenvectors of C̃ with generally complex eigenvalues, z, as superposition of subsets of the energy eigenvectors. Then, we calculate the properties of these coherent states, looking for classical or nonclassical behavior. We calculate the energy expectations as functions of |z|. We plot position probability densities for the coherent states and for the even and odd cat states formed from these coherent states. We plot the Wigner functions for a particular choice of z. For these coherent states on one arm of a beamsplitter, we calculate the two excitation number distributions and the linear entropies of the output states. We plot the standard deviations in x and find squeezing in the regime considered in one of the cases. By plotting the Mandel Q parameters for the coherent states as functions of |z|, we find that the number statistics is sub-Poissonian in all cases.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
