Gazeau- Klouder Coherent states on a sphere

Abstract

In this paper, we construct the Gazeau-Klauder coherent states of a two- dimensional harmonic oscillator on a sphere based on two equivalent approaches. First, we consider the oscillator on the sphere as a deformed (non-degenerate) one-dimensional oscillator. Second, the oscillator on the sphere is considered as the usual (degenerate) two--dimensional oscillator. Then, by investigating the quantum optical properties of the constructed coherent states, we study the effect of the space curvature on the properties of the constructed sphere Gazeau-Klauder coherent states, according to these two approaches.
