In a previous paper Zhan et al. (2022) proposed the coherent state representation for linear operator, which shows a beautiful theoretical value. Inspired by the work, we further extend it to the nonlinear case, including single- and two-mode squeezing process. Based on squeezing operators’ transformation relation, we introduce their coherent state representations and derive their normal ordering forms by using the technique of integration within product of operator. As applications, we examine some operators’s normal ordering forms and show the entanglement property of prepared quantum states via the Schmidt decomposition. In particular, we further consider two cascaded two-mode squeezing operators, in which a generalized SU(1,1) interferometer is involved. In addition, the application of two-mode squeezing operator followed by photon-subtraction to generate non-Gaussian entangled states in quantum teleportation is discussed. Our results will be useful in preparation of quantum states and quantum metrology.
