AbstractWe show that every Gaussian mixed quantum state can be disentangled by conjugation with a passive symplectic transformation, that is a metaplectic operator associated with a symplectic rotation. The main tools we use are the Werner–Wolf condition on covariance matrices and the symplectic covariance of Weyl quantization. Our result therefore complements a recent study by Lami, Serafini, and Adesso.

For an arbitrary linear combination of quantizations, the kernel of the inverse operator is constructed. An equation for the evolution of the Wigner function for an arbitrary linear quantization is derived and it is shown that only for Weyl quantization this equation does not contain a source of quasi-probability. Stationary solutions for the Wigner function of a harmonic oscillator are constructed, depending on the characteristic function of the quantization rule. In the general case of Hermitian linear quantization these solutions are real but not positive. We found the representation of Weyl quantization in the form of the limit of a sequence of linear Hermitian quantizations, such that for each element of this sequence the stationary solution of the Moyal equation is positive.

This work presents quantization of time of arrival functions using generalized Stratonovich-Weyl quantization. We take into account the ordering problems involved, mainly the Born-Jordan and the symmetric ordering schemes. We call attention to the combination of the group theoretic methods usually employed in Weyl quantization with the implementation of different ordering schemes via integral kernel factors. It is possible to, and we do, apply the Pegg-Barnett method to the quantization of time to address physical issues such as boundedness and self-adjointness.

In this work, we perform exact and concrete computations of star-product of functions on the Euclidean motion group in the plane, and list its $C$-star-algebra properties. The star-product of phase space functions is one of the main ingredients in phase space quantum mechanics, which includes Weyl quantization and the Wigner transform, and their generalizations. These methods have also found extensive use in signal and image analysis. Thus, the computations we provide here should prove very useful for phase space models where the Euclidean motion groups play the crucial role, for instance, in quantum optics.

We develop a quantization method, that we name decomposable Weyl quantization, which ensures that the constants of motion of a prescribed finite set of Hamiltonians are preserved by the quantization. Our method is based on a structural analogy between the notions of reduction of the classical phase space and diagonalization of selfadjoint operators. We obtain the spectral decomposition of the emerging quantum constants of motion directly from the quantization process. If a specific quantization is given, we expect that it preserves constants of motion exactly when it coincides with decomposable Weyl quantization on the algebra of constants of motion. We obtain a characterization of when such property holds in terms of the Wigner transforms involved. We also explain how our construction can be applied to spectral theory. Moreover, we discuss how our method opens up new perspectives in formal deformation quantization and geometric quantization.
