Husimi's Q-function isotonic oscillator in a generalized negative binomial states representation

Abstract

While considering a class of generalized negative binomial states, we verify that the basic minimum properties for these states to be considered as coherent states are satisfied. We particularize them for the case of the Hamiltonian of the isotonic oscillator and we determine the corresponding Husimi's Q-function. This function may be used to determine a lower bound for the thermodynamical potential of the Hamiltonian by applying a Berezin-Lieb inequality
