Normal and anti-normal ordered expressions for annihilation and creation operators
Abstract
We give the normal and anti-normal order expressions of the number operator to the power k by using the commutation relation between the annihilation and creation operators. We use those expressions to give general formulae for functions of the number operator in normal and anti-normal order.
