Strong convergence of a resolution of the identity via canonical coherent states

Abstract

A resolution of the identity due to canonical coherent states is often proven in the weak operator topology. However, such a resolution with an integral symbol is typically supposed to hold in the strong operator topology associated with the framework of the spectral theorem. We provide an elementary proof of the strong convergence for the resolution of the identity due to canonical coherent states starting with a mostly familiar setup. Further, we enjoy a different proof and show that the relevant uniform limit does not exist.
