Coherent States on Lie Algebras: A Constructive Approach
Frank Antonsen
Abstract
We generalise the notion of coherent states to arbitrary Lie algebras by making an analogy with the GNS construction in C*-algebras. The method is illustrated with examples of semisimple and non-semisimple finite dimensional Lie algebras as well as loop and Kac-Moody algebras. A deformed addition on the parameter space is also introduced simplifying some expressions and some applications to conformal field theory is pointed out, e.g. are differential operator and free field realisations found. PACS: 02.20.S, 03.65.F, 11.25.H Keywords: coherent states, Lie and Kac-Moody algebras, realisations.
