When dealing with the classical limit of two quantum mechanical oscillators on a noncommutative configuration space, the limits corresponding to the removal of configuration-space noncommutativity and position-momentum noncommutativity do not commute. We address this behaviour from the point of view of the phase-space localisation properties of the Wigner functions of coherent states under the two limits.

A wide class of single-variable holomorphic representation spaces are constructed that are associated with very general sets of coherent states defined without the use of transitively acting groups. These representations and states are used to define coherent-state path integrals involving phase-space manifolds having one Killing vector but a quite general curvature otherwise.

The s-parameterized charactristic function for the superposition of squeezed coherent states (SCS's) is given. The s-parameterized distribution functions for the superposition of SCS's are investigated. Various moments are calculated by using this charactristic function. The Glauber second-order coherence function is calculated. The photon number distribution of the superposition of SCS's studied. Analytical and numerical results for the quadrature component distributions for the superposition of a pair of SCS's are presented. The phase distribution calculated from the integration of s-parameterized distribution function over the phase space. A generation scheme is discussed.

This paper discusses the canonical quantization of (1+1)-dimensional Yang–Mills theory on a spacetime cylinder from the point of view of coherent states, or equivalently, the Segal–Bargmann transform. Before gauge symmetry is imposed, the coherent states are simply ordinary coherent states labeled by points in an infinite-dimensional linear phase space. Gauge symmetry is imposed by projecting the original coherent states onto the gauge-invariant subspace, using a suitable regularization procedure. We obtain in this way a new family of "reduced" coherent states labeled by points in the reduced phase space, which in this case is simply the cotangent bundle of the structure group K. The main result explained here, obtained originally in a joint work of the author with B. Driver, is this: The reduced coherent states are precisely those associated to the generalized Segal–Bargmann transform for K, as introduced by the author from a different point of view. This result agrees with that of K. Wren, who uses a different method of implementing the gauge symmetry. The coherent states also provide a rigorous way of making sense out of the quantum Hamiltonian for the unreduced system. Various related issues are discussed, including the complex structure on the reduced phase space and the question of whether quantization commutes with reduction.
