Abstract
A general approach is formulated for analyzing algebraic models of quantum composite systems with an internal symmetry described by group G. The case G = SU(2) is examined in detail as applied to the analysis of polarization invariance in quantum optics. A new class of fully depolarizable quantum states of light (scalar biphotons) is defined and investigated. Certain interactions of scalar biphoton light with material media are considered in the context of Dicke and Jaynes-Cummings models.

G-invariant polynomial extensions of Lie algebras in quantum many-body physics

V P Karassiov
- 07 Jan 1994 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a new class of Lie-algebraic structures gd is revealed in some multi-particle processes of quantum physics having internal symmetry groups Ginv. They are extensions of some Lie algebras h (via coset construction) by G-invariant h-tensors v which are polynomials in boson operators.

Polarization structure of quantum light fields: a new insight. I. General outlook

V P Karassiov
- 07 Sep 1993 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the polarization structure of light was described by using the polarization gauge SU(2) invariance of free electromagnetic fields and a related concept of the polarization (P) spin, and new classes of unpolarized light states generated by P-scalar biphotons were examined.

Biphoton light with hidden polarization and its polarization tomography

TL;DR: In this paper, the Stokes operator formalism and the quasi-probability function were used to study the hidden polarization properties of biphoton light, emitted by an optical parametric oscillator, both theoretically and experimentally.

Coherence in Spontaneous Radiation Processes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered a radiating gas as a single quantum-mechanical system, and the energy levels corresponding to certain correlations between individual molecules were described, where spontaneous emission of radiation in a transition between two such levels leads to the emission of coherent radiation.

Theory of group representations and applications

TL;DR: The material collected in this book originated from lectures given by authors over many years in Warsaw, Trieste, Schladming, Istanbul, Goteborg and Boulder as discussed by the authors, and is highly recommended as a textbook for an advanced course in mathematical physics on Lie algebras, Lie groups and their representations.

The quantum group SUq(2) and a q-analogue of the boson operators

TL;DR: In this article, a new realisation of the quantum group SUq(2) is constructed by means of a q-analogue to the Jordan-Schwinger mapping, determining thereby both the complete representation structure and qanalogues to the Wigner and Racah operators.
