For a q-deformed harmonic oscillator, the product of the coordinate-momentum uncertainties in q-oscillator eigenstates and coherent states was shown in this paper.
Abstract
For a q-deformed harmonic oscillator, we find explicit coordinate representations of the creation and annihilation operators, eigenfunctions, and coherent states (the last being defined as eigenstates of the annihilation operator). We calculate the product of the “coordinate-momentum” uncertainties in q-oscillator eigenstates and in coherent states. For the oscillator, this product is minimum in the ground state and equals 1/2, as in the standard quantum mechanics. For coherent states, the q-deformation results in a violation of the standard uncertainty relation; the product of the coordinate-and momentum-operator uncertainties is always less than 1/2. States with the minimum uncertainty, which tends to zero, correspond to the values of λ near the convergence radius of the q-exponential.

Quons, coherent states and intertwining operators

TL;DR: In this article, a differential representation for the operators satisfying the q-mutation relation BB−qB†B=1 is proposed, which generalizes a recent result by Eremin and Meldianov, and discuss in detail this choice in the limit q→1.

Deformed quons and bi-coherent states

TL;DR: In this article, a q-mutation relation can be deformed replacing a pair of conjugate operators with two other and unrelated operators, as it is done in the construction of pseudo-fermions, pseudo-bosons and truncated pseudo-booms.
