TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on a method which is the analytic complement to the group theory point of view, and discuss the properties and time evolution of these states, always keeping in mind the desire to find quantum states which follow the classical motion.
Abstract: From the motivation of Schroedinger, that of finding states which follow the motion which a classical particle would have in a given potential, we discuss generalizations of the coherent states of the harmonic oscillator. We focus on a method which is the analytic complement to the group theory point of view. It uses a minimum uncertainty formalism as its basis. We discuss the properties and time evolution of these states, always keeping in mind the desire to find quantum states which follow the classical motion.
