Entropy of shifted gaussian states

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

The entropy of shifted gaussian states of multimode optical fields is derived in a closed form using the diagonalization of a quadratic form through a symplectic transformation. The chaotic states are discussed from the point of view of the maximum entropy. Some application to higher order nonlinear processes is also examined.
