Abstract

This communication concerns the question of exponentials of quadratic polynomials of field operators on Fock space. This is done considering a complexification of the classical case of anti-symmetric Hamiltonians. The general quadratic polynomials are unbounded operators without properties of symmetry, and will be considered as a projective representation dΞ of some Lie algebra o2,c (H) of bounded operators S. We produce an explicit formula for the expo-nential exp (zdΞS) for z ∈ B \(\left( {0;\frac{1}{{3\left\| S \right\|}}} \right) \) and differentiating this, we find that exp (dΞ) is well defined on the Fock algebra.
