A. Kuriyama et al., On the Schwinger boson representation of an extended (M+1)(N+1)-dimensional algebra containing the su(M+1)- and the su(N, 1)-algebra, PROG T PHYS, 103(2), 2000, pp. 285-303
With the aim of describing statistically mixed states in realistic many-bod
y systems, the su(n)- and the su(n, 1)-algebra in the Schwinger boson repre
sentation are presented in a form generalized from the su(2)- and the su(1,
1)-algebra. The generators of the two algebras are expressed in terms of c
ertain bilinear forms for boson operators. Some concrete examples are discu
ssed in detail.
