Coherent states on the circle: semiclassical matrix elements in the context of Kummer functions and the Zak transformation

Abstract We extend former results for coherent states on the circle in the literature in two ways. On the one hand, we show that expectation values of fractional powers of momentum operators can be computed exactly analytically by means of Kummer’s confluent hypergeometric functions. Earlier, these expectation values have only …
