On representations of Lie algebras of a generalized Tavis-Cummings model (Q1864544)

Summary: Consider the Lie algebras \(L_{r,t}^{s}:[ K_{1},K_{2}] = sK_{3}\), \([K_{3},K_{2}] = -rK_{2}\), \([K_{3},K_{4}] = 0\), \([K_{4},K_{1}] = -tK_{1}\), and \([K_{4},K_{2}] = tK_{2}\), subject to the physical conditions, \(K_3\) and \(K_4\) are real diagonal operators representing energy, \(K_2 = K_{1}^{\dagger}\), and the Hamiltonian \(H =\omega_{1}K_{3} + (\omega_{1}+\omega_{2})K_{4} +\lambda(t)(K_{1}e^{-i\phi}+K_{2}e^{i\phi})\) is a Hermitian operator. Matrix representations are discussed and faithful representations of least degree for \(L_{r,t}^{s}\) satisfying the physical requirements are given for appropriate values of \(r,s,t\in\mathbb{R}\).
