Abstract: Corresponding to a hypergraph $G$ with $d$ vertices, a quantum hypergraph state is defined by $|Gangle=frac1sqrt{2}^{d}su{m}_{n=0}^{2^d-1}(-1{)}^{f(n)}|nangle$, where $f$ is a $d$-variable Boolean function depending on the hypergraph $G$, and $|nangle$ denotes a binary vector of length $2^d$ with $1$ at $n$-th position for $n=0,1,dots(2^d-1)$. The non-classical properties of these states are studied. We consider annihilation and creation operator on the Hilbert space of dimension $2^d$ acting on the number states $|nangle:n=0,1,dots(2^d-1)$. The Hermitian number and phase operators, in finite dimensions, are constructed. The number-phase uncertainty for these states leads to the idea of phase squeezing. We establish that these states are squeezed in the phase quadrature only and satisfy the Agarwal-Tara criterion for non-classicality, which only depends on the number of vertices of the hypergraphs. We also point out that coherence is observed in the phase quadrature.
