Orthogonal polynomials attached to coherent states for the symmetric Poschl-Teller oscillator

Abstract: We consider a one-parameter family of nonlinear coherent states by replacing the factorial in coefficients of the canonical coherent states by a specific generalized factorial depending on a parameter gamma. These states are superposition of eigenstates of the Hamiltonian with a symmetric Poschl-Teller potential depending on a parameter nu > 1. The associated Bargmann-type transform is defined for equal parameters. Some results on the infinite square well potential are also derived. For some different values of gamma, we discuss two sets of orthogonal polynomials that are naturally attached to these coherent states.
