Segal-Bargmann Transforms Associated to a Family of Coupled Supersymmetries

Abstract: The Segal-Bargmann transform is a Lie algebra and Hilbert space isomorphism between real and complex representations of the oscillator algebra. The Segal-Bargmann transform is useful in time-frequency analysis as it is closely related to the short-time Fourier transform. The Segal-Bargmann space provides a useful example of a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. Coupled supersymmetries (coupled SUSYs) are generalizations of the quantum harmonic oscillator that have a built-in supersymmetric nature and enjoy similar properties to the quantum harmonic oscillator. In this paper, we will develop Segal-Bargmann transforms for a specific class of coupled SUSYs which includes the quantum harmonic oscillator as a special case. We will show that the associated Segal-Bargmann spaces are distinct from the usual Segal-Bargmann space: their associated weight functions are no longer Gaussian and are spanned by stricter subsets of the holomorphic polynomials. The coupled SUSY Segal-Bargmann spaces provide new examples of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces.
