Abstract

Let E(x), for x in a 2d-dimensional phase space, be an irreducible Weyl system, and Rto R a convex function with 0)=0. We discuss the maximum of int dx|ltE(x)psi) with respect to unit vectors psi. When t)=tlt pltinfty the maximum is attained if and only if phi and psi are coherent states with respect to the same quadratic form. We show that this statement is not correct for more general convex functions Phi.
