The Number-Phase Wigner Function in the Extended Fock Space

2006 
It is shown that the number-phase (or rotational) Wigner function is obtained from the Weyl symmetrization rule for the correspondence between classical functions and quantum operators. In spite of the complicated form of the commutator for the number and phase operators, the Weyl symmetrization rule is similar to that in the case of the position and momentum operators. In addition, it is found that the ordering of the number and phase operators also has the same structure as that for the position-momentum pair.
