Abstract
"The possibility of describing noncommuting operators in quantum mechanics by classical type functions, and the associated expression of operator multiplication, is of considerable interest. The well known Wigner-Weyl-Moyal theory is an important example. Another is the diagonal representation of operators using standard coherent states. We develop general necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the diagonal representation in the context of a family of generalised coherent states associated with any unitary irreducible Lie group representation. Several examples illustrating these conditions, and interesting results in the Heisenberg-Weyl case, are presented".
