Abstract
A fermionic analog of a parametric amplifier is used to describe the joint quantum state of the two interacting fermionic modes. Based on a two-mode generalization of the time-dependent density operator, time evolution of the fermionic density operator is determined in terms of its two-mode Wigner and $P$ function. It is shown that the equation of motion of the Wigner function corresponds to a fermionic analog of Liouville's equation. The equilibrium density operator for fermionic fields developed by Cahill and Glauber is thus extended to a dynamical context to show that the mathematical structures of both the correlation functions and the weight factors closely resemble their bosonic counterpart. It has been shown that the fermionic correlation functions are marked by a characteristic upper bound due to Fermi statistics, which can be verified in the matter wave counterpart of photon down-conversion experiments.
