Abstract

The semiclassical evolution of the generalized SU(2) Wigner function for quantum systems with a variable number of excitations is discussed in detail. It is shown that in the framework of the Liouvillian approach quantum dynamics can be approximately described in terms of classical trajectories on an appropriate four-dimensional symplectic manifold. The analysis of this manifold allows the introduction of a phase-like observable that can be interpreted as a relative phase ‘between’ invariant subspaces.
