Squeezing and higher-order squeezing of photon-added coherent states propagating in a Kerr-like medium

Abstract

We investigate the squeezing and higher-order squeezing properties of photon-added coherent states propagating through a Kerr-like medium, particularly close to instants of revivals and fractional revivals of the state. The Wigner functions at these instants are obtained, and the extent of non-classicality quantified.
