Pomeron Evolution and Squeezed States in Quantum Optics

Abstract

We apply the formalism of coherent states in quantum optics to pomeron evolution and show that evolving squeezed pomeron states are equivalent to pomeron fan diagrams at the leading order of perturbative expansion. Based on our results, we interpret the action of the displacement operator as pomeron propagation and the action of the squeeze operator as pomeron interaction.
