We introduce a group-theoretical extension of the Dicke model which describes an ensemble of two-level atoms interacting with a finite radiation field. The latter is described by a spin model whose main feature is that it possesses a maximum number of excitations. The approach adopted here leads to a nonlinear extension of the Dicke model that takes into account both an intensity dependent coupling between the atoms and the radiation field, and an additional nonlinear Kerr-like or P\"{o}sch-Teller-like oscillator term, depending on the degree of nonlinearity. We use the energy surface minimization method to demonstrate that the extended Dicke model exhibits a quantum phase transition, and we analyze its dependence upon the maximum number of excitations of the model. Our analysis is carried out via three methods: through mean-field analysis (i.e. by using the tensor product of coherent states), by using parity-preserving symmetry-adapted states (using the critical values obtained in the mean-field analysis and numerically minimizing the energy surface) and by means of the exact quantum solution (i.e. by numerically diagonalizing the Hamiltonian). Possible connections with the $qp$-deformed algebras are also discussed.

与有限辐射场相互作用的两能级原子的量子相变

我们介绍了 Dicke 模型的群论扩展,该模型描述了与有限辐射场相互作用的两能级原子的系综。后者由自旋模型描述,其主要特征是它拥有最大数量的激发。这里采用的方法导致 Dicke 模型的非线性扩展,该模型考虑了原子和辐射场之间的强度相关耦合,以及额外的非线性 Kerr 类或 P\"{o}sch-Teller 类振荡器项,取决于非线性程度。我们使用能量表面最小化方法来证明扩展的 Dicke 模型表现出量子相变,我们分析了它对模型最大激发数的依赖性。我们的分析是通过三种方法:通过平均场分析(i. e. 通过使用相干态的张量积),通过使用保持奇偶校验的对称适应状态(使用在平均场分析中获得的临界值并在数值上最小化能量表面)和通过精确的量子解(即通过数值计算)对角化哈密顿量)。还讨论了与 $qp$ 变形代数的可能联系。
