    Coadjoint orbits of the Poincaré group in \(2+1\) dimensions and their coherent states (English)
    0 references
    The authors use a matrix representation of the \({2+}1\) Poincaré group \(G={\mathbb R}^{2,1}\rtimes SO(2,1)\) in order to study the structure of the coadjoint orbits of \(G\). They obtain a degenerate orbit, a two-sheeted hyperboloid and a cone. The results are applied to compute coherent states, in particular, on the hyperboloid and on the cone.
