Abstract

We perform the exact numerical diagonalization of the Hamiltonians that describe both degenerate and nondegenerate parametric amplifiers, by exploit- ing the conservation laws pertaining each device. We clarify the conditions under which the parametric approximation holds, showing that the most relevant require- ment is the coherence of the pump after the interaction, rather than its undepletion.
