Quantum Optics can often require messy algebraic simplifications of noncommuting operators (usually ladder operators and commutators). I've asked here about how to do it before.

What are some modern techniques for doing quantum optics calculations in Mathematica?

I know of this old quantum mechanics package. I've tried to use it many times and haven't really managed to get something that feels actually useful as compared to working it out by hand.

Another suggestion at the time was to use the NCAlgebra package.

Any other ideas?

    $\begingroup$ May be you can, as a preamble, write a community post about representative calculations in your field of expertise and how Mathematica and other relevant packages have helped you so far. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 8, 2024 at 6:04

    $\begingroup$ Explicit examples with input and desired output would be helpful. Absent such, this really does not seem like a complete question for MSE purposes. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 9, 2024 at 1:10

    $\begingroup$ It seems like it might be better suited for Wolfram Community. MSE is intended for more specific types of questions (or at least that’s my understanding). $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 9, 2024 at 3:30
