Question: 10pt Consider the same 1D harmonic oscillator in Problem 1. Let Nbe the number operator and cdots be the thermalaverage ofan operator Aat thermal equilibrium

10pt Consider the same 1D harmonic oscillator in Problem 1. Let Nbe the number operator and cdots be the thermalaverage ofan operator Aat thermal equilibrium with temperature T=1kB. Prove that[N2]=2e-2Z[H]where His the Hamiltonian and Z=Tr[e-H]is the partition function. If you want, you may use the following relations.n=0e-an=ea22csch(a2)n=0ne-an=14csch2(a2)n=0n2e-an=14csch3(a2)cosh(a2)
