Unified approach to various quantum Rabi models witharbitrary parameters

A general approach is proposed to the quantum Rabi model and its several variants within the extended coherent states. The solutions to all these models including the anisotropy and the nonlinear Stark coupling are then obtained in an unified way. The essential characteristics such as the possible first-order phase transition can be detected analytically. This approach can be easily applied to the recent experiments with various tunable parameters without much additional effort, so it should be very helpful to the analysis of the experimental data.
