Abstract
We present a detailed derivation of the equations of evolution for the reduced density
operators (or the master equations) of coherently driven degenerate and nondegenerate
three-level lasers. Employing these equations we investigate the squeezing and statistical
properties of the light generated by both types of lasers. In both cases, we find that the
linear gain coefficient and the strength of the driving radiation highly affects the squeezing
and the statistical properties of the light
