Abstract

For compact quantizable K\"ahler manifolds certain naturally defined star products and their constructions are reviewed. The presentation centers around the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization scheme which is explained. As star products the Berezin-Toeplitz, Berezin, and star product of geometric quantization are treated in detail. It is shown that all three are equivalent. A prominent role is played by the Berezin transform and its asymptotic expansion. A few ideas on two general constructions of star products of separation of variables type by Karabegov and by Bordemann--Waldmann respectively are given. Some of the results presented is work of the author partly joint with Martin Bordemann, Eckhard Meinrenken and Alexander Karabegov. At the end some works which make use of graphs in the construction and calculation of these star products

39 pages, Based on a talk presented in the frame of the Thematic Program on Quantization, Spring 2011, at the University of Notre Dame, USA. In the revised version some additional references are given in relation to the role of the metaplectic correction and quotients. Also now there is an additional section about applications and related references
