Geometrically, quantum mechanics is defined by a complex line bundle $L_\hbar$ over the classical particle phase space $T^*{R}^3\cong{R}^6$ with coordinates $x^a$ and momenta $p_a$, $a,...=1,2,3$. This quantum bundle $L_\hbar$ is endowed…
The method of separation of variables is shown to apply to both the classical and quantum Neumann model. In the classical case this nicely yields the linearization of the flow on the Jacobian of the spectral curve. In the quantum case the…
