We consider a class of homogeneous manifolds including all semisimple coadjoint orbits. We describe manifolds of that class admitting deformation q uantizations equivariant under the action of $G$ and the corresponding quantum group. We…

Geometric quantization is an attempt at using the differential-geometric ingredients of classical phase spaces regarded as symplectic manifolds in order to define a corresponding quantum theory. Generally, the process of geometric…

We investigate classical integrable spins defined on the reduced phase spaces of coadjoint orbits of $G= SU(N)$ and study quantum mechanics of them. After discussions on a complete set of commuting functions on each orbit and construction…

In the context of Covariant Quantum Mechanics for a spin particle, we classify the ``quantum vector fields'', i.e. the projectable Hermitian vector fields of a complex bundle of complex dimension 2 over spacetime. Indeed, we prove that the…

We develop a mathematically well-defined path integral formalism for general symplectic manifolds. We argue that in order to make a path integral quantization covariant under general coordinate transformations on the phase space and involve…

Phase space is the state space of classical mechanics, and this manifold is normally endowed only with a symplectic form. The geometry of quantum mechanics is necessarily more complicated. Arguments will be given to show that augmenting the…

We examine several well known quantum spin models and categorize behavior of pairwise entanglement at quantum phase transitions. A unified picture on the connection between the entanglement and quantum phase transition is given.

We consider \Gamma-equivariant principal G-bundles over proper \Gamma-CW-complexes with prescribed family of local representations. We construct and analyze their classifying spaces for locally compact, second countable topological groups…

Let $LG$ be the loop group of a compact, connected Lie group $G$. We show that the tangent bundle of any proper Hamiltonian $LG$-space $\mathcal{M}$ has a natural completion $\overline{T}\mathcal{M}$ to a strongly symplectic…

Let $(M,g)$ be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold and $F_\lambda(M)$ the space of densities of degree $\lambda$ on $M$. We study the space $D^2_{\lambda,\mu}(M)$ of second-order differential operators from $F_\lambda(M)$ to $F_\mu(M)$. If $(M,g)$…

We develop a so-called theory of ensembles in phase space and use it to investigate the construction of a quantum-classical hybrid theory. We use Galilei covariance and the Lie algebra of the Galilei group as a guide to constructing the…

In this paper, we prove the equidistribution property of high-frequency eigensections of a certain series of unitary flat bundles, using the mixture of semiclassical and geometric quantizations.

In this expository article we give a categorical definition of the integral cohomology ring of a stack. We show that for quotient stacks the categorical cohomology may be identified with equivariant cohomology. Via this identification we…

We study how the spin-statistics theorem relates to the geometric structures on phase space that are introduced in quantisation procedures (namely a U(1) bundle and connection). The relation can be proved in both the relativistic and the…

The paper is devoted to quantization of polynomial momentum observables in the cotangent bundle of a smooth manifold. A quantization procedure is proposed allowing to quantize a wide class of functions which are polynomials of any order in…

Given a vector bundle $A\to M$ we study the geometry of the graded manifolds $T^*[k]A[1]$, including their canonical symplectic structures, compatible Q-structures and Lagrangian Q-submanifolds. We relate these graded objects to classical…

A G-equivariant spin^c structure on a manifold gives rise to a virtual representation of the group G, called the spin^c quantization of the manifold. We present a cutting construction for S^1-equivariant spin^c manifolds, and show that the…

Given an holomorphic Higgs bundle on a compact Riemann surface of genus greater than one, we construct a DQ-module supported by the spectral curve associated to this bundle. Then, we relate quantum curves arising in various situations…

A new pseudoclassical supersymmetrical model of a spinning particle in 2+1 dimensions is proposed. Different ways of its quantization are discussed. They all reproduce the minimal quantum theory of the particle.
