We introduce geometric quantization in the setting of shifted symplectic structures. We define Lagrangian fibrations and prequantizations of shifted symplectic stacks and their geometric quantization. In addition, we study many examples…
The geometry of the classical phase space C of a finite number of degrees of freedom determines the possible duality symmetries of the corresponding quantum mechanics. Under duality we understand the relativity of the notion of a quantum…
We study generalised quantum waveguides in the presence of moderate and strong external magnetic fields. Applying recent results on the adiabatic limit of the connection Laplacian we show how to construct and compute effective Hamiltonians…
We prove that any abelian surface defined over $\Q$ of $GL_2$-type having quaternionic multiplication and good reduction at 3 is modular. We generalize the result to higher dimensional abelian varieties with ``sufficiently many…
States of a quantum mechanical system are represented by rays in a complex Hilbert space. The space of rays has, naturally, the structure of a K\"ahler manifold. This leads to a geometrical formulation of the postulates of quantum mechanics…
Given an irreducible representation of $SL_2(F_q)$ for an odd prime $q\geq 5$, we find the dimension of the space of cusp forms with respect to the full modular group taking values in the representation space. The dimension equals the…
This paper presents a new approach to phase space trajectories in quantum mechanics. A Moyal description of quantum theory is used, where observables and states are treated as classical functions on a classical phase space. A quantum…
We consider the $SL(2,R)$ action on moduli spaces of quadratic differentials. If $\mu$ is an $SL(2,R)$-invariant probability measure, crucial information about the associated representation on $L^2(\mu)$ (and in particular, fine asymptotics…
The quantum mechanical version of a classical model for studying the orientational degrees of freedom corresponding to a nematic liquid composed of biaxial molecules is presented. The effective degrees of freedom are described by operators…
We develop a $GL_{qp}(2)$ invariant differential calculus on a two-dimensional noncommutative quantum space. Here the co-ordinate space for the exterior quantum plane is spanned by the differentials that are commutative (bosonic) in nature.
The Laplace operator encodes the behavior of physical systems at vastly different scales, describing heat flow, fluids, as well as electric, gravitational, and quantum fields. A key input for the Laplace equation is the curvature of space.…
We review the status of a program, outlined and motivated in the introduction, for the study of correspondences between spectral invariants of partially hyperbolic flows on locally symmetric spaces and their quantizations. Further we…
In this paper we generalize a theorem of Kudla-Rapoport-Yang which gives a formula for the arithmetic degree of the moduli space of CM elliptic curves together with a special endomorphism of a specified degree. Our extension is to the…
We classify parallelizable noncommutative manifold structures on finite sets of small size in the general formalism of framed quantum manifolds and vielbeins introduced previously. The full moduli space is found for $\le 3$ points, and a…
We present a reformulation of quantum mechanics in terms of probability measures and functions on a general classical sample space and in particular in terms of probability densities and functions on phase space. The basis of our proceeding…
We use a recent formalism of quantum geodesics in noncommutative geometry to construct geodesic flow on the infinite chain $\cdots\bullet$--$\bullet$--$\bullet\cdots$. We find that noncommutative effects due to the discretisation of the…
While kinetic helicity is not Galilean invariant locally, it is known (K. Moffatt, Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 35, 117 (1969)) that its spatial integral quantifies the degree of knottedness of vorticity field lines. Being a topological…
We construct a quantization of the moduli space $\mathcal{GH}_\Lambda(S\times\mathbb{R})$ of maximal globally hyperbolic Lorentzian metrics on $S\times \mathbb{R}$ with constant sectional curvature $\Lambda$, for a punctured surface $S$.…
It is shown that the helicity of three dimensional viscous incompressible flow can be identified with the overall linking of the fluid's initial vorticity to the expectation of a stochastic mean field limit. The relevant mean field limit is…
In this paper we give a new proof of the Quantum Unique Ergodicity conjecture for holomorphic integral weight modular forms on the upper half plane. The proof requires only partial results towards the Ramanujan conjecture and the shifted…
