A deformed relativistic kinematics can be understood within a geometrical framework through a maximally symmetric momentum space. However, when considering this kind of approach, usually one works in a flat spacetime and in a curved…

We revisit the Schwarzschild singularity in a semiclassical setting where the background geometry is classical and quantum effects enter through Bohmian (quantal) trajectories associated with a Klein Gordon wave packet. Using the…

We consider the following construction of quantization. For a Riemannian manifold $M$ the space of forms on $T^*M$ is made into a space of (full) symbols of operators acting on forms on $M$. This gives rise to the composition of symbols,…

We study the quantum Riemannian geometry of quantum projective spaces of any dimension. In particular we compute the Riemann and Ricci tensors, using previously introduced quantum metrics and quantum Levi-Civita connections. We show that…

Associated to any (pseudo)-Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ is an $n+1$-dimensional noncommutative differential structure $(\Omega^1,\extd)$ on the manifold, with the extra dimension encoding the classical Laplacian as a…

In order to investigate to what extent the calculus of classical (pseudo-)Riemannian manifolds can be extended to a noncommutative setting, we introduce pseudo-Riemannian calculi of modules over noncommutative algebras. In this framework,…

We study the quantum sphere $C_q[S^2]$ as a quantum Riemannian manifold in the quantum frame bundle approach. We exhibit its 2-dimensional cotangent bundle as a direct sum $\Omega^{0,1}\oplus\Omega^{1,0}$ in a double complex. We find the…

We study conditions that the semiquantised Riemannian metric $g_Q$ and Levi-Civita connection $\nabla_Q$ have the same form as classical one in semiclassical theory. Concrete examples of semiclassical theory have been computed by Majid et…

These notes present an introduction to an analytic version of deformation quantization. The central point is to study algebras of physical observables and their irreducible representations. In classical mechanics one deals with real Poisson…

We reconsider the (non-relativistic) quantum theory of indistinguishable particles on the basis of Rieffel's notion of C*-algebraic (`strict') deformation quantization. Using this formalism, we relate the operator approach of Messiah and…

We show how characteristic classes determine equivariant prequantization bundles over the space of connections on a principal bundle. These bundles are shown to generalize the Chern-Simons line bundles to arbitrary dimensions. Our result…

One way of reconciling classical and quantum mechanics is deformation quantization, which involves deforming the commutative algebra of functions on a Poisson manifold to a non-commutative, associative algebra, reminiscent of the space of…
