We introduce the Poisson bracket operator which is an alternative quantum counterpart of the Poisson bracket. This operator is defined using the operator derivative formulated in quantum analysis and is equivalent to the Poisson bracket in…
The notion of the genus of a quadratic form is generalized to vertex operator algebras. We define it as the modular braided tensor category associated to a suitable vertex operator algebra together with the central charge. Statements…

We construct, for a homogeneous Lagrangian of arbitrary order in two independent variables, a differential 2-form with the property that it is closed precisely when the Lagrangian is null. This is similar to the property of the `fundamental…
A representation theorem for non-semibounded Hermitian quadratic forms in terms of a (non-semibounded) self-adjoint operator is proven. The main assumptions are closability of the Hermitian quadratic form, the direct integral structure of…
We introduce a variational setting for the action functional of an autonomous and indefinite Lagrangian on a finite dimensional manifold. Our basic assumption is the existence of an infinitesimal symmetry whose Noether charge is the sum of…

Given a Lie group $G$ of quantized canonical transformations acting on the space $L^2(M)$ over a closed manifold $M$, we define an algebra of so-called $G$-operators on $L^2(M)$. We show that to $G$-operators we can associate symbols in…
We characterize isometric actions on compact Kaehler manifolds admitting a Lagrangian orbit, describing under which condition the Lagrangian orbit is unique. We furthermore give the complete classification of simple groups acting on the…
In a 1+1 dimensional model of plane gravitational waves the flux-holonomy algebra of loop quantum gravity is modified in such a way that the new basic operators satisfy canonical commutation relations. Thanks to this construction it is…
The paper contains a differential-geometric foundations for an attempt to formulate Lagrangian (canonical) quantum field theory on fibre bundles. In it the standard Hilbert space of quantum field theory is replace with a Hilbert bundle; the…
We discuss a generalization of Kummer construction which, on the base of an integral representation of a finite group and local resolution of its quotient, produces a higher dimensional variety with trivial canonical class. As an…
We give a geometric interpretation of the Siegel operators for holomorphic differential forms on Siegel modular varieties. This involves extension of the differential forms over a toroidal compactification, and we show that the Siegel…
The process of canonical quantization is redefined so that the classical and quantum theories coexist when \hbar>0, just as they do in the real world. This analysis not only supports conventional procedures, it also reveals new quantization…
We extend to manifolds endowed with a general geometric structure, the classical notions of gradient as well as Laplace operator, and provide some of their natural properties.
Let $M$ be a closed symplectic manifold and $L \subset M$ a Lagrangian submanifold. Denote by $[L]$ the homology class induced by $L$ viewed as a class in the quantum homology of $M$. The present paper is concerned with properties and…
Given a symplectic manifold M, we consider a category with objects finite ordered families of Lagrangian submanifolds of M (subject to certain additional constraints) and with morphisms Lagrangian cobordisms relating them. We construct a…
We consider odd Laplace operators acting on densities of various weight on an odd Poisson (= Schouten) manifold $M$. We prove that the case of densities of weight 1/2 (half-densities) is distinguished by the existence of a unique odd…
