The numerical treatment of quantum mechanics in the semi-classical regime is known to be computationally demanding, due to the highly oscillatory behaviour of the wave function and its large spatial extension. A recently proposed…
We use quantum and Floer homology to construct (partial) quasi-morphisms on the universal cover of the group of compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms for a certain class of non-closed strongly semi-positive symplectic manifolds…
The quantum Fourier transform (QFT) is a fundamental primitive in quantum computation and quantum information. In this work, we generalize the QFT for finite groups to a QFT for finite-dimensional semisimple algebras, and give efficient…
For a class of symplectic manifolds, we introduce a functional which assigns a real number to any pair of continuous functions on the manifold. This functional has a number of interesting properties. On the one hand, it is Lipschitz with…
We study classical solutions (existence, uniqueness, and explicit solution operator) for homogeneous, linear, and semilinear abstract Volterra integral equations of wave type with almost sectorial operators. We use a functional calculus for…
We review the prequantization procedure in the context of super symplectic manifolds with a symplectic form which is not necessarily homogeneous. In developing the theory of non homogeneous symplectic forms, there is one surprising result:…
A set of semi-analytical techniques based on Fourier analysis is used to solve wave scattering problems in variously shaped waveguides with varying normal admittance boundary conditions. Key components are newly developed conformal mapping…
For a class of closed manifolds N, we construct a family of functions on the Hamiltonian group G of the cotangent bundle T*N. These restrict to homogeneous quasi-morphisms on the subgroup generated by Hamiltonians with support in a given…
For a closed connected manifold N, we construct a family of functions on the Hamiltonian group G of the cotangent bundle T^*N, and a family of functions on the space of smooth functions with compact support on T^*N. These satisfy properties…
One way to geometrically encode the singularities of a stratified pseudomanifold is to endow its interior with an iterated fibred cusp metric. For such a metric, we develop and study a pseudodifferential calculus generalizing the…
Shor's algorithms for factorization and discrete logarithms on a quantum computer employ Fourier transforms preceding a final measurement. It is shown that such a Fourier transform can be carried out in a semi-classical way in which a…
The composition of the Fourier transform in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with a suitable pseudodifferential operator is called a Fourier operator. It is compact in appropriate function spaces. The paper deals with its spectral theory. This is based on…
We use the functorial properties of Rieffel's pseudodifferential calculus to study families of operators associated to topological dynamical systems acted by a symplectic space. Information about the spectra and the essential spectra are…
We introduce a new kind of groupoid--a pseudo \'etale groupoid, which provides many interesting examples of noncommutative Poisson algebras as defined by Block, Getzler, and Xu. Following the idea that symplectic and Poisson geometries are…
We illustrate the composition properties for an extended family of SG Fourier integral operators. We prove continuity results for operators in this class with respect to $L^2$ and weighted modulation spaces, and discuss continuity on…
In some previous papers we have defined and studied a 'magnetic' pseudodifferential calculus as a gauge covariant generalization of the Weyl calculus when a magnetic field is present. In this paper we extend the standard Fourier Integral…
In this article, a class of Fourier Integral Operators which converge to the unitary group of the Schr\"odinger equation in semiclassical limit $\epsilon\to 0$ is constructed. The convergence is in the uniform operator norm and allows for a…
Categorical symplectic geometry is the study of a rich collection of invariants of symplectic manifolds, including the Fukaya $A_\infty$-category, Floer cohomology, and symplectic cohomology. Beginning with work of Wehrheim and Woodward in…
We generalize the results for Banach algebras of pseudodifferential operators obtained by Gr\"ochenig and Rzeszotnik in [24] to quasi-algebras of Fourier integral operators. Namely, we introduce quasi-Banach algebras of symbol classes for…
A surjective submersion $\pi : M \to B$ carrying a field of simplectic structures on the fibres is symplectic if this Poisson structure is minimal. A symplectic submersion may be interpreted as a family of mechanical systems depending on a…
