The problem of quantizing the canonical pair angle and action variables phi and I is almost as old as quantum mechanics itself and since decades a strongly debated but still unresolved issue in quantum optics. The present paper proposes a…
Noncommutative quantum mechanics on the plane has been widely studied in the literature. Here, we consider the problem using Isham's canonical group quantization scheme for which the primary object is the symmetry group that underlies the…
The group theoretical quantization scheme is reconsidered by means of elementary systems. Already the quantization of a particle on a circle shows that the standard procedure has to be supplemented by an additional condition on the…
The paper is devoted to integral quantization, a procedure based on operator-valued measure and resolution of the identity. We insist on covariance properties in the important case where group representation theory is involved. We also…
The Teichm\"uller space of punctured surfaces with the Weil-Petersson symplectic structure and the action of the mapping class group is realized as the Hamiltonian reduction of a finite dimensional symplectic space where the mapping class…
Covariant affine integral quantization is studied and applied to the motion of a particle in a punctured plane R^2_\ast=R^2\{0}, for which the phase space is R^2_\ast=R^2\{0}X R^2. We examine the consequences of different quantizer…
The canonical group quantization approach has been used to study noncommutative graphene in the presence of dual magnetic fields. The canonical group for the phase space $\mathbb{R}^2\times \mathbb{R}^2$ with both symmetric and Landau dual…
This article is a survey of recent work of the authors developing a new approach to quantization based on the equivariance with respect to some Lie group of symmetries. Examples are provided by conformal and projective differential…
We canonically quantize a Poisson manifold to a Lie 2-groupoid, complete with a quantization map, and show that it relates geometric and deformation quantization: the perturbative expansion in $\hbar$ of the (formal) convolution of two…
In the Hamiltonian approach on a single spatial plaquette, we construct a quantum (lattice) gauge theory which incorporates the classical singularities. The reduced phase space is a stratified K\"ahler space, and we make explicit the…
We review several procedures of quantization formulated in the framework of (classical) phase space M. These quantization methods consider Quantum Mechanics as a "deformation" of Classical Mechanics by means of the "transformation" of the…
The Hilbert space of a free massless particle moving on a group manifold is studied in details using canonical quantisation. While the simplest model is invariant under a global symmetry, $G \times G$, there is a very natural way to…
We analyze classical and quantum dynamics of a particle in 2d spacetimes with constant curvature which are locally isometric but globally different. We show that global symmetries of spacetime specify the symmetries of physical phase-space…
Following a recent group theoretical quantization of the symplectic space S={(phi in R mod 2pi, p>0)} in terms of irreducible unitary representations of the group SO(1,2) the present paper proposes an application of those results to the old…
We compute the factorisation homology of the four-punctured sphere and punctured torus over the quantum group $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ explicitly as categories of equivariant modules using the framework of `Integrating Quantum…
We develop a wave mechanics formalism for qubit geometry using holomorphic functions and Mobius transformations, providing a geometric perspective on quantum computation. This framework extends the standard Hilbert space description,…
The mapping class group $\Gamma^k(N_g)$ of a non-orientable surface with punctures is studied via classical homotopy theory of configuration spaces. In particular, we obtain a non-orientable version of the Birman exact sequence. In the case…
Consider a locally compact group $G=Q\ltimes V$ such that $V$ is abelian and the action of $Q$ on the dual abelian group $\hat V$ has a free orbit of full measure. We show that such a group $G$ can be quantized in three equivalent ways: (1)…
The question how to quantize a classical system where an angle phi is one of the basic canonical variables has been controversial since the early days of quantum mechanics. The problem is that the angle is a multivalued or discontinuous…
We develop the non-perturbative reduced phase space quantization of causal diamonds in (2+1)-dimensional gravity with a nonpositive cosmological constant. In Part I we described the classical reduction process and the reduced phase space,…
