Canonical quantization may be approached from several different starting points. The usual approaches involve promotion of c-numbers to q-numbers, or path integral constructs, each of which generally succeeds only in Cartesian coordinates.…
Covariant integral quantisation using coherent states for semidirect product groups is studied and applied to the motion of a particle on the circle. In the present case the group is the Euclidean group E$(2)$. We implement the quantisation…
Over 50 years ago, Lov\'{a}sz proved that two graphs are isomorphic if and only if they admit the same number of homomorphisms from any graph [Acta Math. Hungar. 18 (1967), pp. 321--328]. In this work we prove that two graphs are quantum…
Many mathematical models of physical phenomena that have been proposed in recent years require more general spaces than manifolds. When taking into account the symmetry group of the model, we get a reduced model on the (singular) orbit…
The "quantum duality principle" states that a quantisation of a Lie bialgebra provides also a quantisation of the dual formal Poisson group and, conversely, a quantisation of a formal Poisson group yields a quantisation of the dual Lie…
We consider questions related to a quantization scheme in which a classical variable f:\Omega\to R on a phase space \Omega is associated with a semispectral measure E^f, such that the moment operators of E^f are required to be of the form…
We study the orbit structure and the geometric quantization of a pair of mutually commuting hamiltonian actions on a symplectic manifold. If the pair of actions fulfils a symplectic Howe condition, we show that there is a canonical…
We present a systematic quantization scheme for bounded symplectic domains of the form $D \times G \subset T^\ast G$, where $D \subset \mathfrak{g}^\ast$ is a bounded region defined by algebraic inequalities and $G$ is a compact Lie group…
We prove a version of the Chevalley Restriction Theorem for the action of a real reductive group G on a topological space X which locally embeds into a holomorphic representation. Assuming that there exists an appropriate quotient X//G for…
We review the problem of finding a general framework within which one can construct quantum theories of non-standard models for space, or space-time. The starting point is the observation that entities of this type can typically be regarded…
For a partially multiplicative quandle (PMQ) $\mathcal{Q}$ we consider the topological monoid $\mathring{\mathrm{HM}}(\mathcal{Q})$ of Hurwitz spaces of configurations in the plane with local monodromies in $\mathcal{Q}$. We compute the…
We study equivariant localization formulas for phase space path integrals when the phase space is a multiply connected compact Riemann surface. We consider the Hamiltonian systems to which the localization formulas are applicable and show…
Let G be a connected, compact, semisimple Lie group. It is known that for a compact closed orientable surface $\Sigma$ of genus $l >1$, the order of the group $H^2(\Sigma,\pi_1(G))$ is equal to the number of connected components of the…
Associated to any manifold equipped with a closed form of degree >1 is an `L-infinity algebra of observables' which acts as a higher/homotopy analog of the Poisson algebra of functions on a symplectic manifold. In order to study Lie group…
In this paper it is shown that a quantum observable algebra, the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra, is just given as the Hopf algebraic dual to the classical observable algebra over classical phase space and the Plank constant is included in this…
Canonical quantization of gravitational systems is obstructed by the problem of time. Due to diffeomorphism symmetry the Hamiltonian vanishes: dynamics with respect to a background time parameter appears "frozen." Two strategies towards the…
We consider a class of homogeneous manifolds including all semisimple coadjoint orbits. We describe manifolds of that class admitting deformation q uantizations equivariant under the action of $G$ and the corresponding quantum group. We…
Let $G$ be a reductive Lie group, $\g$ its Lie algebra, and $M$ a $G$-manifold. Suppose $\A_h(M)$ is a $\U_h(\g)$-equivariant quantization of the function algebra $\A(M)$ on $M$. We develop a method of building $\U_h(\g)$-equivariant…
Let G_2 be the exceptional Lie group of automorphisms of the complex Cayley algebra and C be a generic, smooth, connected, projective curve over $\mathbb{C}$ of genus at least 2. For a complex Lie group G, let H^0(M(G),L^k) be the space of…
We study the fractionalization of space group symmetries in two-dimensional topologically ordered phases. Specifically, we focus on Z2-fractionalized phases in two dimensions whose deconfined topological excitations transform trivially…
