We first generalise the standard Wigner function to Dirac fermions in curved spacetimes. Secondly, we turn to the Moyal quantisation of systems with constraints. Gravity is used as an example.
We implement the so-called Weyl-Heisenberg covariant integral quantization in the case of a classical system constrained by a bounded or semi-bounded geometry. The procedure, which is free of the ordering problem of operators, is…
The first purpose of this article is to provide conditions for a bounded operator in $L^2(\R^n)$ to be the Weyl (resp. anti-Wick) quantization of a bounded continuous symbol on $\R^{2n}$. Then, explicit formulas for the Weyl (resp.…
The Weyl-Wigner-Moyal formalism of fermionic classical systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom is considered. This correspondence is studied by computing the relevant Stratonovich-Weyl quantizer. The Moyal $\star$-product, Wigner…
We study the deformation quantisation (Moyal quantisation) of general constrained Hamiltonian systems. It is shown how second class constraints can be turned into first class quantum constraints. This is illustrated by the O(N) non-linear…
The necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the second-class constraint surface to be (an almost) K\"ahler manifold. The deformation quantisation for such systems is scetched resulting in the Wick-type symbols for the…
The Weyl quantization of classical observables on the torus (as phase space) without regularity assumptions is explicitly computed. The equivalence class of symbols yielding the same Weyl operator is characterized. The Heisenberg equation…
We show how the Moyal product of phase-space functions, and the Weyl correspondence between symbols and operator kernels, may be obtained directly using the procedures of geometric quantization, applied to the symplectic groupoid…
In this paper we explore the idea of looking at the Dirac quantisation conditions as $\hbar$-dependent constraints on the tangent bundle to phase-space. Starting from the path-integral version of classical mechanics and using the natural…
The Weyl-Wigner-Moyal formalism is developed for spin by means of a correspondence between spherical harmonics and spherical harmonic tensor operators. The analogue of the Moyal expansion is developed for the Weyl symbol of the product of…

We study a class of quadratic time-frequency representations that, roughly speaking, are obtained by linear perturbations of the Wigner transform. They satisfy Moyal's formula by default and share many other properties with the Wigner…
The Moyal--Weyl description of quantum mechanics provides a comprehensive phase space representation of dynamics. The Weyl symbol image of the Heisenberg picture evolution operator is regular in $\hbar$. Its semiclassical expansion…
