The Weyl-Wigner-Moyal formalism for Dirac second class constrained systems has been proposed recently as the deformation quantization of Dirac bracket. In this paper, after a brief review of this formalism, it is applied to the case of the…

Dirac's quantization of the Maxwell theory on non-commutative spaces has been considered. First class constraints were found which are the same as in classical electrodynamics. The gauge covariant quantization of the non-linear equations of…

In this paper we consider the problem of deformation quantization of the algebra of polynomial functions on coadjoint orbits of semisimple lie groups. The deformation of an orbit is realized by taking the quotient of the universal…

The quantum deformation of the Poisson bracket is the Moyal bracket. We construct quantum deformation of the Dirac bracket for systems which admit global symplectic basis for constraint functions. Equivalently, it can be considered as an…

Deformation Theory is a natural generalization of Lie Theory, from Lie groups and their linearization, Lie algebras, to differential graded Lie algebras and their higher order deformations, quantum groups. The article focuses on two basic…

We study a decoupling limit of M-theory where the three-form gauge potential becomes critical. This limit leads to nonrelativistic M-theory coupled to a non-Lorentzian spacetime geometry. Nonrelativistic M-theory is U-dual to M-theory in…

The `brane quantisation' is a quantisation procedure developed by Gukov and Witten \cite{Gukov:2008ve}. We implement this idea by combining it with the tilting theory and the minimal resolutions. This way, we can realistically compute the…

We show that in certain superstring compactifications, gauge theories on noncommutative tori will naturally appear as D-brane world-volume theories. This gives strong evidence that they are well-defined quantum theories. It also gives a…

Canonical quantization of the Wess-Zumino (WZ) model including chiral interaction with gauge field is considered for the case of a degenerate action. The two-dimensional SU(2) Yang-Mills model and the four-dimensional SU(3) chiral gauge…

We review some aspects of Nambu mechanics on the basis of the works previously published separately by the present author. Main focuses are on three themes, its various symmetry structures, their possible relevance to string/M theory, and a…

We consider the following construction of quantization. For a Riemannian manifold $M$ the space of forms on $T^*M$ is made into a space of (full) symbols of operators acting on forms on $M$. This gives rise to the composition of symbols,…

We study the quantization of the M-theory G-flux on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau fourfolds with singularities giving rise to unitary and symplectic gauge groups. We seek and find its relation to the Freed-Witten quantization of…

We consider compactifications of the N=1, d=6, E_8 theory on tori to five, four, and three dimensions and learn about some properties of this theory. As a by-product we derive the SL(2,\IZ) duality of the N=2, d=4, SU(2) theory with N_f=4.…
