We introduce a dimension group for a self-similar map as the ${\rm K}_0$-group of the core of the $C^*$-algebra associated with the self-similar map together with the canonical endomorphism. The key step for the computation is an explicit…

A celebrated theorem due to R. Frucht states that, roughly speaking, each group is isomorphic to the symmetry group of some graph. By "symmetry group" the group of all graph automorphisms is meant. We provide an analogue of this result for…

The Group Quantization formalism is a scheme for constructing a functional space that is an irreducible infinite dimensional representation of the Lie algebra belonging to a dynamical symmetry group. We apply this formalism to 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…

For decades, mathematical physicists have searched for a coordinate independent quantization procedure to replace the ad hoc process of canonical quantization. This effort has largely coalesced into two distinct research programs: geometric…

On a complex symplectic manifold, we construct the stack of quantization-deformation modules, that is, (twisted) modules of microdifferential operators with an extra central parameter, a substitute to the lack of homogeneity. We also…

Let $M$ be a connected compact quantizable K\"ahler manifold equipped with a Hamiltonian action of a connected compact Lie group $G$. Let $M//G=\phi^{-1}(0)/G=M_0$ be the symplectic quotient at value 0 of the moment map $\phi$. The space…

We construct explicitly the quantization of classical linear maps of $SL(2, R)$ on toroidal phase space, of arbitrary modulus, using the holomorphic (chiral) version of the metaplectic representation. We show that Finite Quantum Mechanics…

For general quantum systems the semiclassical behaviour of eigenfunctions in relation to the ergodic properties of the underlying classical system is quite difficult to understand. The Wignerfunctions of eigenstates converge weakly to…

We initiate the study of the norm-squared of the momentum map as a rigorous tool in infinite dimensions. In particular, we calculate the Hessian at a critical point, show that it is positive semi-definite along the complexified orbit, and…

By decomposing the regular representation of a particular (Heisenberg-like) Lie supergroup into irreducible subspaces, we show that not all of them can be obtained by applying geometric quantization to coadjoint orbits with an even…

We adapt the framework of geometric quantization to the polysymplectic setting. Considering prequantization as the extension of symmetries from an underlying polysymplectic manifold to the space of sections of a Hermitian vector bundle, a…

Let $\mathscr{T}(L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T}))$ be the Toeplitz algebra, that is, the $C^*$-algebra generated by the set $\{T_{\phi} : \phi\in L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T})\}$. Douglas's theorem on symbol map states that there exists a $C^*$-algebra…

We study PI quantum matrix algebras and their automorphisms using the noncommutative discriminant. In the multi-parameter case at $n=2$ and $n=3$, we show that all automorphisms are graded when the center is a polynomial ring. In the…

We review a geometric approach to classification and examination of quantum correlations in composite systems. Since quantum information tasks are usually achieved by manipulating spin and alike systems or, in general, systems with a finite…

I repeat my definition for quantization of a vector bundle. For the case of Toeplitz and geometric quantization of a compact Kaehler Manifold, I give a construction for quantizing any smooth vector bundle which depends functorially on a…

Let $\zeta$ and $\eta$ be distinct points on the unit circle and suppose that $\phi$ is a linear-fractional self-map of the unit disk D, not an automorphism, with $\phi(\zeta)=\eta$. We describe the C*-algebra generated by the associated…

This paper is devoted to semi-classical aspects of symplectic reduction. Consider a compact prequantizable Kahler manifold M with a Hamiltonian torus action. Guillemin and Sternberg introduced an isomorphism between the invariant part of…

Let $V$ be a $G$-module where $G$ is a complex reductive group. Let $Z:=\quot VG$ denote the categorical quotient and let $\pi\colon V\to Z$ be the morphism dual to the inclusion $\O(V)^G\subset\O(V)$. Let $\phi\colon Z\to Z$ be an…

A hidden gauge theory structure of quantum mechanics which is invisible in its conventional formulation is uncovered. Quantum mechanics is shown to be equivalent to a certain Yang-Mills theory with an infinite-dimensional gauge group and a…
