Given a Lie group $G$ of quantized canonical transformations acting on the space $L^2(M)$ over a closed manifold $M$, we define an algebra of so-called $G$-operators on $L^2(M)$. We show that to $G$-operators we can associate symbols in…
The method of geometric quantization is applied to a particle moving on an arbitrary Riemannian manifold $Q$ in an external gauge field, that is a connection on a principal $H$-bundle $N$ over $Q$. The phase space of the particle is a…
We use operator algebras and operator theory to obtain new result concerning Berezin quantization of compact K\"ahler manifolds. Our main tool is the notion of subproduct systems of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, which enables all…
In hep-th/0411028 a new manifestly covariant canonical quantization method was developed. The idea is to quantize in the phase space of arbitrary histories first, and impose dynamics as first-class constraints afterwards. The Hamiltonian is…
We introduce geometric quantization for constant rank presymplectic structures with Riemannian null foliation and compact leaf closure space. We prove a quantization-commutes-with-reduction theorem in this context. Examples related to…
Quantum mechanical operators and quantum fields are interpreted as realizations of timespace manifolds. Such causal manifolds are parametrized by the classes of the positive unitary operations in all complex operations, i.e. by the…
We prove upper pointwise estimates for the Bergman kernel of the weighted Fock space of entire functions in $L^2(e^{-2\phi})$ where $\phi$ is a subharmonic function with $\Delta \phi$ a doubling measure. We derive estimates for the…
A formalism previously introduced by the author using tesselated Cauchy surfaces is applied to define a quantized version of gravitating point particles in 2+1 dimensions. We observe that this is the first model whose quantum version…
Certain quantization problems are equivalent to the construction of morphisms from "quantum" to "classical" props. Once such a morphism is constructed, Hensel's lemma shows that it is in fact an isomorphism. This gives a new, simple proof…
Over the last 25 years, the notion of "fuzzy spaces" has become ubiquitous in the high-energy physics literature. These are finite dimensional noncommutative approximations of the algebra of functions on a classical space. The most well…
We study the canonical quantization of the theory given by Chamseddine-Connes spectral action on a particular finite spectral triple with algebra $M_2(\Cset)\oplus\Cset$. We define a quantization of the natural distance associated with this…
We introduce the notion of an isotropic quantum state associated with a Bohr-Sommerfeld manifold in the context of Berezin-Toeplitz quantization of general prequantized symplectic manifolds, and we study its semi-classical properties using…
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,…
These notes give an introduction to the quantization procedure called geometric quantization. It gives a definition of the mathematical background for its understanding and introductions to classical and quantum mechanics, to differentiable…
We first introduce an invariant index for G-equivariant elliptic differential operators on a locally compact manifold M admitting a proper cocompact action of a locally compact group G. It generalizes the Kawasaki index for orbifolds to the…
Particle localization within quantum field theory is revisited. Canonical quantization of a free scalar field theory is performed in a manifestly Lorentz covariant way with respect to an arbitrary 3-surface $\Sigma$, which is the…
A modification of the canonical quantization procedure for systems with time-dependent second-class constraints is discussed and applied to the quantization of the relativistic particle in a plane wave. The time dependence of constraints…
We construct a counter example showing, for the quadratic quantization, the identity $(\Gamma(T))^*= \Gamma(T^*)$ is not necessarily true. We characterize all operators on the one-particle algebra whose quadratic quantization are…
We study the canonical quantization of a scalar field in a Kantowski-Sachs spacetime. For simplicity, we consider compactified spatial sections, since this does not affect the ultraviolet behavior. A time-dependent canonical transformation…
A (holomorphic) quantization of a complex contact manifold is a filtered algebroid stack which is locally equivalent to the ring E of microdifferential operators and which has trivial graded. The existence of a canonical quantization has…
