We discuss the classical mechanics on the Grassmannian and the Disc modeled on the ideal L^(2,\infty)(H). We apply methods of geometric quantization to these systems. Their relation to a flat symplectic space is also discussed.
The physical meaning of the operators is not reducible to the intrinsic relations of the quantum system, since unitary transformations can find other operators satisfying the exact same relations. The physical meaning is determined…
The quantization rules recently proposed by M. Navarro (and independently I.V. Kanatchikov) for a finite-dimensional formulation of quantum field theory are applied to the Klein-Gordon and the Dirac fields to obtain the quantum equations of…

Canonical quantization has served wonderfully for the quantization of a vast number of classical systems. That includes single classical variables, such as $p$ and $q$, and numerous classical Hamiltonians $H(p,q)$, as well as field…
In this work simple and effective quantization procedure of classical dynamical systems is proposed and illustrated by a number of examples. The procedure is based entirely on differential equations which describe time evolution of systems.
The von Neumann trace form of quantum statistical mechanics is transformed to an integral over classical phase space. Formally exact expressions for the resultant position-momentum commutation function are given. A loop expansion for wave…
We demonstrate that, in certain cases, quantization and the classical limit provide functors that are "almost inverse" to each other. These functors map between categories of algebraic structures for classical and quantum physics,…
We write down a quantum gravity equation which generalizes the Wheeler-DeWitt one in view of including a time dependence in the wave functional. The obtained equation provides a consistent canonical quantization of the 3-geometries…
The classical Eisenhart lift is a method by which the dynamics of a classical system subject to a potential can be recreated by means of a free system evolving in a higher-dimensional curved manifold, known as the lifted manifold. We extend…

Extended Schwinger's quantization procedure is used for constructing quantum mechanics on a manifold with a group structure. The considered manifold $M$ is a homogeneous Riemannian space with the given action of isometry transformation…
We review and systematize recent attempts to canonically quantize general relativity in 2+1 dimensions, defined on space-times $\R\times\Sigma^g$, where $\Sigma^g$ is a compact Riemann surface of genus $g$. The emphasis is on quantizations…

We consider the quantum version of Arnold's generalisation of a rigid body in classical mechanics. Thus, we quantise the motion on an arbitrary Lie group manifold of a particle whose classical trajectories correspond to the geodesics of any…
