In this paper we apply the Symplectic Projectors Method to gauge theories with second class constraints in various space-time dimensions. The conclusion is that this method is equivalent to the standard quantization methods. Although it…
The Teichm\"uller space of punctured surfaces with the Weil-Petersson symplectic structure and the action of the mapping class group is realized as the Hamiltonian reduction of a finite dimensional symplectic space where the mapping class…
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…
Geometric Quantization is a term used to describe a wide collection of techniques dating back to the 1960s in the work of Kirillov, Kostant, and Souriau, which take symplectic manifolds and produce complex vector spaces. The name comes from…
Projective quantum measurement is a theoretically accepted process in modern quantum mechanics. However, its projection hypothesis is widely regarded as an experimentally established empirical law. In this paper, we combine a previous…
Classical mechanics has a natural mathematical setting in symplectic geometry and it may be asked if the same is true for quantum mechanics. More precisely, is it possible to capture certain quantum idiosyncrasies within the symplectic…
The complex projective spaces, considered as prequantized symplectic manifolds, are roughly to the complete symmetric functions as those projective spaces, regarded as complex-oriented manifolds, are to Newton's power sums.
This article presents a squeezing transformation for quantum systems associated to finite vector spaces. The physical idea of squeezing here is taken from the action of the usual squeezing operator over wave functions defined on a real…
Geometric quantization procedures go usually through an extension of the original theory (pre-quantization) and a subsequent reduction (selection of the physical states). In this context we describe a full geometrical mechanism which…
New measures for the quantization of systems with constraints are discussed and applied to several examples, in particular, examples of alternative but equivalent formulations of given first-class constraints, as well as a comparison of…
We define formal geometric quantisation for proper Hamiltonian actions by possibly noncompact groups on possibly noncompact, prequantised symplectic manifolds, generalising work of Weitsman and Paradan. We study the functorial properties of…
Quantum theory (QT) provides statistical predictions for various physical phenomena. The outcomes of these measurements are in general some numerical time series registered by some macroscopic instruments. The various empirical probability…
Standard quantum mechanics is viewed as a limit of a cut system with artificially restricted dimension of a Hilbert space. Exact spectrum of cut momentum and coordinate operators is derived and the limiting transition to the infinite…
A semi-projective representation is a homomorphism of a finite group into the group of semi-projective transformations of a finite dimensional vector space over a field. Schur's concept of a representation group for projective…
Circuit quantization is an extraordinarily successful theory that describes the behavior of quantum circuits with high precision. The most widely used approach of circuit quantization relies on introducing a classical Lagrangian whose…
There exist efficient algorithms to project a point onto the intersection of a convex cone and an affine subspace. Those conic projections are in turn the work-horse of a range of algorithms in conic optimization, having a variety of…
A fully geometric procedure of quantization that utilizes a natural and necessary metric on phase space is reviewed and briefly related to the goals of the program of geometric quantization.
Quantization for probability distributions refers broadly to estimating a given probability measure by a discrete probability measure supported by a finite number of points. We consider general geometric approaches to quantization using…
We propose here a new symplectic quantization scheme, where quantum fluctuations of a scalar field theory stem from two main assumptions: relativistic invariance and equiprobability of the field configurations with identical value of the…
The basic arguments underlying the symplectic projector method are presented. By this method, local free coordinates on the constrait surface can be obtained for a broader class of constrained systems. Some interesting examples are…
