Abstract: | The symplectic vector spaceE of theq andp's of classical mechanics allows a basis free definition of the Poisson bracket in the symmetric algebra overE. Thus the symmetric algebra overE becomes a Lie algebra, which can be compared with the quantum mechanical Weyl algebra with its commutator Lie structure.
The universality of the Weyl algebra is used to study the well-known ‘classical’ Moyal realisation of the Weyl algebra in
the symmetric algebra. Quantisations are defined as linear mappings of the underlying vector spaces of the two algebras. It
is shown that the classical Lie algebra is −2 graded, whereas the quantum Lie algebra is not. This proves that they are not
isomorphic, and hence there is no Dirac quantisation. |
