Projectively Equivariant Quantization Map

Let M be a manifold endowed with a symmetric affine connection . The aim of this Letter is to describe a quantization map between the space of second-order polynomials on the cotangent bundle T* M and the space of second-order linear differential operators, both viewed as modules over the group of diffeomorphisms and the Lie algebra of vector fields on M. This map is an isomorphism, for almost all values of certain constants, and it depends only on the projective class of the affine connection .     

Quantization of Equivariant Vector Bundles

The quantization of vector bundles is defined. Examples are constructed for the well controlled case of equivariant vector bundles over compact coadjoint orbits. (A coadjoint orbit is a symplectic manifold with a transitive, semisimple symmetry group.) In preparation for the main result, the quantization of coadjoint orbits is discussed in detail. This subject should not be confused with the quantization of the total space of a vector bundle such as the cotangent bundle. Received: 27 February 1998 / Accepted: 5 November 1998     

Equivariant Comparison of Quantum Homogeneous Spaces

We consider the quantum homogeneous spaces of the q-deformation of simply connected simple compact Lie groups and their Poisson–Lie quantum subgroups. We prove the deformation invariance in the equivariant KK-theory with respect to the translation action by maximal tori. This extends a result of Neshveyev and Tuset to the equivariant setting. As applications, we prove the ring isomorphism of the K-homology of G _q with respect to the coproduct of C(G _q ), and an analogue of the Borsuk–Ulam theorem for quantum spheres.     

Equivariant Differential Characters and Symplectic Reduction

Projectively Equivariant Quantization for Differential Operators Acting on Forms

In this Letter, we show the existence of a natural and projectively equivariant quantization map depending on a linear torsion-free connection for the spaces of differential operators mapping p-forms into functions on an arbitrary smooth manifold M. We show how this result implies the existence over of an sl _m+1-equivariant quantization for the spaces .This revised version was published online in March 2005 with corrections to the cover date.     

Explicit Formula for the Natural and Projectively Equivariant Quantization

In [Prog Theor Phys Suppl 49(3):173–196, 1999], Lecome conjectured the existence of a natural and projectively equivariant quantization. In [math.DG/0208171, Submitted], Bordemann proved this existence using the framework of Thomas–Whitehead connections. In [Lett Math Phys 72(3):183–196, 2005], we gave a new proof of the same theorem thanks to the Cartan connections. After these works, there was no explicit formula for the quantization. In this paper, we give this formula using the formula in terms of Cartan connections given in [Lett Math Phys 72(3):183–196, 2005]. This explicit formula constitutes the generalization to any order of the formulae at second and third orders soon published by Bouarroudj in [Lett Math Phys 51(4):265–274, 2000] and [C R Acad Sci Paris Sér I Math 333(4):343–346, 2001].     

Projectively Equivariant Quantization and Symbol Calculus: Noncommutative Hypergeometric Functions

We extend projectively equivariant quantization and symbol calculus to symbols of pseudo-differential operators. An explicit expression in terms of hypergeometric functions with noncommutative arguments is given. Some examples are worked out, one of them yielding a quantum length element on S ³.     

Quantization of Boson Fields in Quantum Geometry

It is shown that the introduction of an upper limit on the acceleration of particles provides a natural cutoff on momenta, avoiding the problem of ultraviolet divergencies in local quantum field theory. Such a cutoff turns out to be related to Planck energy.     

Quantum Integrable Toda-Like Systems in Deformation Quantization

We define and discuss the notion of quantum integrability of a classically integrable system within the framework of deformation quantization, i.e. the question whether the classical conserved quantities (which are already in involution with respect to the Poisson bracket) commute with respect to some star product on the phase space after possible quantum corrections. As an example of this method, we show by means of suitable 2 by 2 quantum R-matrices that a list of Toda-like classical integrable systems given by Y. B. Suris is quantum integrable with respect to the usual star product of the Weyl type in flat 2n-dimensional space.     

Explicit Equivariant Quantization on Coadjoint Orbits of GL(n,C)

We present an explicit U _h (gl(n, C))-equivariant quantization on coadjoint orbits of GL(n, C). It forms a two-parameter family quantizing the Poisson pair of the reflection equation and Kirillov–Kostant–Souriau brackets.     

Characters of Cycles, Equivariant Characteristic Classes and Fredholm Modules

We study the statistics of the viscous Burgers turbulence (BT) model initialized at time t=0 by a large class of Gaussian data. Using a first-principles analysis of the Hopf–Cole formula for the Burgers equation and the theory of large deviations for Gaussian processes, we characterize the tails of the probability distribution functions (PDFs) for the velocity u(x,t) and the velocity derivatives . The PDF tails have a non-universal structure of the form , where Re is the Reynolds number and p, q, and r depend on the order of differentiation and the infrared behavior of the initial energy spectrum.

Quantization in Quantum System with Time-Dependent Boundary Condition

An approach to quantize a quantum mechanical system with time-dependent boundary condition is proposed in the framework of canonical quantization. It can be achieved by introducing the time-dependent boundary condition into the usual Lagrangian. We set up the effective Hamiltonian formalism and believe that this formalism can provide a generalized method to calculate the boundary effects.     

Rarita-Schwinger Quantum Free Field via Deformation Quantization

Rarita-Schwinger (RS) quantum free field is reexamined in the context of deformation quantization (DQ). It is interesting to consider this alternative for the specific case of the spin 3/2 field because DQ avoids the problem of dealing from the beginning with the extra degrees of freedom which appears in the conventional canonical quantization. It is found out that the subsidiary condition does not introduce any change either in the Wigner function or in other aspects of the Weyl-Wigner-Groenewold-Moyal formalism, such as: the Stratonovich-Weyl quantizer and normal ordering, in relation to de Dirac field case. The RS propagator is also calculated within this framework.

The Quantum R-Matrix via Canonical Quantization in the Liouville Theory

Starting from the classical Liouville theory, we study its quantum theory through canonical quantization. We find that if the Poisson bracket relations between two vectors are,dominated by the classical r-matrix in the classical case, their quantum analogue is replaced by the exchange relations dominated by the quantum R-matrix. The quantum group structure in the quantum LiouviUe theory is studied and the central charge of the quantum Liouville theory is also obtained.
