Geometric Quantization of Algebraic Reduction
An analogue of geometric quantization of Poisson algebras obtained by
algebraic reduction of symmetries is developed. Interpretation of the obtained
results and their application to the problem of commutativity of quantization
and reduction are givenComment: 22 page
Shifting operators in geometric quantization
In a series of papers on Bohr-Sommerfeld-Heisenberg quantization of
completely integrable systems we interpreted shifting operators as quantization
of functions , where
are action angle coordinates. The aim of this paper is to show how these
operators occur in geometric quantization.Comment: This is a revised version. It focuses exclusively on shifting
operators in Bohr-Sommerfeld theory of quantization of completely integrable
Hamiltonian system
Orbits of families of vector fields on subcartesian spaces
Orbits of families of vector fields on a subcartesian space are shown to be
smooth manifolds. This allows for a global description of a smooth geometric
structure on a family of manifolds in terms of a single object defined on the
corresponding family of vector fields. Stratified spaces, Poisson spaces and
almost complex spaces are discussed.Comment: 34 page
Singular reduction for nonlinear control systems
We discuss smooth nonlinear control systems with symmetry. For a free and
proper action of the symmetry group, the reduction of symmetry gives rise to a
reduced smooth nonlinear control system. If the action of the symmetry group is
only proper, the reduced nonlinear control system need not be smooth. Using the
smooth calculus on nonsmooth spaces, provided by the theory of differential
spaces of Sikorski, we prove a generalization of Sussmann's theorem on orbits
of families of smooth vector fields.Comment: 13 page
Bohr-Sommerfeld-Heisenberg Theory in Geometric Quantization
In the framework of geometric quantization we extend the Bohr-Sommerfeld
rules to a full quantization theory which resembles Heisenberg's matrix theory.
This extension is possible because Bohr-Sommerfeld rules not only provide an
orthogonal basis in the space of quantum states, but also give a lattice
structure to this basis. This permits the definition of appropriate shifting
operators. As examples, we discuss the 1-dimensional harmonic oscillator and
the coadjoint orbits of the rotation group
Classical and quantum spherical pendulum
This paper extends the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization of the spherical pendulum
to a full quantum theory. This the first application of geometric quantization
to a classical system with monodromy
On Bohr-Sommerfeld-Heisenberg Quantization
This paper presents the theory of Bohr-Sommerfeld-Heisenberg quantization of
a completely integrable Hamiltonian system in the context of geometric
quantization. The theory is illustrated with several examples
