Deformation quantization using groupoids. Case of toric manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
In the framework of C-algebraic deformation quantization we propose a notion of deformation groupoid which could apply to known examples e.g. Connes’ tangent groupoid of a manifold, its generalisation by Landsman and Ramazan, Rieffel’s noncommutative torus, and even Landi’s noncommutative 4-sphere. We construct such groupoid for a wide class of T-spaces, that generalizes the one given for C by Bellissard and Vittot. In particular, using the geometric properties of the moment map discovered in the ’80s by Atiyah, Delzant, Guillemin and Sternberg, it provides a C-algebraic deformation quantization for all toric manifolds, including the 2-sphere and all complex projective spaces.

No : 15 Title : ‘ Quantization of Planck ’ S Constant
This paper is about the role of Planck’s constant, h̄, in the geometric quantization of Poisson manifolds using symplectic groupoids. In order to construct a strict deformation quantization of a given Poisson manifold, one can use all possible rescalings of the Poisson structure, which can be combined into a single “Heisenberg-Poisson” manifold. The new coordinate on this manifold is identified ...
متن کاملFunctorial Quantization and the Guillemin–sternberg Conjecture *
We propose that geometric quantization of symplectic manifolds is the arrow part of a functor, whose object part is deformation quantization of Poisson manifolds. The 'quantiza-tion commutes with reduction' conjecture of Guillemin and Sternberg then becomes a special case of the functoriality of quantization. In fact, our formulation yields almost unlimited generalizations of the Guillemin–Ster...
متن کاملDeformation Quantization and the Baum–Connes Conjecture
Alternative titles of this paper would have been “Index theory without index” or “The Baum–Connes conjecture without Baum.” In 1989, Rieffel introduced an analytic version of deformation quantization based on the use of continuous fields ofC∗-algebras. We review how a wide variety of examples of such quantizations can be understood on the basis of a single lemma involving amenable groupoids. Th...
متن کاملDeformation Quantization of Pseudo Symplectic(Poisson) Groupoids
We introduce a new kind of groupoid—a pseudo étale groupoid, which provides many interesting examples of noncommutative Poisson algebras as defined by Block, Getzler, and Xu. Following the idea that symplectic and Poisson geometries are the semiclassical limits of the corresponding quantum geometries, we quantize these noncommutative Poisson manifolds in the framework of deformation quantizatio...
متن کاملLocally toric manifolds and singular Bohr-Sommerfeld leaves
When geometric quantization is applied to a manifold using a real polarization which is “nice enough”, a result of Śniatycki says that the quantization can be found by counting certain objects, called BohrSommerfeld leaves. Subsequently, several authors have taken this as motivation for counting Bohr-Sommerfeld leaves when studying the quantization of manifolds which are less “nice”. In this pa...
