00 5 Projectively Invariant Star Products
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that a (curved) projective structure on a smooth manifold determines on the Poisson algebra of smooth, fiberwise-polynomial functions on the cotangent bundle a one-parameter family of graded star products. For a particular value of the parameter (corresponding to half-densities) the star product is symmetric, and specializes in the projectively flat case to the one constructed previously by C. Duval, P. Lecomte and V. Ovsienko. A limiting form of this family of star products yields a commutative deformation of the symmetric tensor algebra of the manifold. A basic ingredient of the proofs is the construction of projectively invariant multilinear differential operators on bundles of weighted symmetric k-vectors. The construction works except for a discrete set of excluded weights and generalizes the Rankin-Cohen brackets of modular forms.

It is shown that a (curved) projective structure on a smooth manifold determines on the Poisson algebra of smooth functions on the cotangent bundle, fiberwise-polynomial of bounded degree, a one-parameter family of graded star products. For a particular value of the parameter (corresponding to half-densities) the star product is symmetric, and specializes in the projectively flat case to the on...

An infinite-dimensional N-graded k-algebra A is called projectively simple if dimk A/I < ∞ for every nonzero two-sided ideal I ⊂ A. We show that if a projectively simple ring A is strongly noetherian, is generated in degree 1, and has a point module, then A is equal in large degree to a twisted homogeneous coordinate ring B = B(X,L, σ). Here X is a smooth projective variety, σ is an automorphis...
متن کامل0 O ct 1 99 9 Methods of Equivariant Quantization
This article is a survey of recent work [15, 6, 7, 13] developing a new approach to quantization based on the equivariance with respect to some Lie group of symmetries. Examples are provided by conformal and projective differential geometry: given a smooth manifold M endowed with a flat conformal/projective structure, we establish a canonical isomorphism between the space of symmetric contravar...
متن کاملEfficient model library access by projectively invariant indexing functions
Projectively invariant shape descriptors allow fast indexing into model libraries without the need for pose computation or camera calibration. This paper describes progress in building a model based vision system for plane objects that uses algebraic projective invari-ants. We give a brief account of these descriptors and then describe the recognition system, giving examples of the invariant te...
متن کاملProjectively Bounded Fréchet Measures
A scalar valued set function on a Cartesian product of σ-algebras is a Fréchet measure if it is a scalar measure independently in each coordinate. A basic question is considered: is it possible to construct products of Fréchet measures that are analogous to product measures in the classical theory? A Fréchet measure is said to be projectively bounded if it satisfies a Grothendieck type inequali...
