That Strange Procedure Called Quantisation
نویسنده
چکیده
This is a pedagogical and (almost) self-contained introduction into the Theorem of Groenewold and van Howe, which states that a naive transcription of Dirac’s quantisation rules cannot work. Some related issues in quantisation theory are also discussed. First-class constrained systems a briefly described in a slightly more ‘global’ fashion.1

Rings of Singularities
This paper is a slightly revised version of an introduction into singularity theory corresponding to a series of lectures given at the ``Advanced School and Conference on homological and geometrical methods in representation theory'' at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Miramare - Trieste, Italy, 11-29 January 2010. We show how to associate to a triple of posit...
متن کاملA geometric procedure for the reduced-state-space quantisation of constrained systems
We propose in this paper a new method for the quantisation of systems with first-class constraints. This method is a combination of the coherent-state-path-integral quantisation developed by Klauder, with the ideas of reduced state space quantisation. The key idea is that the physical Hilbert space may be defined by a coherent-state path-integral on the reduced state space and that the metric o...
متن کاملQuantisation, Representation and Reduction; How Should We Interpret the Quantum Hamiltonian Constraints of Canonical Gravity?
Hamiltonian constraints feature in the canonical formulation of general relativity. Unlike typical constraints they cannot be associated with a reduction procedure leading to a non-trivial reduced phase space and this means the physical interpretation of their quantum analogues is ambiguous. In particular, can we assume that “quantisation commutes with reduction” and treat the promotion of thes...
متن کاملQuantum RAM Based Neural Netoworks
A mathematical quantisation of a Random Access Memory (RAM) is proposed starting from its matrix representation. This quantum RAM (q-RAM) is employed as the neural unit of q-RAM-based Neural Networks, q-RbNN, which can be seen as the quantisation of the corresponding RAM-based ones. The models proposed here are direct realisable in quantum circuits, have a natural adaptation of the classical le...
متن کاملOn nonlinear parametric quantisation of gravity and cosmological models
A generalisation of the recently formulated nonlinear quantisation of a parameterised theory is presented in the context of quantum gravity. The parametric quantisation of a Friedmann universe with a massless scalar field is then considered in terms of the analytic solutions of the resulting evolution equations. PACS numbers: 04.20.Fy, 04.60.Ds, 04.60.Kz, 11.10.Lm In a recent paper [1] the quan...
