Deformation Quantization Technics for Lie Theory Problems

Release Date: 2010-09
In this book we'll be using results and technics from deformation quantization of Poisson manifold theory in the sense Kontsevich and Cattaneo-Felder. The goal is to make suitable adaptations in order to use them in the Lie algebra case. This way we confront old problems of Lie theory and non commutative harmonic analysis. The first chapter is a detailed introduction to the part of the theory on (nilpotent) Lie groups and Lie algebras that we need. The second one is also a detailed introduction on deformation (bi)quantization and tools that we'll use in the sequence. Towards the end of chapter 2 we explain how these results will be used to prove theorems in the Lie case and introduce some central objects of study. Chapter 3 contains a detailed proof of a non-canonical isomorphism between a well known algebra of invariant differential operators and the corresponding to these data reduction algebra from deformation quantization. In chapter 4 the question of equivalence between characters from deformation quantization and harmonic analysis on Lie groups is answered positively. Finally in chapter 5 a central worked out example provides an overview of the above put in action.
Geometric and Topological Methods for Quantum Field Theory

Release Date: 2007
This volume, based on lectures and short communications at a summer school in Villa de Leyva, Colombia (July 2005), offers an introduction to some recent developments in several active topics at the interface between geometry, topology and quantum field theory. It is aimed at graduate students in physics or mathematics who might want insight in the following topics (covered in five survey lectures): Anomalies and noncommutative geometry, Deformation quantisation and Poisson algebras, Topological quantum field theory and orbifolds. These lectures are followed by nine articles on various topics at the borderline of mathematics and physics ranging from quasicrystals to invariant instantons through black holes, and involving a number of mathematical tools borrowed from geometry, algebra and analysis.
Deformation Quantization
This book contains eleven refereed research papers on deformation quantization by leading experts in the respective fields. These contributions are based on talks presented on the occasion of the meeting between mathematicians and theoretical physicists held in Strasbourg in May 2001. Topics covered are: star-products over Poisson manifolds, quantization of Hopf algebras, index theorems, globalization and cohomological problems. Both the mathematical and the physical approach ranging from asymptotic quantum electrodynamics to operads and prop theory will be presented. Historical remarks and surveys set the results presented in perspective. Directed at research mathematicians and theoretical physicists as well as graduate students, the volume will give an overview of a field of research that has seen enourmous acticity in the last years, with new ties to many other areas of mathematics and physics.
