Enhanced quantization on the circle
Joseph Ben Geloun, John R. Klauder
Abstract
We apply the quantization scheme introduced in Klauder 2012 (arXiv:1204.2870) to a particle on a circle. We find that the quantum action functional restricted to appropriate coherent states can be expressed as the classical action plus ℏ-corrections. We succeed in proving this for a Hamiltonian endowed with a general periodic potential. This result extends the examples presented in the cited paper for a system on a nontrivial configuration space topology.
