Starting from a functional formulation of classical mechanics, we show how toperform its quantization by freezing to zero two Grassmannian partners of time.

TIME AND GEOMETRIC QUANTIZATION

Alexei A. Abrikosov, E. Gozzi, D. Mauro

In this paper we briefly review the functional version of the Koopman-von Neumann operatorial approach to classical mechanics. We then show that its quantization can be achieved by freezing to zero two Grassmannian partners of time. This method of quantization presents many similarities with the one known as Geometric Quantization.

Quantization as a dimensional reduction phenomenon

E. Gozzi, MAURO D.

Classical mechanics, in the operatorial formulation of Koopman and von Neumann, can be written also in a functional form. This form two grassmannian partners of time make their natural appearance extending in this manner time to a three dimensional supermanifold. Quantization is then achieved by a process of dimensional reduction of this supermanifold, We prove that this procedure is equivalent to the well.known method of geometric quantization.
