Covariant geometric quantization of nonrelativistic time-dependent mechanics

GIOVANNI GIACHETTA, Luigi Mangiarotti, Gennadi Aleksandrovich Sardanashvily

We provide geometric quantization of the vertical cotangent bundle V*Q→Q→R, equipped with the canonical Poisson structure and treated as a momentum phase space of nonrelativistic time-dependent mechanics. We show that this quantization is equivalent to fiberwise quantization of symplectic fibers of V*Q→R and that the quantum algebra of time-dependent mechanics is an instantwise algebra. Quantization of the classical evolution equation defines a connection on this instantwise algebra and describes quantum evolution in time-dependent mechanics as a parallel transport.

Covariant geometric quantization of non-relativistic Hamiltonian mechanics

GIOVANNI GIACHETTA, Mangiarotti, L., Sardanashvily, G.

We provide geometric quantization of the vertical cotangent bundle V^*Q equipped with the canonical Poisson structure. This is a momentum phase space of non-relativistic mechanics with the configuration bundle Q -> R. The goal is the Schrodinger representation of V^*Q. We show that this quantization is equivalent to the fibrewise quantization of symplectic fibres of V^*Q -> R, that makes the quantum algebra of non-relativistic mechanics an instantwise algebra. Quantization of the classical evolution equation defines a connection on this instantwise algebra, which provides quantum evolution in non-relativistic mechanics as a parallel transport along time.

THE GEOMETRIC PHASE AND THE SCHWINGER TERM IN SOME MODELS

Harald Grosse, Edwin Langmann A

We discuss the quantization of fermions interacting with external fields and observe the occurrence of equivalent as well as inequivalent representations of the canonical anticommutation relations. Implementability of gauge and axial gauge transformations leads to generators which fulfil an algebra of current with a Schwinger term. This term can be written as a cocycle and leads to the boson-fermion correspondence. Transport of a quantum-mechanical system along a closed loop of parameter space may yield a geometric phase. We discuss models for which nonintegrable phase factors are obtained from the adiabatic parallel transport. After second quantization, one obtains, in addition, a Schwinger term. Depending on the type of transformation, a subtle relationship between these two obstructions can occur. We indicate finally how we may transport density matrices along closed loops in parameter space.
