Pseudo-differential operators, Wigner transform and Weyl systems on type I locally compact groups

Abstract

Let $G$ be a unimodular type I second countable locally compact group and $\hat{G}$ its unitary dual. We introduce and study a global pseudo-differential calculus for operator-valued symbols defined on $G\times \hat{G}$, and its relations to suitably defined Wigner transforms and Weyl systems. We also unveil its connections with crossed products $C^{\ast }$-algebras associated to certain $C^{\ast }$-dynamical systems, and apply it to the spectral analysis of covariant families of operators. Applications are given to nilpotent Lie groups, in which case we relate quantizations with operator-valued and scalar-valued symbols.
