The Multidimensional Berry-Hannay Model
arXiv:math-ph/0403036
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to construct the Berry-Hannay model of quantum mechanics on a 2n-dimensional symplectic torus. We construct a simultaneous quantization of the algebra of functions on the torus and the linear symplectic group $\G = \Sp(\mathrm{2n},\Z)$. In the construction we use the quantum torus $\A$, which is a deformation of , together with a $\G$-action on it. We obtain the quantization via the action of $\G$ on the set of equivalence classes of irreducible representations of $\A$. For $\h \in \Q$ this action has a unique fixed point. This gives a canonical projective equivariant quantization. There exists a Hilbert space on which both $\G$ and $\A$ act in a compatible way.
