Abstract

Based on a closed formula for a star product of Wick type on $\CP^n$, which has been discovered in an earlier article of the authors, we explicitly construct a subalgebra of the formal star-algebra (with coefficients contained in the uniformly dense subspace of representative functions with respect to the canonical action of the unitary group) that consists of {\em converging} power series in the formal parameter, thereby giving an elementary algebraic proof of a convergence result already obtained by Cahen, Gutt, and Rawnsley. In this subalgebra the formal parameter can be substituted by a real number : the resulting associative algebras are infinite-dimensional except for the case , a positive integer, where they turn out to be isomorphic to the finite-dimensional algebra of linear operators in the th energy eigenspace of an isotropic harmonic oscillator with degrees of freedom. Other examples like the -torus and the Poincaré disk are discussed.
