Phase Space Geometry in Classical and Quantum Mechanics
John R. Klauder
Phase space is the state space of classical mechanics, and this manifold is normally endowed only with a symplectic form. The geometry of quantum mechanics is necessarily more comp…
Metric and Curvature in Gravitational Phase Space
Glenn Watson, John R. Klauder
At a fixed point in spacetime (say, x_0), gravitational phase space consists of the space of symmetric matrices F^{ab} [corresponding to the canonical momentum pi^{ab}(x_0) and of…
The Affine Quantum Gravity Program
John R. Klauder
The central principle of affine quantum gravity is securing and maintaining the strict positivity of the matrix $\{\hg_{ab}(x)\}$ composed of the spatial components of the local me…
The Current State of Coherent States
John R. Klauder
The original canonical coherent states could be defined in several ways. As applications for other sets of coherent states arose, the rules of definition were correspondingly chang…
Noncanonical quantization of gravity. II. Constraints and the physical Hilbert space
John R. Klauder
The program of quantizing the gravitational field with the help of affine field variables is continued. For completeness, a review of the selection criteria that singles out the af…
