Abstract
The three main objects that serve as the foundation of quantum mechanics on phase space are the Weyl transform, the Wigner distribution function, and the $\star$-product of phase space functions. In this article, the $\star$-product of functions on the Euclidean motion group of rank three, $\mathrm{E}(3)$, is constructed. $C^*$-algebra properties of $\star_s$ on $\mathrm{E}(3)$ are presented, establishing a phase space symbol calculus for functions whose parameters are translations and rotations. The key ingredients in the construction are the unitary irreducible representations of the group.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Geometry and Symmetry in Physics is a fully-refereed, independent international journal. It aims to facilitate the rapid dissemination, at low cost, of original research articles reporting interesting and potentially important ideas, and invited review articles providing background, perspectives, and useful sources of reference material. In addition to such contributions, the journal welcomes extended versions of talks in the area of geometry of classical and quantum systems delivered at the annual conferences on Geometry, Integrability and Quantization in Bulgaria. An overall idea is to provide a forum for an exchange of information, ideas and inspiration and further development of the international collaboration. The potential authors are kindly invited to submit their papers for consideraion in this Journal either to one of the Associate Editors listed below or to someone of the Editors of the Proceedings series whose expertise covers the research topic, and with whom the author can communicate effectively, or directly to the JGSP Editorial Office at the address given below. More details regarding submission of papers can be found by clicking on "Notes for Authors" button above. The publication program foresees four quarterly issues per year of approximately 128 pages each.
