Reviews
From the reviews: "De Gosson's book is an exhaustive and clear description of almost all the more recent results obtained in connected areas of research like symplectiv geometry, the combinatorial theory of the Maslov index, the theory of the metaplectic group and so on. It fills an important niche in the literature." -Mircea Cr'smareanu, Analele Stiintifice "This book concerns certain aspects of symplectic geometry and their application to quantum mechanics. ... This book seems best suited to someone who already has a solid background in quantum theory and wants to learn more about the symplectic geometric techniques used in quantization. ... the book contains useful information about various important topics." (Brian C. Hall, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2007 e) "This book covers ... symplectic geometry and their applications in quantum mechanics with an emphasis on phase space methods. ... The exposition is very detailed and complete proofs are given. ... the book takes a particularly fresh point of view on some of the topics and contains a lot of useful information for readers with some background in quantum theory and an interest in the use of symplectic techniques."

Synopsis
Introduction We have been experiencing since the 1970s a process of "symplectization" of S- ence especially since it has been realized that symplectic geometry is the natural language of both classical mechanics in its Hamiltonian formulation, and of its re'nement,quantum mechanics. The purposeof this bookis to providecorema- rial in the symplectic treatment of quantum mechanics, in both its semi-classical and in its "full-blown" operator-theoretical formulation, with a special emphasis on so-called phase-space techniques. It is also intended to be a work of reference for the reading of more advanced texts in the rapidly expanding areas of sympl- tic geometry and topology, where the prerequisites are too often assumed to be "well-known"bythe reader. Thisbookwillthereforebeusefulforbothpurema- ematicians and mathematical physicists. My dearest wish is that the somewhat novel presentation of some well-established topics (for example the uncertainty principle and Schrod ¨ inger's equation) will perhaps shed some new light on the fascinating subject of quantization and may open new perspectives for future - terdisciplinary research. I have tried to present a balanced account of topics playing a central role in the "symplectization of quantum mechanics" but of course this book in great part represents my own tastes. Some important topics are lacking (or are only alluded to): for instance Kirillov theory, coadjoint orbits, or spectral theory. We will moreover almost exclusively be working in ?at symplectic space: the slight loss in generality is, from my point of view, compensated by the fact that simple things are not hidden behind complicated "intrinsic" notation., Introduction We have been experiencing since the 1970s a process of "symplectization" of S- ence especially since it has been realized that symplectic geometry is the natural language of both classical mechanics in its Hamiltonian formulation, and of its re'nement, quantum mechanics.

It starts with a very readable introduction to symplectic geometry. Many topics are also of genuine interest for pure mathematicians working in geometry and topology.

- 8***5 (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI didn't see a verbal description of this book as "hardcover" or paperback. Cover design and price were similar to both cover styles. I thought I'd left a question for the seller, but I may have done something wrong. The package was too small to match the hardcovers previously received so I returned it unopened. Seller was very efficient, and packaging offered excellent protection. Haven't checked to see if refund was processed.
