Conformally invariant quantization at order three (Q1425061): Difference between revisions

Let \((M,g)\) be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold and \(\mathcal{F}_\lambda(M)\) the space of densities of degree \(\lambda\) on \(M\). We denote by \(\mathcal{D}^k_{\lambda,\mu}(M)\) the space of differential operators from \(\mathcal{F}_\lambda(M)\) to \(\mathcal{F}_\mu(M)\) of degree \(k\) and by \(S^k_{\delta}(M)\) the corresponding space of symbols where \(\delta=\mu-\lambda\). In the paper under review the author constructs a canonical isomorphism (quantization map) \[ Q^3_{\lambda,\mu}:S^3_\delta(M) \to \mathcal{D}^k_{\lambda,\mu}(M) \] with the following properties: (i) it is conformally invariant; (ii) in the conformally flat case it is equivariant with respect to the group of conformal diffeomorphisms.
