Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids in physics and noncommutative geometry (Q2575589): Difference between revisions

This is a survey article on the links between Poisson geometry, noncommutative geometry and quantization, which is accessible for non-specialists of the subject. The author starts from the imprimitivity theorem by Mackey and the notion of Morita equivalence. He introduces Poisson groupoids and associated \(C^*\)-algebras. Then he defines Lie algebroids and focuses on the links between Lie algebroids and Poisson geometry. This allows him to introduce a classical analogue of Mackey's theorem in Poisson geometry. Finally, he explains the different notions of quantization. The numerous references should help the reader who would want to discover this area.
