    Let \(X\) be a generalized flag manifold of a connected complex semisimple Lie group \(G\). Let \({\mathcal R}= R(T^*X)\) be the algebra of regular functions on the cotangent bundle \(T^*X\). The canonical symplectic form on \(T^*X\) defines a Poisson bracket \(\{\cdot,\cdot\}\) on \({\mathcal R}\). Then the equivariant deformation problem is to construct a graded associative and \(G\)-equivariant star product \(*\) on \({\mathcal R}[t]\) of the following kind: if \(\varphi,\psi\in{\mathcal R}\), the product is given by \[ \varphi* \psi= \varphi\psi+ {1\over 2} \{\varphi,\psi\} t+ \sum^\infty_{p=2} C_p(\varphi,\psi) t^p, \] where \[ C_p(\varphi, \psi)\in{\mathcal R}^{j+k-p} (\varphi\in{\mathcal R}^j, \psi\in{\mathcal R}^k),\quad C_p(\varphi, \psi)= (-1)^p C_p(\psi, \varphi), \] \(\mu^x* \varphi- \varphi*\mu^x= t\{\mu^x, \varphi\}\) (\(x\in{\mathfrak g}\), the Lie algebra). The specialization \(t=1\) yields the algebra \({\mathcal D}={\mathfrak D}^{1/2}(X)\) of linear twisted differential operators for the square root of the canonical bundle \({\mathcal K}\) on \(X\) and \(*\) corresponds to a quantization map from \({\mathcal R}\) into \({\mathcal D}\).
