Mehler's formula and functional calculus (Q2423879)

Several formulas involving the quantization of singular Hamiltonians are derived by the use of Mehler's formula. Three appendices serve as relevant source for background material. In the first section, the Weyl quantization of \(F(x^2 + \xi^2)\) is calculated explicitly, when \(F\) is of the Schwartz class in one dimension. In particular, the indicatrix of a disc and some curves are considered. The \(n\)-dimensional case is given in Section 2, devoted to the indicatrix of Euclidean balls, a monotonicity result and ellipsoids.
