Abstract: We generalize several recent results concerning the asymptotic expansions of Bergman kernels to the framework of geometric quantization and establish an asymptotic symplectic identification property. More precisely, we study the asymptotic expansion of the $G$-invariant Bergman kernel of the spin^c Dirac operator associated with high tensor powers of a positive line bundle on a symplectic manifold. We also develop a way to compute the coefficients of the expansion, and compute the first few of them, especially, we obtain the scalar curvature of the reduction space from the $G$-invariant Bergman kernel on the total space. These results generalize the corresponding results in the non-equivariant setting, which has played a crucial role in the recent work of Donaldson on stability of projective manifolds, to the geometric quantization setting. As another kind of application, we generalize some Toeplitz operator type properties in semi-classical analysis to the framework of geometric quantization. The method we use is inspired by Local Index Theory, especially by the analytic localization techniques developed by Bismut and Lebeau.

Review text

The authors consider the following setting: \(X\)~is a compact symplectic manifold, \(L\)~is a Hermitian line bundle over~\(X\) with a connection whose curvature is compatible with the symplectic form, \(E\)~is a Hermitian vector bundle on~\(X\), and \(G\)~is a compact, connected Lie group acting on \(X\), \(L\), and~\(E\) while preserving the connections and the metrics. The spin\(^c\) Dirac operator \(D_p\) acts on the \((0,q)\)-forms on~\(X\) taking values in \(L^p\otimes E\), and the orthogonal projection from the space of such forms onto the \(G\)-invariant part of \(\ker D_p\) is the Bergman projection under consideration. The authors announce estimates and expansions for the corresponding \(G\)-invariant Bergman kernel function that are asymptotic as the power \(p\to\infty\). Proofs will appear elsewhere. The article can be seen as a sequel to a paper of the first author with \textit{X.~Dai} and \textit{K.~Liu} [C. R. Math. Acad. Sci., Paris 339, No. 3, 193--198 (2004; Zbl 1057.58018)], which considered the case when the group~\(G\) is trivial.
