Berezin-Toeplitz quantization for eigenstates of the Bochner Laplacian on symplectic manifolds
In order to generalize the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization to arbitrary symplectic manifolds one has to find a substitute for the space of holomorphic sections of tensor powers of the quantum line bundle. The first candidate is the kernel of the Dirac operator due to its similarities with the space of holomorphic sections in the Kähler case, especially the asymptotics of the kernel of the orthogonal projection on both spaces. The second suitable candidate is the space of eigenstates of the renormalized Bochner-Laplacian operator, corresponding to eigenvalues localized near the origin. The paper under review constructs the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization for this last space and shows that it has the correct semiclassical behavior. The difference between this setting and the previously performed quantization by the kernel of the Dirac operator comes from possible presence of eigenvalues localized near the origin but different from zero. In this case the study becomes more difficult.
