In this paper we review our results on the quantization of a rigid body. The fact that the configuration space is not simply connected yields two inequivalent quantizations. One of the quantizations allows us to recover classically double-valued wave functions as single valued sections of a non-trivial complex line bundle. This reopens the problem of a physical interpretation of these wave functions.

Abstract
In this paper we review our results on the quantization of a rigid body. The fact that the configuration space is not simply connected yields two inequivalent quantizations. One of the quantizations allows us to recover classically double-valued wave functions as single valued sections of a non-trivial complex line bundle. This reopens the problem of a physical interpretation of these wave functions.File in questo prodotto:
