Abstract:
The quantization of vector bundles is defined. Examples are constructed for the well controlled case of equivariant vector bundles over compact coadjoint orbits. (A coadjoint orbit is a symplectic manifold with a transitive, semisimple symmetry group.) In preparation for the main result, the quantization of coadjoint orbits is discussed in detail.
This subject should not be confused with the quantization of the total space of a vector bundle such as the cotangent bundle.
