SUMMARY:The Problem of Quantization
LOCATION:zoom
DESCRIPTION:Edward Witten – Institute for Advanced Study \nWednesday, April 7, 10:45AM\
 n“The Problem of Quantization”\n \nAbstract: Because of the operator orderi
 ng problem, there is no natural, general procedure to quantize a classical 
 system.   Ludwig Faddeev used to say, accordingly, that quantization is ``a
 n art, not a science.''  In this lecture, I will describe the partial remed
 ies to this problem that are provided by geometric quantization, deformatio
 n quantization, and quantization by branes, and  some of the applications o
 f the latter.\n
