Contact geometry and quantum mechanics
We present a generally covariant approach to quantum mechanics in which generalized positions, momenta and time variables are treated as coordinates on a fundamental “phase-spacetime”. We show that this covariant starting point makes quantization into a purely geometric flatness condition. This make...
