This open access book explains geometric quantization from a physicist’s perspective. After presenting the general formalism, it delves into several examples reflecting current research interests in high-energy physics and condensed matter physics. Applications explore Chern-Simons theory, theta vacuum, the Hall effect, fluid dynamics, and elements of noncommutative geometry.
The content is tailored to appeal to researchers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates in high-energy physics, particle physics, and mathematical physics. A background in differential geometry and group theory is beneficial for a comprehensive understanding of the discussions.

About the Author
V. Parameswaran Nair is a Distinguished Professor of Physics at the City College of the City University of New York. Prof. Nair obtained his Ph.D. in 1983 from Syracuse University defending a thesis on skyrmions and topological features of quantum chromodynamics. He held research associate positions at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton and at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, Santa Barbara before joining the faculty at Columbia University. He moved to City University of New York in 1993. Prof. Nair has published over 160 research papers covering such diverse areas as solitons (skyrmions), anomalies in gauge theories, Chern-Simons theories, field theories at finite temperature, nonperturbative aspects of gauge theories (particularly in 2+1 dimensions), noncommutative geometry, group theoretic approach to fluid dynamics, Casimir effect, etc. Notable research contributions include identifying the relevance of twistors in scattering amplitudes, string tension and mass gap in (2+1)-dimensional gauge theories, anyon wave equations and higher dimensional generalizations of the quantum Hall effect.
Prof. Nair has also published a textbook Quantum Field Theory: A Modern Perspective (Springer, 2005); an advanced undergraduate-level book Concepts in Particle Physics : A Concise Introduction to the Standard Model (World Scientific, 2018) and was the main editor for Particles, Fields and Topology: Celebrating A P Balachandran (World Scientific, 2023). He has also given lectures at several summer schools in physics including the British Universities Summer School in Theoretical Elementary Particle Physics; the Saalburg Summer School on Theoretical Physics (Germany); the Benasque TAE International Workshop on High Energy Physics (Spain); and the Prospects in Theoretical Physics Summer School at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
