• Born-Jordan Quantization: Physical Motivation: On the Quantization Problem.- Quantization of Monomials.- Basic Hamiltonian Mechanics.- Wave Mechanics and the Schrödinger Equation.- Mathematical Aspects of Born-Jordan Quantization: The Weyl Correspondence.- The Cohen Class.- Born-Jordan Quantization.- Shubin's Pseudo-Differential Calculus.- Born-Jordan Pseudo-Differential Operators.- Weak Values and the Reconstruction Problem.- Some Advanced Topics: Metaplectic Operators.- Symplectic Covariance Properties.- Symbol Classes and Function Spaces.

“In this book, the Born-Jordan and Weyl quantizations are confronted and discussed into details. … The book is well written and in great part self-contained, it is intended as an introduction to Born-Jordan quantization both for physicists and mathematicians. The subject is analyzed both from the physical and the mathematical point of view.” (Giovanni Rastelli, zbMATH 1338.81014, 2016)
