Lectures on the Geometry of Quantization
by Sean Bates, Alan Weinstein
Publisher: University of California at Berkeley 1997
ISBN/ASIN: 0821807986
ISBN-13: 9780821807989
Number of pages: 134
Description:
This is an introduction to the ideas of microlocal analysis and the related symplectic geometry, with an emphasis on the role which these ideas play in formalizing the transition between the mathematics of classical dynamics (hamiltonian flows on symplectic manifolds) and that of quantum mechanics (unitary flows on Hilbert spaces).

The Geometrization of Physics
by Richard S. Palais - University of California at Irvine
The major goal of these notes is to develop an observation that not only can gauge fields of the Yang-Mills type be unified with the Einstein model of gravitation, but also that when this unification is made they are described by pure geometry.
