Abstract

The novel features which show up in the process of quantization of a dynamical system on a multiply (nonsimply)-connected configuration space are analysed in the present paper. After rediscussing the path integral approach to the problem, we show how one can give a fiber bundle classification of the inequivalent quantizations associated with nonsimply connected spaces. We discuss various examples, and the generalization to the case in which, due to internal symmetries, a system can admit of nonscalar quantizations.
