Abstract

The quantization of systems on cotangent bundles is studied, revealing the entanglement between metric and magnetic field structures. The analysis shows how the geometry of configuration space and the presence of magnetic fields combine in a non-trivial way in the quantum theory. The role of the symplectic structure in this entanglement is elucidated.
