Title: Quantum Time-Frequency Analysis and Pseudodifferential Operators

Abstract: We introduce Quantum Time-Frequency Analysis, which expands the approach of Quantum Harmonic Analysis to include modulations of operators in addition to translations. This is done by a projective representation of double-phase space, and we consider the associated matrix coefficients and integrated representation. This leads to the polarised Cohen's class, which is an isomorphism from Hilbert-Schmidt operators to a reproducing kernel Hilbert space, and has orthogonality relations similar to many objects in classical time-frequency analysis. By considering a class of windows for the polarised Cohen's class that is smaller than the class of Hilbert-Schmidt operators, then we find spaces of modulation spaces of operators, and we consider the properties of these spaces, including discretisation results and mapping properties between function modulation spaces. We also compare modulation spaces of operators to known symbol classes for pseudodifferential operators. In many cases, using rank-one examples of operators, we recover familiar objects and results from classical time-frequency analysis and the theory of pseudodifferential operators.
