Using Coherent States to Make Physically Correct Classical-to-Quantum Procedures That Help Resolve Nonrenomalizable Fields Including Einstein’s Gravity

Canonical quantization covers a broad class of classical systems, but that does not include all the problems of interest. Affine quantization has the benefit of providing a successful quantization of many important problems including the quantization of half-harmonic oscillators [1], non-renormalizable scalar fields, such as (?12)3 [2] and (?12)3 [3], as well as the quantum theory of Einstein’s general relativity [4]. The features that distinguish affine quantization are emphasized, especially, that affine quantization differs from canonical quantization only by the choice of classical variables promoted to quantum operators. Coherent states are used to ensure proper quantizations are physically correct. While quantization of non-renormalizable covariant scalars and gravity are difficult, we focus on appropriate ultralocal scalars and gravity that are fully soluble while, in that case, implying that affine quantization is the proper procedure to ensure the validity of affine quantizations for non-renormalizable covariant scalar fields and Einstein’s gravity.
