Abstract

In this paper, we describe and compare two different C*-algebraic deformation quantizations (in Rieffel’s sense [Rl, R2, R3]) of the ‘multiplicative’ Poisson structure on the Lie group SU(2), which are ‘compatible’ with Woronowicz’s C*-algebraic quantization [Wol, Wo2] of the group structure of SU(2) by pseudogroups (or quantum groups). Due to the space limitation, in this paper we only describe the results and leave their proof to a separate paper [Sh3].
