Title: Deformation quantization of coadjoint orbits

Abstract: The coadjoint orbit method/philosophy suggests that irreducible unitary representations of a Lie group can be constructed as quantization of coadjoint orbits of the group. I will propose a geometric way to understand orbit method using deformation quantization, in the case of noncompact real Lie groups. This approach combines recent studies on quantization of symplectic singularities and their Lagrangian subvarieties. This is joint work with Conan Leung.
