Moyal bracket
Suitably normalized antisymmetrization of the phase-space star product / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In physics, the Moyal bracket is the suitably normalized antisymmetrization of the phase-space star product.
The Moyal bracket was developed in about 1940 by José Enrique Moyal, but Moyal only succeeded in publishing his work in 1949 after a lengthy dispute with Paul Dirac.[1][2] In the meantime this idea was independently introduced in 1946 by Hip Groenewold.[3]
