Quantum mechanics in phase space: The Schrödinger and the Moyal representations

I will present some recent results on the dimensional extension of pseudo-differential operators. Using this formalism it is possible to generalize the standard Weyl quantization and obtain, in a systematic way, several phase space (operator) representations of quantum mechanics. I will present the Schrodinger and the Moyal phase space representations and discuss some of their properties, namely in what concerns the relation with deformation quantization.
