Abstract: Deformation quantization has been introduced in the seventies with the aim of quantizing classical mechanical systems. The main idea consists in constructing a new non-commutative product, called star product, which deforms the standard pointwise one and encodes the information of classical dynamics. A special class of star products is the one induced by symmetries, as introduced by Drinfel'd.
Drinfel'd approach consists in defining a new tool called twist which deforms the Hopf algebra structure of the universal enveloping algebra and, as a consequence, of any module algebra.
I will explain the strength of this method, as it defines a star product in a very simple and elegant way, and its algebraic and geometrical features. Nevertheless, I will point out that not every star product can be induced by a Drinfel'd twist and provide concrete counterexamples. In spite of the fact that twist is defined in a purely algebraic setting, it is interesting to observe that the obstructions lie in the realm of symplectic geometry.
