Polarized orbifolds associated to quantized Hamiltonian torus actions

Abstract: Suppose given an holomorphic and Hamiltonian action of a compact torus $T$ on a polarized Hodge manifold $M$. Assume that the action lifts to the quantizing line bundle, so that there is an induced unitary representation of $T$ on the associated Hardy space. If in addition the moment map is nowhere zero, for each weight $\boldsymbol{\nu}$ the $\boldsymbol{\nu}$-th isotypical component in the Hardy space of the polarization is finite-dimensional. Assuming that the moment map is transverse to the ray through $\boldsymbol{\nu}$, we give a gometric interpretation of the isotypical components associated to the weights $k\,\boldsymbol{\nu}$, $k\rightarrow +\infty$, in terms of certain polarized orbifolds associated to the Hamiltonian action and the weight. These orbifolds are generally not reductions of $M$ in the usual sense, but arise rather as quotients of certain loci in the unit circle bundle of the polarization; this construction generalizes the one of weighted projective spaces as quotients of the unit sphere, viewed as the domain of the Hopf map.
