Covariant integral quantization combines operator-valued measure with the symmetry group of the phase space. Covariant means that the quantization map intertwines classical (geometric operation) and quantum (unitary transformations) symmetries. Integral means that we use all resources of integral calculus, in order to implement the method when we apply it to singular functions, or distributions, for which the integral calculus is an essential ingredient. We first review this quantization scheme before revisiting the cases where symmetry covariance is described by the Weyl-Heisenberg group and the affine group respectively, and we emphasize the fundamental role played by Fourier transform in both cases. As an original outcome of our generalisations of the Wigner-Weyl transform, we show that many properties of the Weyl integral quantization, commonly viewed as optimal, are actually shared by a large family of integral quantizations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e20100787","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,15]],"date-time":"2018-10-15T03:43:01Z","timestamp":1539574981000},"page":"787","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Variations \u00e0 la Fourier-Weyl-Wigner on Quantizations of the Plane and the Half-Plane"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Herv\u00e9","family":"Bergeron","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"ISMO, UMR 8214 CNRS, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Sud, 91405 Orsay, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7681-7672","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jean-Pierre","family":"Gazeau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"APC, UMR 7164 CNRS, Universit\u00e9 Paris Diderot, Sorbonne Paris Cit\u00e9, 75205 Paris, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Fourier, J.
