States and representations in deformation quantization

Abstract

In this review we discuss various aspects of representation theory in deformation quantization starting with a detailed introduction to the concepts of states as positive functionals and the GNS construction. But also Rieffel induction of representations as well as strong Morita equivalence, the Dirac monopole and the strong Picard groupoid are discussed.
