On the emergence of gauge structures and generalized spin when quantizing on a coset space

It has been known for some time that there are many inequivalent nquantizations possible when the configuration space of a system is a coset nspace G/H. Viewing this classical system as a constrained system on the group nG, we show that these inequivalent quantizations can be recovered from a ngeneralization of Dirac s approach to the quantization of such a constrained nsystem wi..
