Abstract
We give an explicit construction of the coherent states for an arbitrary irreducible representation. We also construct the symplectic structure on the manifold of coherent states, find canonical variables and discuss various classical limits of quantum-mechanical systems with relevant observables that obey commutation relations.Keywords
