The Wigner transform is the bridge between Hilbert space operators to phase-space quantities (c-numbers). Use for issues relating to the Weyl correspondence (the inverse of the Wigner transform), the Wigner function (the Wigner-transform of the density matrix) and, in general, Quantum Mechanics in phase space issues, such as the *-product, the Wigner transform of the operator multiplication operation. May also use for distributions such as the Husimi.

Is there a Schrödinger equation for phase space?

The Schrödinger equation is generally formulated in position space $$ i \hbar \frac{\partial}{\partial t}\psi(x,t) = \hat H_x \psi(x,t) = \left [ \frac{-\hbar^2}{2m}\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x^2} + …
