Species of spaces

Classical limits of quantum systems are shown to lead to different conceptions of spaces different from the classical one underlying the process of quantization of such systems. The accent is put in situations where traces of noncommutativity, witness of an emblematic feature of quantum mechanise remains when the Planck constant vanishes, in the framework of noncommutative geometry. Complex canonical transformations, spin-statistics, topological quantum fields theory, long time semiclassical approximation and underlying chaotic dynamics are considered, together with a comparison/fusion of classical unpredictability with quantum indeterminism.
