To be even more precise, I'm interesting in articles like this R. J. Eden, The Quantum Mechanics of Non-Holonomic Systems, Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 205, No. 1083 (Mar. 7, 1951), pp. 583-595, which I just found.

Imagine a billiard ball of very small mass rolling without slipping or twisting over a plane or over some other surface. In classical case such problems involve quite a fascinating geometry. See, for example, http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0611812 ( A. Agrachev, Rolling balls and Octonions)

Here is an article I submitted to ArXiv some time ago: http://uk.arxiv.org/abs/0708.0929 (Relativity without tears). It is about Special Relativity (in fact a sort of review of it) and contains nothing unorthodox at all (I hope), although the angle of view might be somewhat unusual. The...

I'll appreciate references about quantum mechanics of the rolling ball.

http://uk.arxiv.org/abs/physics/0605057 These test problems were used as weekly control works for the first year physics students at Novosibirsk State University in 2005. Solutions of the problems are also given (in Russian).
