Following [Beem C., Peelaers W., Rastelli L., Comm. Math. Phys. 354 (2017), 345-392] and [Etingof P., Stryker D., SIGMA 16 (2020), 014, 28 pages], we undertake a detailed study of twisted traces on quantizations of Kleinian singularities of type ₙ₋₁. In particular, we give explicit integral formulas for these traces and use them to determine when a trace defines a positive Hermitian form on the corresponding algebra. This leads to a classification of unitary short star-products for such quantizations, a problem posed by Beem, Peelaers, and Rastelli in connection with 3-dimensional superconformal field theory. In particular, we confirm their conjecture that for ≤ 4 a unitary short star-product is unique and compute its parameter as a function of the quantization parameters, giving exact formulas for the numerical functions by Beem, Peelaers, and Rastelli. If = 2, this, in particular, recovers the theory of unitary spherical Harish-Chandra bimodules for ₂. Thus, the results of this paper may be viewed as a starting point for a generalization of the theory of unitary Harish-Chandra bimodules over enveloping algebras of reductive Lie algebras [Vogan Jr. D.A., Annals of Mathematics Studies, Vol. 118, Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 1987] to more general quantum algebras. Finally, we derive recurrences to compute the coefficients of short star-products corresponding to twisted traces, which are generalizations of discrete Painlevé systems.
