Noncommutative Geometry and Quantization

The purpose of these lectures is to survey several aspects of noncommutative geometry, with emphasis on its applicability to particle physics and quantum field theory. By now, it is a commonplace statement that spacetime at short length —or high energy— scales is not the Cartesian continuum of macroscopic experience, and that older methods of working with functions on manifolds must be rethough...

Noncommutative geometry and reality

We introduce the notion of real structure in our spectral geometry. This notion is motivated by Atiyah’s KR-theory and by Tomita’s involution J. It allows us to remove two unpleasant features of the “Connes-Lott” description of the standard model, namely, the use of bivector potentials and the asymmetry in the Poincare duality and in the unimodularity condition.

Noncommutative Geometry and Physics

The two existing theories which successfully encode our knowledge of space-time are : • General Relativity • The Standard Model General relativity describes space-time as far as large scales are concerned (cf. Figure 1 and [2] for many more suggestive thoughts and pictures) and is based on the geometric paradigm discovered by Riemann. It replaces the flat (pseudo) metric of Poincaré, Einstein, ...

Noncommutative Geometry and Arithmetic

This is an overview of recent results aimed at developing a geometry of noncommutative tori with real multiplication, with the purpose of providing a parallel, for real quadratic fields, of the classical theory of elliptic curves with complex multiplication for imaginary quadratic fields. This talk concentrates on two main aspects: the relation of Stark numbers to the geometry of noncommutative...
