On the Noncommutative Geometry of the Endomorphism Algebra of a Vector Bundle
نویسنده
چکیده
In this letter we investigate some aspects of the noncommutative differential geometry based on derivations of the algebra of endomorphisms of an oriented complex hermitian vector bundle. We relate it, in a natural way, to the geometry of the underlying principal bundle and compute the cohomology of its complex of noncommutative differential forms.

Noncommutative generalization of SU(n)-principal ber bundles: a review
This is an extended version of a communication made at the international conference Noncommutative Geometry and Physics held at Orsay in april 2007. In this proceeding, we make a review of some noncommutative constructions connected to the ordinary ber bundle theory. The noncommutative algebra is the endomorphism algebra of a SU(n)-vector bundle, and its di erential calculus is based on its Lie...
متن کاملThe Lie Algebra of Smooth Sections of a T-bundle
In this article, we generalize the concept of the Lie algebra of vector fields to the set of smooth sections of a T-bundle which is by definition a canonical generalization of the concept of a tangent bundle. We define a Lie bracket multiplication on this set so that it becomes a Lie algebra. In the particular case of tangent bundles this Lie algebra coincides with the Lie algebra of vector fie...
متن کاملGauge-equivariant Hilbert bimodules and crossed products by endomorphisms
C*-algebra endomorphisms arising from superselection structures with non-trivial centre define a ’rank’ and a ’first Chern class’. Crossed products by such endomorphisms involve the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a vector bundle having the above-mentioned rank and first Chern class, and can be used to construct a duality for abstract (nonsymmetric) tensor categories vs. group bundles acting on (nonsy...
متن کاملIdentification of Riemannian foliations on the tangent bundle via SODE structure
The geometry of a system of second order differential equations is the geometry of a semispray, which is a globally defined vector field on TM. The metrizability of a given semispray is of special importance. In this paper, the metric associated with the semispray S is applied in order to study some types of foliations on the tangent bundle which are compatible with SODE structure. Indeed, suff...
متن کاملPoincaré Duality and Spinc Structures for Complete Noncommutative Manifolds
We prove a noncompact Serre-Swan theorem characterising modules which are sections of vector bundles not necessarily trivial at infinity. We then identify the endomorphism algebras of the resulting modules. The endomorphism results continue to hold for the generalisation of these modules to noncommutative, nonunital algebras. Finally, we apply these results to not necessarily compact noncommuta...
