Supersymmetric Quantum Theory and Non-Commutative Geometry
نویسنده
چکیده
Classical differential geometry can be encoded in spectral data, such as Connes’ spectral triples, involving supersymmetry algebras. In this paper, we formulate non-commutative geometry in terms of supersymmetric spectral data. This leads to generalizations of Connes’ non-commutative spin geometry encompassing noncommutative Riemannian, symplectic, complex-Hermitian and (Hyper-) Kähler geometry. A general framework for non-commutative geometry is developed from the point of view of supersymmetry and illustrated in terms of examples. In particular, the non-commutative torus and the non-commutative 3-sphere are studied in some detail. e-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]

Supersymmetric Quantum Theory and ( Non - Commutative ) Differential Geometry
In this paper we describe an approach to differential topology and geometry rooted in supersymmetric quantum theory. We show how the basic concepts and notions of differential geometry emerge from concepts and notions of the quantum theory of non-relativistic particles with spin, and how the classification of different types of differential geometry follows the classification of supersymmetries...
متن کاملMarginal and Relevant Deformations of N=4 Field Theories and Non-Commutative Moduli Spaces of Vacua
We study marginal and relevant supersymmetric deformations of the N = 4 super-Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions. Our primary innovation is the interpretation of the moduli spaces of vacua of these theories as non-commutative spaces. The construction of these spaces relies on the representation theory of the related quantum algebras, which are obtained from F -term constraints. These field th...
متن کاملThe Erwin Schrr Odinger International Institute for Mathematical Physics Field Theory on a Supersymmetric Lattice Field Theory on a Supersymmetric Lattice 1
A lattice-type regularization of the supersymmetric eld theories on a supersphere is constructed by approximating the ring of scalar superrelds by an integer-valued sequence of nite dimensional rings of supermatrices and using the diierencial calculus of non-commutative geometry. The regulated theory involves only nite number of degrees of freedom and is manifestly supersymmetric.
متن کاملOn Geometric Engineering of Supersymmetric Gauge Theories
We present the basic ideas of geometric engineering of the supersymmetric quantum field theories viewed as a low energy limit of type II strings and F-theory on singular Calabi Yau manifolds. We first give the main lines of toric geometry as it is a powerful technique to deal with compact complex manifolds. Then we introduce mirror symmetry which plays a crucial role in the study of superstring...
