NONCOMMUTATIVE RIEMANNIAN AND SPIN GEOMETRY OF THE STANDARD q-SPHERE

چکیده

We study the quantum sphere Cq [S] as a quantum Riemannian manifold in the quantum frame bundle approach. We exhibit its 2-dimensional cotangent bundle as a direct sum Ω ⊕ Ω in a double complex. We find the natural metric, volume form, Hodge * operator, Laplace and Maxwell operators. We show that the q-monopole as spin connection induces a natural Levi-Civita type connection and find its Ricci curvature and q-Dirac operator ∇/. We find the possibility of an antisymmetric volume form quantum correction to the Ricci curvature and Lichnerowicz-type formulae for ∇/. We also remark on the geometric q-Borel-Weil-Bott construction.

Noncommutative Manifolds the Instanton Algebra and Isospectral Deformations

We give new examples of noncommutative manifolds that are less standard than the NC-torus or Moyal deformations of R. They arise naturally from basic considerations of noncommutative differential topology and have non-trivial global features. The new examples include the instanton algebra and the NC-4-spheres S4 θ . We construct the noncommutative algebras A = C∞(S4 θ ) of functions on NCsphere...

On Noncommutative and semi-Riemannian Geometry

We introduce the notion of a semi-Riemannian spectral triple which generalizes the notion of spectral triple and allows for a treatment of semiRiemannian manifolds within a noncommutative setting. It turns out that the relevant spaces in noncommutative semi-Riemannian geometry are not Hilbert spaces any more but Krein spaces, and Dirac operators are Kreinselfadjoint. We show that the noncommuta...

Supersymmetric Quantum Theory and Non-Commutative Geometry

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...

Moduli Spaces of Instantons on Noncommutative 4-Manifolds

Studied are moduli spaces of self dual or anti-self dual connections on noncommutative 4-manifolds, especially deformation quantization of compact spin Riemannian 4-manifolds and their isometry groups have 2-torus subgroup. Then such moduli spaces of irreducible modules associated with highestweights of compact connected semisimple Lie groups are smooth manifolds with dimension determined by th...

Commutative Geometries are Spin Manifolds

In [1], Connes presented axioms governing noncommutative geometry. He went on to claim that when specialised to the commutative case, these axioms recover spin or spinc geometry depending on whether the geometry is “real” or not. We attempt to flesh out the details of Connes’ ideas. As an illustration we present a proof of his claim, partly extending the validity of the result to pseudo-Riemann...
