Abstract

We consider the information metric and Berry connection in the context of noncommutative matrix geometry. We propose that these objects give a new method of characterizing the fuzzy geometry of matrices. We first give formal definitions of these geometric objects and then explicitly calculate them for the well-known matrix configurations of fuzzy S2S^2 and fuzzy S4S^4. We find that the information metrics are given by the usual round metrics for both examples, while the Berry connections coincide with the configurations of the Wu-Yang monopole and the Yang monopole for fuzzy S2S^2 and fuzzy S4S^4, respectively. Then, we demonstrate that the matrix configurations of fuzzy SnS^n (n=2,4)(n=2,4) can be understood as images of the embedding functions SnRn+1S^n\rightarrow \textbf{R}^{n+1} under the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization map. Based on this result, we also obtain a mapping rule for the Laplacian on fuzzy S4S^4.
