Abstract

We develop the noncommutative geometry (bundles, connections etc.) associated to algebras that factorise into two subalgebras. An example is the factorisation of matrices M2(\C)=\CZ2\CZ2M_2(\C)=\C\Z_2\cdot\C\Z_2. We also further extend the coalgebra version of theory introduced previously, to include frame resolutions and corresponding covariant derivatives and torsions. As an example, we construct qq-monopoles on all the Podle\'s quantum spheres Sq,s2S^2_{q,s}.
