Abstract

Let H\mathcal{H} be a noncommutative regular projective curve over a perfect field kk. We study global and local properties of the Auslander-Reiten translation τ\tau and give an explicit description of the complete local rings, with the involvement of τ\tau. We introduce the τ\tau-multiplicity eτ(x)e_{\tau}(x), the order of τ\tau as a functor restricted to the tube concentrated in xx. We obtain a local-global principle for the (global) skewness s(H)s(\mathcal{H}), defined as the square root of the dimension of the function (skew-) field over its centre. In the case of genus zero we show how the ghost group, that is, the group of automorphisms of H\mathcal{H} which fix all objects, is determined by the points xx with eτ(x)>1e_{\tau}(x)>1. Based on work of Witt we describe the noncommutative regular (smooth) projective curves over the real numbers; those with s(H)=2s(\mathcal{H})=2 we call Witt curves. In particular, we study noncommutative elliptic curves, and present an elliptic Witt curve which is a noncommutative Fourier-Mukai partner of the Klein bottle. If H\mathcal{H} is weighted, our main result will be formulae for the orbifold Euler characteristic, involving the weights and the τ\tau-multiplicities. As an application we will classify the noncommutative 22-orbifolds of nonnegative Euler characteristic, that is, the real elliptic, domestic and tubular curves. Throughout, many explicit examples are discussed.
