A finite non-commutative geometry consists of a fuzzy space together with a Dirac operator satisfying the axioms of a real spectral triple. This paper addreses the question of how to extract information about these geometries from the…
In this largely expository paper we give a self-contained treatment of the Dirac operator. Emphasizing the algebraic point of view we first sketch the necessary prerequisites from Clifford algebras and their representations and then define…
In this article we construct the chirality and Dirac operators on noncommutative AdS_2. We also derive the discrete spectrum of the Dirac operator which is important in the study of the spectral triple associated with AdS_2. It is shown…
Given a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ admitting a metaplectic structure, and choosing a positive $\omega$-compatible almost complex structure $J$ and a linear connection $\nabla$ preserving $\omega$ and $J$, Katharina and Lutz Habermann…
Finite real spectral triples are defined to characterise the non-commutative geometry of a fuzzy torus. The geometries are the non-commutative analogues of flat tori with moduli determined by integer parameters. Each of these geometries has…
We develop notions of twisted spinor bundle and twisted pre-quantum bundle on quasi-Hamiltonian G-spaces. The main result of this paper is that we construct a Dirac operator with index given by positive energy representation of loop group.…
We study the behavior of the spectrum of the Dirac operator on collapsing S^1-bundles. Convergent eigenvalues will exist if and only if the spin structure is projectable.
In this paper, we prove the invariance of the spectrum of the basic Dirac operator defined on a Riemannian foliation $(M,\mathcal{F})$ with respect to a change of bundle-like metric. We then establish new estimates for its eigenvalues on…
In order to facilitate the comparison of Riemannian homogeneous spaces of compact Lie groups with noncommutative geometries ("quantizations") that approximate them, we develop here the basic facts concerning equivariant vector bundles and…
We determine the spectrum of Kostant's cubic Dirac operator $D^{1/3}$ on locally symmetric Lorentzian manifolds of the form $\Gamma\backslash {\rm Osc}_1$, where ${\rm Osc}_1$ is the four-dimensional oscillator group and $\Gamma\subset {\rm…
We give a derivation of the Dirac operator on the noncommutative $2$-sphere within the framework of the bosonic fuzzy sphere and define Connes' triple. It turns out that there are two different types of spectra of the Dirac operator and…
In this paper, under some integrability condition, we prove that an electrical perturbation of the discrete Dirac operator has purely absolutely continuous spectrum for the one dimensional case. We reduce the problem to a non-self-adjoint…
We study the spectrum of the Dirac operator on hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume. Depending on the spin structure it is either discrete or the whole real line. For link complements in S^3 we give a simple criterion in terms of linking…
The q-deformed fuzzy sphere $S_{qF}^2(N)$ is the algebra of $(N+1)\times(N+1)$ dim. matrices, covariant with respect to the adjoint action of $\uq$ and in the limit $q\to 1$, it reduces to the fuzzy sphere $S_{F}^2(N)$. We construct the…
We study general conditions under which the computations of the index of a perturbed Dirac operator $D_{s}=D+sZ$ localize to the singular set of the bundle endomorphism $Z$ in the semi-classical limit $s\to \infty $. We show how to use…
We generalise the construction of fuzzy CP^N in a manner that allows us to access all noncommutative equivariant complex vector bundles over this space. We give a simplified construction of polarization tensors on S^2 that generalizes to…
We present a new description of the spectrum of the (spin-) Dirac operator $D$ on lens spaces. Viewing a spin lens space $L$ as a locally symmetric space $\Gamma\backslash \operatorname{Spin}(2m)/\operatorname{Spin}(2m-1)$ and exploiting…
We derive a number of spectral results for Dirac operators in geometrically nontrivial regions in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\mathbb{R}^3$ of tube or layer shapes with a zigzag type boundary using the corresponding properties of the Dirichlet…
A class of real spectral triples that are similar in structure to a Riemannian manifold but have a finite-dimensional Hilbert space is defined and investigated, determining a general form for the Dirac operator. Examples include fuzzy…
We give a noncommutative version of the complex projective space CP^2 and show that scalar QFT on this space is free of UV divergencies. The tools necessary to investigate Quantum fields on this fuzzy CP^2 are developed and possibilities to…
