We question the emergence of a minimal length in quantum spacetime, comparing two notions that appeared at various points in the literature: on the one side, the quantum length as the spectrum of an operator L in the Doplicher Fredenhagen…

Compact quantum metric spaces are order unit spaces along with a Lip norm. On the order unit space of the selfadjoint elements of the dense subalgebra of smooth elements in the quantum Heisenberg manifold we construct Lip norms.

We introduce a hypertopology, induced by an inframetric up to full quantum isometry, on the class of pointed proper quantum metric spaces, which are separable, possibly non-unital, C*-algebras endowed with an analogue of the Lipschitz…

We give a brief survey of many of the high-lights of our present understanding of the young subject of quantum metric spaces, and of quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance between them. We include examples.

In this work quantum physics in noncommutative spacetime is developed. It is based on the work of Doplicher et al. which allows for time-space noncommutativity. The Moyal plane is treated in detail. In the context of noncommutative quantum…

Noncommutative or quantum Riemannian geometry has been proposed as an effective theory for aspects of quantum gravity. Here the metric is an invertible bimodule map $\Omega^1\otimes_A\Omega^1\to A$ where $A$ is a possibly noncommutative or…

We consider some general aspects of the new noncommutative or quantum geometry coming out of the theory of quantum groups, in connection with Planck scale physics. A generalisation of Fourier or wave-particle duality on curved spaces…

Locally noncommutative spacetimes provide a refined notion of noncommutative spacetimes where the noncommutativity is present only for small distances. Here we discuss a non-perturbative approach based on Rieffel's strict deformation…

We review the present status of gauge theories built on various quantum space-times described by noncommutative space-times. The mathematical tools and notions underlying their construction are given. Different formulations of gauge theory…

We generalize the previously given algebraic version of "Feynman's proof of Maxwell's equations" to noncommutative configuration spaces. By doing so, we also obtain an axiomatic formulation of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics over such…

We develop a matricial version of Rieffel's Gromov-Hausdorff distance for compact quantum metric spaces within the setting of operator systems and unital C*-algebras. Our approach yields a metric space of ``isometric'' unital complete order…

This is a self-contained introduction to quantum Riemannian geometry based on quantum groups as frame groups, and its proposed role in quantum gravity. Much of the article is about the generalisation of classical Riemannian geometry that…

Following the general principles of noncommutative geometry, it is possible to define a metric on the space of pure states of the noncommutative algebra generated by the coordinates. This metric generalizes the usual Riemannian one. We…

A non--commutative analogue of the classical differential forms is constructed on the phase--space of an arbitrary quantum system. The non--commutative forms are universal and are related to the quantum mechanical dynamics in the same way…

We introduce a $W^*$-metric space, which is a particular approach to non-commutative metric spaces where a \textit{quantum metric} is defined on a von Neumann algebra. We generalize the notion of a quantum code and quantum error correction…

We introduce an area operator for the Moyal noncommutative plane. We find that the spectrum is discrete, but, contrary to the expectation formulated by other authors, not characterized by a "minimum-area principle". We show that an…

We propose a mathematical structure, based on a noncommutative geometry, which combines essential aspects of general relativity and quantum mechanics, and leads to correct "limiting cases" of both these theories. We quantize a groupoid…
