We construct quantum group-valued canonical connections on quantum homogeneous spaces, including a q-deformed Dirac monopole on the quantum sphere of Podles quantum differential coming from the 3-D calculus of Woronowicz on $SU_q(2)$ . The…

Let $Y$ be a pointed space and let $\mathcal E(Y^r)$ be the group of based self-equivalences of $Y^r$, $r\geq 2$. For $Y$ a homotopy commutative $H$-group we construct a subgroup $\mathcal E_{\mathrm{Mat}}(Y^r)$ of $\mathcal E(Y^r)$ which…

Noncommutative K\"ahler structures were recently introduced by the second author as a framework for studying noncommutative K\"ahler geometry on quantum homogeneous spaces. It was subsequently observed that the notion of a positive vector…

Representing Z/N as roots of unity, we restrict a natural U(1)-action on the Heegaard quantum sphere to Z/N, and call the quotient spaces Heegaard quantum lens spaces. Then we use this representation of Z/N to construct an associated…

We provide geometric quantization of the vertical cotangent bundle V^*Q equipped with the canonical Poisson structure. This is a momentum phase space of non-relativistic mechanics with the configuration bundle Q -> R. The goal is the…

We prove that the class of principal coactions is closed under one-surjective pullbacks in an appropriate category of algebras equipped with left and right coactions. This allows us to handle cases of C*-algebras lacking two different…

Let $G$ be a Lie group, with an invariant non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form on its Lie algebra, let $\pi$ be the fundamental group of an orientable (real) surface $M$ with a finite number of punctures, and let $\bold C$ be a family of…

We study the topology of the moduli space of flat SU(2)-bundles over a nonorientable surface X. This moduli space may be identified with the space of homomorphisms Hom(\pi_1(X),SU(2)) modulo conjugation by SU(2). In particular, we compute…

We propose a sheaf-theoretic approach to the theory of differential calculi on quantum principal bundles over non-affine bases. After recalling the affine case we define differential calculi on sheaves of comodule algebras as sheaves of…

A construction is proposed for linear connections on non-commutative algebras. The construction relies on a generalisation of the Leibnitz rules of commutative geometry and uses the bimodule structure of $\Omega^1$. A special role is played…

Let $H$ be a semisimple algebraic group. We prove the semistable reduction theorem for $\mu$--semistable principal $H$--bundles over a {\it smooth projective variety $X$} defined over the field $\bc$. When $X$ is a {\it smooth projective…

We identify the cotangent bundle Lie algebroid of a Poisson homogeneous space G/H of a Poisson Lie group G as a quotient of a transformation Lie algebroid over G. As applications, we describe the modular vector fields of G/H, and we…

We consider finite-dimensional Hopf algebras $u$ which admit a smooth deformation $U\to u$ by a Noetherian Hopf algebra $U$ of finite global dimension. Examples of such Hopf algebras include small quantum groups over the complex numbers,…

Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface equipped with an anti-holomorphic involution \sigma. Let G be a connected complex reductive affine algebraic group, and let \sigma_G be a real form of G. We consider holomorphic principal…

Motivated by the search for new examples of "noncommutative manifolds", we study the noncommutative geometry of the group C*-algebras of various discrete groups. The examples we consier are the infinite dihedral group ${\bf Z}…

This paper develops the tools of formal algebraic geometry in the setting of noncommutative manifolds, roughly ringed spaces locally modeled on the free associative algebra. We define a notion of noncommutative coordinate system, which is a…

We describe the package "IncidenceCorrespondenceCohomology" for the computer algebra system Macaulay2. The main feature concerns the computation of characters and dimensions for the cohomology groups of line bundles on the incidence…

We study closures of GL_2(R)-orbits on the total space of the Hodge bundle over the moduli space of curves under the assumption that they are algebraic manifolds. We show that, in the generic stratum, such manifolds are the whole stratum,…

Extending earlier work(*), we examine the deformation of the canonical symplectic structure in a cotangent bundle $T^\star(\Q)$ by additional terms implying the Poisson non-commutativity of both configuration and momentum variables. In this…

In this talk, we review the basics concepts of fuzzy physics and quantum field theory on the Groenwald-Moyal Plane as examples of noncommutative spaces in physics. We introduce the basic ideas, and discuss some important results in these…
