In a previous paper (arXiv:1410.5207) certain birational transformations were constructed between the noncommutative schemes associated to quadratic and cubic three dimensional Sklyanin algebras. In the current paper we consider the inverse…
The purpose of this paper is first to give an asymptotic formula for the holomorphic analytic torsion forms of a fibration associated with increasing powers of a given line bundle. Secondly, we generalize this formula, thanks to the theory…
We consider the group $\mathcal G$ which is the semidirect product of the group of analytic functions with values in ${\mathbb C}^*$ on the circle and the group of analytic diffeomorphisms of the circle that preserve the orientation. Then…
In this work, we introduce a class of Timmermann's measured multiplier Hopf *-algebroids called algebraic quantum transformation groupoids of compact type. Each object in this class admits a Pontrjagin-like dual called an algebraic quantum…
Torsion invariants for manifolds which are not simply connected were introduced by K. Reidemeister and generalized to higher dimensions by W. Franz. The Reidemeister torsion, was the first invariant of manifolds which was not a homotopy…
To a given tiling a non commutative space and the corresponding C*-algebra are constructed. This includes the definition of a topology on the groupoid induced by translations of the tiling. The algebra is also the algebra of observables for…
We use a G2-structure on a 7-dimensional Riemannian manifold with a fixed metric to define an octonion bundle with a fiberwise non-associative product. We then define a metric-compatible octonion covariant derivative on this bundle that is…
We analyze the algebraic structures of G--Frobenius algebras which are the algebras associated to global group quotient objects. Here G is any finite group. These algebras turn out to be modules over the Drinfeld double of the group ring…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive complex algebraic group, and $E$ a complex elliptic curve. Let $G_E$ denote the connected component of the trivial bundle in the stack of semistable $G$-bundles on $E$. We introduce a complex analytic…
We provide an extension of the Gromov--Zimmer Embedding Theorem for Cartan geometries of [3] to tractor bundles carrying any invariant connection, including tractor connections and prolongation connections of first BGG operators for…
We elucidate the connection between the N=1 beta-deformed SYM theory and noncommutativity. Our starting point is the T-duality generating transformation involved in constructing the gravity duals of both beta-deformed and noncommutative…
In a minimalistic view, the use of noncommutative coordinates can be seen just as a way to better express non-local interactions of a special kind: 1-particle solutions (wavefunctions) of the equation of motion in the presence of an…
We give a pedagogical account of noncommutative gauge and gravity theories, where the exterior product between forms is deformed into a $\star$-product via an abelian twist (e.g. the Groenewold-Moyal twist). The Seiberg-Witten map between…
An algebraic framework for noncommutative bundles with (quantum) homogeneous fibres is proposed. The framework relies on the use of principal coalgebra extensions which play the role of principal bundles in noncommutative geometry which…
A version of the Bondal-Orlov conjecture, proved by Bridgeland, states that if $X$ and $Y$ are smooth complex projective threefolds linked by a flop, then they are derived equivalent. Van den Bergh gave a new proof of Bridgeland's theorem…
We present a new approach to cyclic homology that does not involve the Connes differential and is based on a `noncommutative equivariant de Rham complex' of an associative algebra. The differential in that complex is a sum of the Karoubi-de…
We enhance the action of higher abelian gauge theory associated to a gerbe on an M5-brane with an action of a torus ${\mathbb T}^n (n\ge 2)$, by a noncommutative ${\mathbb T}^n$-deformation of the M5-brane. The ingredients of the…
In this survey article we describe some geometric results in the theory of noncommutative rings and, more generally, in the theory of abelian categories. Roughly speaking and by analogy with the commutative situation, the category of graded…
The purpose of this paper is to extend our previous work on the variational formula for the Bismut-Cheeger eta form without the kernel bundle assumption by allowing the spin$^c$ Dirac operators to be twisted by isomorphic vector bundles,…
For a closed manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric, a triangulation, a representation of its fundamental group on an Hilbert module of finite type (over of finite von Neumann algebra), and a Hermitian structure on the flat bundle…
