An overview about C*-algebra bundles with a Z-grading is presented, with particular emphasis on classification questions. In particular, we discuss the role of the representable KK(X ; -, -)-bifunctor introduced by Kasparov. As an…
Quantum homogeneous vector bundles are introduced by a direct description of their sections in the context of Woronowicz type compact quantum groups. The bundles carry natural topologies inherited from the quantum groups, and their sections…
Quantum analogs of Stiefel manifolds $SU_{q}(n)/SU_q(n-m)$ were introduced by Podkolzin \& Vainerman. The underlying $C^*$-algebra $C(SU_{q}(n)/SU_q(n-m))$ can be described as the $C^*$-subalgebra of $C(SU_q(n))$ generated by elements of…
We report on the connections between noncommutative principal circle bundles, Pimsner algebras and strongly graded algebras. We illustrate several results with the examples of quantum weighted projective and lens spaces and…
We establish a noncommutative generalisation of the Borel-Weil theorem for the Heckenberger-Kolb calculi of the quantum Grassmannians. The result is formulated in the framework of quantum principal bundles and noncommutative complex…
The leitmotiv of this review is noncommutative principal U(1)-bundles and associated line bundles. In the first part I give a brief introduction to Hopf-Galois theory and its applications, from field extensions to principal group actions. I…
We determine the $K$-theory of the $C^{*}$-algebra $C(SU_{-1}(2))$ and describe its spectrum. Moreover, we exhibit a continuous $C^{*}$-bundle over $[-1,0)$ whose fibre at $q$ is isomorphic to $C(SU_{q}(2))$.
In this paper we present results obtained from the unification of $SU(2)$ coherent states with $\mathbb{C}P^N$ sigma models defined on the Riemann sphere having finite actions. The set of coherent states generated by a vector belonging to a…
Let $X^k_{m,n}=\Sigma^k (\mathbb R\mathbb P^m/\mathbb R\mathbb P^n)$. In this note we completely determine the values of $k,m,n$ for which the total Stiefel-Whitney class $w(\xi)=1$ for any vector bundle $\xi$ over $X^k_{m,n}$.
The quantum general linear supergroup GLq(m|n) is defined and its structure is studied systematically. Quantum homogeneous supervector bundles are introduced following Connes' theory, and applied to develop the representation theory of…
For $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $q\in [0,1[$, the Vaksman-Soibelman quantum sphere $S^{2n+1}_q$ is described by an associative algebra $\mathcal{A}(S^{2n+1}_q)$ deforming the algebra of polynomial functions on the 2n+1 dimensional unit sphere. Its…
We describe an approach to the noncommutative instantons on the 4-sphere based on quantum group theory. We quantize the Hopf bundle S^7 --> S^4 making use of the concept of quantum coisotropic subgroups. The analysis of the semiclassical…
With appropriate notions of Hermitian vector bundles and connections over weighted graphs which we allow to be locally infinite, we prove Feynman-Kac-type representations for the corresponding semigroups and derive several applications…
The $K_0$-group of the C*-algebra of multipullback quantum complex projective plane is known to be $\mathbb{Z}^3$, with one generator given by the C*-algebra itself, one given by the section module of the noncommutative (dual) tautological…
We recast basic topological concepts underlying differential geometry using the language and tools of noncommutative geometry. This way we characterize principal (free and proper) actions by a density condition in (multiplier) C*-algebras.…
We study the Pimsner algebra associated with the module of continuous sections of a Hilbert bundle, and prove that it is a continuous bundle of Cuntz algebras. We discuss the role of such Pimsner algebras w.r.t. the notion of inner…
We develop the noncommutative geometry (bundles, connections etc.) associated to algebras that factorise into two subalgebras. An example is the factorisation of matrices $M_2(\C)=\C\Z_2\cdot\C\Z_2$. We also further extend the coalgebra…
We generalize the Serre-Swan theorem to non-commutative C$^{*}$-algebras. For a Hilbert C$^{*}$-module $X$ over a C$^{*}$-algebra ${\cal A}$, we introduce a hermitian vector bundle $\exx$ associated to $X$. We show that there is a linear…
A general noncommutative-geometric theory of principal bundles is presented. Quantum groups play the role of structure groups. General quantum spaces play the role of base manifolds. A differential calculus on quantum principal bundles is…
In 1997, N.M. Kumar published a paper which introduced a new tool of use in the construction of algebraic vector bundles. Given a vector bundle on projective n-space, a well known theorem of Quillen-Suslin guarantees the existence of…
