Given a bicovariant differential calculus $(\mathcal{E}, d)$ such that the braiding map is diagonalisable in a certain sense, the bimodule of two-tensors admits a direct sum decomposition into symmetric and anti-symmetric tensors. This is…
We prove a Koszul formula for the Levi-Civita connection for any pseudo-Riemannian bilinear metric on a class of centered bimodule of noncommutative one-forms. As an application to the Koszul formula, we show that our Levi-Civita connection…
We compare the constructions of Levi-Civita connections for noncommutative algebras developed in arXiv:1505.07330, arXiv:1809.06721, arXiv:2403.13735. The assumptions in these various constructions differ, but when they are all defined, we…
We consider unitary cocycle deformations of covariant $\ast$-differential calculi. We prove that complex structures, holomorphic bimodules and Chern connections on the deformed calculus are twists of their untwisted counterparts. Moreover,…
It is shown that conventional "covariant" derivative of the Levi-Civita tensor is not really covariant. Adding compensative terms, it is possible to make it covariant and to be equal to zero. Then one can be introduced a curvature in the…
We study aspects of noncommutative Riemannian geometry of the path algebra arising from the Kronecker quiver with N arrows. To start with, the framework of derivation based differential calculi is recalled together with a discussion on…
We study the differential and Riemannian geometry of algebras $A$ endowed with an action of a triangular Hopf algebra $H$ and noncommutativity compatible with the associated braiding. The modules of one forms and of braided derivations are…
Let $g$ be a reductive Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero. Suppose $g$ acts on a complex of vector spaces $M$ by $i_\lambda$ and $L_\lambda$, which satisfy the identities as contraction and Lie derivative do for smooth…
We study how the Riemannian structure on a manifold can be usefully reconstructed from its codifferential $\delta$, including a formula $\nabla_\omega\eta={1\over 2}( \delta(\omega\eta)-(\delta\omega)\eta+\omega(\delta\eta)…
For a Lie groupoid $G$, the differential forms on its nerve comprise a double complex. A natural question is if this statement extends to forms with values in a representation $V$ of $G$. In this paper, we research two types of covariant…
A Koszul duality-type correspondence between coderived categories of conilpotent differential graded Lie coalgebras and their Chevalley-Eilenberg differential graded algebras is established. This gives an interpretation of Lie coalgebra…
We make some observations about Rosenberg's Levi-Civita connections on noncommutative tori, noting the non-uniqueness of torsion-free metric-compatible connections without prescribed connection operator for the inner *-derivations, the…
This paper (the seventh paper in a series of eight) continues the development of our theory of multivector and extensor calculus on smooth manifolds. Here we deal first with the concepts of ordinary Hodge coderivatives, duality identities,…
A diffeological connection on a diffeological vector pseudo-bundle is defined just the usual one on a smooth vector bundle; this is possible to do, because there is a standard diffeological counterpart of the cotangent bundle. On the other…
We introduce a method in differential geometry to study the derivative operators of Siegel modular forms. By determining the coefficients of the invariant Levi-Civita connection on a Siegel upper half plane, and further by calculating the…
An algebraic formulation is given for the embedded noncommutative spaces over the Moyal algebra developed in a geometric framework in \cite{CTZZ}. We explicitly construct the projective modules corresponding to the tangent bundles of the…
We equip a family of algebras whose noncommutativity is of Lie type with a derivation based differential calculus obtained, upon suitably using both inner and outer derivations, as a reduction of a redundant calculus over the Moyal four…
We initiate a study of projections and modules over a noncommutative cylinder, a simple example of a noncompact noncommutative manifold. Since its algebraic structure turns out to have many similarities with the noncommutative torus, one…
This paper is part of a series of papers where an arithmetic analogue of classical differential geometry is being developed. In this arithmetic differential geometry functions are replaced by integer numbers, derivations are replaced by…
The slightly subtle notion of covariant Lie derivatives of \textit{bundle-valued} differential forms is crucial in many applications in physics, notably in the computation of conserved currents in gauge theories, and yet the literature on…
