The Podles quantum sphere S^2_q admits a natural commutative C*-subalgebra I_q with spectrum {0} \cup {q^{2k}: k = 0,1,2,...}, which may therefore be considered as a quantised version of a classical interval. We study here the compact…
Whereas the classical sphere $C P^1$ can be defined as the coordinate algebra generated by the matrix entries of a projector $e$ with $\trace(e)=1$, the fuzzy-sphere is defined in the same way by $\trace(e)=1+\lambda$. We show that the…
We describe the quantum sphere of Podle\'{s} for $c=0$ by means of a stereographic projection which is analogous to that which exhibits the classical sphere as a complex manifold. We show that the algebra of functions and the differential…
We prove an approximation result for Lipschitz functions on the quantum sphere $S_q^2$, from which we deduce that the two natural quantum metric structures on $S_q^2$ have quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance zero.
Starting with the braided quantum group $\operatorname{SU}_q(2)$ for a complex deformation parameter $q$ we perform the construction of the quotient $\operatorname{SU}_q(2)/\mathbb{T}$ which serves as a model of a quantum sphere. Then we…
We prove that every quasisphere is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of a sequence of locally smooth uniform quasispheres. We also prove an analogous result in the bi-Lipschitz setting. This extends recent results of D. Ntalampekos from dimension…
We study the spectral metric aspects of the standard Podles sphere, which is a homogeneous space for quantum SU(2). The point of departure is the real equivariant spectral triple investigated by Dabrowski and Sitarz. The Dirac operator of…
We show that spheres of positive constant curvature with $n$ ($n\geq3$) conic points converge to a sphere of positive constant curvature with two conic points (or called an (American) football) in Gromov-Hausdorff topology when the…
The Gromov-Hausdorff distance between two metric spaces measures how far the spaces are from being isometric. It has played an important and longstanding role in geometry and shape comparison. More recently, it has been discovered that the…
We give a new proof of a theorem by Le Gall & Paulin, showing that scaling limits of random planar quadrangulations are homeomorphic to the 2-sphere. The main geometric tool is a reinforcement of the notion of Gromov-Hausdorff convergence,…
We prove that there is a unique Levi-Civita connection on the one-forms of the Dabrowski-Sitarz spectral triple for the Podle\'{s} sphere $S^{2}_{q}$. We compute the full curvature tensor, as well as the Ricci and scalar curvature of the…
There are two $\mathbb Z_2$ orbifolds of the Podle\'s quantum two-sphere, one being the quantum two-disc $D_q$ and other the quantum two-dimensional real projective space $\mathbb RP^2_q$ . In this article we calculate the Hochschild and…
Given metric quotients $S$ and $S_n$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$, of a metric space $X$, sufficient conditions are provided on the data defining them guaranteeing that $S$ is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of $S_n$. These conditions are recognized…
We define even dimensional quantum spheres Sigma_q^2n that generalize to higher dimension the standard quantum two-sphere of Podle's and the four-sphere Sigma_q^4 obtained in the quantization of the Hopf bundle. The construction relies on…
A Heisenberg-Clifford realization of a deformed $U(sl_{2})$ by two parameters $p$ and $q$ is discussed. The commutation relations for this deformed algebra have interesting connection with the theta functions.
We prove new results on existence of solutions for the prescribed gaussian curvature problem on the euclidean sphere S^2. Those results are achieved by relating this problem with the holomorphic triples theory on Riemann surfaces. We think…
We prove that strictly convex 2-spheres, all of whose simple closed geodesics are close in length to 2{\pi}, are C^0 Cheeger-Gromov close to the round sphere.
The dual coalgebra of Podle\'s' quantum sphere O_q(S^2_c) is determined explicitly. This result is used to classify all finite dimensional covariant first order differential calculi over O_q(S^2_c) for all but exceptional values of the…
On looking at the literature associated with string theory one finds statements that a sequence of matrix algebras converges to the 2-sphere (or to other spaces). There is often careful bookkeeping with lengths, which suggests that one is…
We extend the classical theory of sphere theorems to the transverse geometry of Riemannian foliations. In this setting, we establish transverse analogues of the Grove-Shiohama diameter sphere theorem and of the Berger-Klingenberg…
