We study a deformation of infinitesimal diffeomorphisms of a smooth manifold. The deformation is based on a general twist. This leads to a differential geometry on a noncommutative algebra of functions whose product is a star-product. The…

This is an extended version of a communication made at the international conference ``Noncommutative Geometry and Physics'' held at Orsay in april 2007. In this proceeding, we make a review of some noncommutative constructions connected to…

I review some of my recent work on non-lorentzian geometry. I review the classification of kinematical Lie algebras and their associated Klein geometries. I then describe the Cartan geometries modelled on them and their characterisation in…

We propose a new definition of so called Hamiltonian forms in n-plectic geometry and show that they have a non-trivial Lie infinity-algebra structure.

This paper defines and examines the basic properties of noncommutative analogues of almost complex structures, integrable almost complex structures, holomorphic curvature, cohomology, and holomorphic sheaves. The starting point is a…

Many quantum groups and quantum spaces of interest can be obtained by cochain (but not cocycle) twist from their corresponding classical object. This failure of the cocycle condition implies a hidden nonassociativity in the noncommutative…

The non-commutative algebraic analog of the moduli of vector and covector fields is built. The structure of moduli of derivations of non-commutative algebras are studied. The canonical coupling is introduced and the conditions for…

Multisymplectic geometry is a generalization of symplectic geometry suitable for n-dimensional field theories, in which the nondegenerate 2-form of symplectic geometry is replaced by a nondegenerate (n+1)-form. The case n = 2 is relevant to…

Starting from the concept of the universal exterior algebra in non-commutative differential geometry we construct differential forms on the quantum phase-space of an arbitrary system. They bear the same natural relationship to quantum…

This informal introduction is an extended version of a three hours lecture given at the 6th Peyresq meeting ``Integrable systems and quantum field theory''. In this lecture, we make an overview of some of the mathematical results which…

We give a new characterization of flat affine manifolds in terms of an action of the Lie algebra of classical infinitesimal affine transformations on the bundle of linear frames. We characterize flat affine symplectic Lie groups using…

We extend the Zariski topology on simp A, the finite dimensional simple A-representations, to a non-commutative topology (in the sense of Fred Van Oystaeyen) on rep A, all finite dimensional A-representations, using Jordan-Holder…

We give an overview of the applications of noncommutative geometry to physics. Our focus is entirely on the conceptual ideas, rather than on the underlying technicalities. Starting historically from the Heisenberg relations, we will explain…

This is an abridged version of our Habilitation thesis. In these notes, we aim to summarize our research interests and achievements as well as motivate what drives our work: symmetry, structure and invariants. The paradigmatic example which…

In this paper we investigate the possibility of constructing a complete quantization procedure consisting of geometric and deformation quantization. The latter assigns a noncommutative algebra to a symplectic manifold, by deforming the…

We show that $\mathfrak{aff}(n)$, the Lie algebra of affine transformations of ${\mathbb R}^n,$ is formally and analytically nondegenerate in the sense of A. Weinstein. This means that every analytic (resp., formal) Poisson structure…

Geometric quantization of a Poisson manifold need not imply quantization of its symplectic leaves. We provide the leafwise geometric quantization of a Poisson manifold, seen as a foliated one, whose quantum algebra restricted to each leaf…

We construct quantum K-invariants in non-archimedean analytic geometry. Contrary to the classical approach in algebraic geometry via perfect obstruction theory, we build on our previous works on the foundations of derived non-archimedean…

This note provides the first example of a nontrivial connected component of the space of symplectic structures standard at infinity in dimension four.

We prove that there are no nontrivial finite-dimensional Lie representations of certain Poisson algebras of polynomials on a compact symplectic manifold. This result is used to establish the existence of a universal obstruction to…
