Given a field $F$, an \'etale extension $L/F$ and an Azumaya algebra $A/L$, one knows that there are extensions $E/F$ such that $A \otimes_F E$ is a split algebra over $L \otimes_F E$. In this paper we bound the degree of a minimal…
Let $(A,\sigma)$ be an Azumaya algebra with orthogonal involution over a ring $R$ with $2\in R^\times$. We show that if $(A,\sigma)$ admits an improper isometry, i.e., an element $a\in A$ with $\sigma(a)a=1$ and $\mathrm{Nrd}_{A/R}(a)=-1$,…
We consider moduli spaces of Azumaya algebras on K3 surfaces and construct an example. In some cases we show a derived equivalence which corresponds to a derived equivalence between twisted sheaves. We prove if $A$ and $A'$ are Morita…
The stack of relative splittings of a special Azumaya algebra plays a key role in the Non-Abelian Hodge Theory for curves in positive characteristics. In this paper, we define and study an open substack consisting of the so-called very good…
We study generically split octonion algebras over schemes using techniques of ${\mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory. By combining affine representability results with techniques of obstruction theory, we establish classification results over…
We construct a relative version of topological $K$-theory of dg categories over an arbitrary quasi-compact, quasi-separated $\mathbb{C}$-scheme $X$. This has as input a $\text{Perf}(X)$-linear stable $\infty$-category and output a sheaf of…
For an Azumaya algebra $A$ which is free over its centre $R$, we prove that the $K$-theory of $A$ is isomorphic to $K$-theory of $R$ up to its rank torsion. We observe that a graded central simple algebra, graded by an abelian group, is a…
This note presents an analysis of a class of operator algebras constructed as cross-sectional algebras of flat holomorphic matrix bundles over a finitely bordered Riemann surface. These algebras are partly inspired by the bundle shifts of…
We give a geometrical criterion to determine when a quaternion algebra over the function field of a stable elliptic surface X is an Azumaya algebra over X.
Androulidakis and Skandalis showed how to associate a holonomy groupoid, a smooth convolution algebra and a C*-algebra to any singular foliation. In this note, we consider the singular foliations of a one-dimensional manifold given by…
Let T -> S be a finite flat morphism of degree two between regular integral schemes of dimension at most two (and with 2 invertible), having regular branch divisor D. We establish a bijection between Azumaya quaternion algebras on T and…
In this paper we compute the deformation theory of a special class of algebras, namely of Azumaya algebras on a manifold ($C^{\infty}$ or complex analytic).
We prove the existence of noncrossed product and indecomposable division algebras over the function field of a smooth p-adic curve, especially when the curve does not admit a smooth model over Z_p. Thus we generalize arXiv 0907.0670. To…
We construct open-closed maps on various versions of Hochschild and cyclic homology of the Fukaya $A_\infty$ algebra of a Lagrangian submanifold modeled on differential forms. The $A_\infty$ algebra may be curved. Properties analogous to…
We study moduli spaces of maximal orders in a ramified division algebra over the function field of a smooth projective surface. As in the case of moduli of stable commutative surfaces, we show that there is a Koll\'ar-type condition giving…
In this lecture I review how a matrix/Azumaya-type noncommutative geometry arises for D-branes in string theory and how such a geometry serves as an origin of the master nature of D-branes; and then highlight an abundance conjecture on…
Suppose $A$ is an Azumaya algebra over a ring $R$ and $\sigma$ is an involution of $A$ extending an order-$2$ automorphism $\lambda:R\to R$. We say $\sigma$ is extraordinary if there does not exist a Brauer-trivial Azumaya algebra…
Spanning sets for vertex operator algebras satisfying difference-zero and difference-one conditions have been extensively studied in the recent years. In this paper, we extend these results. More specifically, we show that for a suitably…
Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety over a number field $k$ such that $\operatorname{End}(A)$ is noncommutative. We show that $A$ splits modulo all but finitely many primes of $k$. We prove this by considering the subalgebras of…
The quantized flag manifold, which is a $q$-analogue of the ordinary flag manifold, is realized as a non-commutative scheme, and we can define the category of $D$-modules on it using the framework of non-commutative algebraic geometry;…
