We prove an infinite-dimensional version of "quantization commutes with reduction" in the framework of geometric quantization of Chern-Simons gauge theory, focusing on the genus one case. The proof is complex-analytic and relies on the…
We study the action of the mapping class group of an oriented genus g surface with n punctures and a disc removed on a Poisson algebra which arises in the combinatorial description of Chern-Simons gauge theory when the gauge group is a…
The aim of this review is to present an overview over available models and approaches to non-commutative gauge theory. Our main focus thereby is on gauge models formulated on flat Groenewold-Moyal spaces and renormalizability, but we will…
We propose a new wiew on the structure of quantum mechanics and postulate a q-deformed algebra of observables. We find equations of motion for this system, which guarantee a unitary time developement. We solve this equations for simple…
We summarize our recently proposed approach to quantum field theory on noncommutative curved spacetimes. We make use of the Drinfel'd twist deformed differential geometry of Julius Wess and his group in order to define an action functional…
We relate the geometrical construction of (2+1)-spacetimes via grafting to phase space and Poisson structure in the Chern-Simons formulation of (2+1)-dimensional gravity with vanishing cosmological constant on manifolds of topology $R\times…
Coset constructions in the framework of Chern-Simons topological gauge theories are studied. Two examples are considered: models of the types ${U(1)_p\times U(1)_q\over U(1)_{p+q}}\cong U(1)_{pq(p+q)}$ with $p$ and $q$ coprime integers, and…
The (2+1)-dimensional analog self-dual gravity which is obtained via spacetime dimension reduction of the (3+1)-dimensional Holst action without reducing the internal gauge group is studied. A Chern-Simons formulation for this theory is…
Whenever a given Poisson manifold is equipped with discrete symmetries the corresponding algebra of invariant functions or the algebra of functions twisted by the symmetry group can have new deformations, which are not captured by…
We described the $q$-deformed phase space. The $q$-deformed Hamilton eqations of motion are derived and discussed. Some simple models are considered.
The importance of the first-class constraint algebra of general relativity is not limited just by its self-contained description of the gauge nature of spacetime, but it also provides conditions to properly evolve the geometry by selecting…
We derive discrete and oscillatory Chern-Simons matrix models. The method is based on fundamental properties of the associated orthogonal polynomials. As an application, we show that the discrete model allows to prove and extend the…
We explain how to translate several recent results in derived algebraic geometry to derived differential geometry. These concern shifted Poisson structures on NQ-manifolds, Lie groupoids, smooth stacks and derived generalisations, and…
The goal of this paper is two-fold: we generalize the arithmetic Chern-Simons theory over totally imaginary number fields studied in [Kim15, CKK+16] to arbitrary number fields (with real places) and provide new examples of non-trivial…
This lecture consists of two sections. In section 1 we consider the simplest version of a q-deformed Heisenberg algebra as an example of a noncommutative structure. We first derive a calculus entirely based on the algebra and then formulate…
Being gauge non-invariant, a Chern-Simons (2k-1)-form seen as a Lagrangian of gauge theory on a (2k-1)-dimensional manifold leads to the gauge conservation law of a modified Noether current.
The paper is devoted to peculiarities of the deformation quantization in the algebro-geometric context. A direct application of the formality theorem to an algebraic Poisson manifold gives a canonical sheaf of categories deforming coherent…
The algebra and calculus of generalized differential forms are reviewed and employed to construct a class of generalized connections and to investigate their properties. The class includes generalized connections which are flat when…
We present the general method to introduce the generalized Chern-Simons form and the descent equation which contain the scalar field in addition to the gauge fields. It is based on the technique in a noncommutative differential geometry…
