We review basic notions and methods of noncommutative geometry and their applications to analysis and geometry on foliated manifolds.
We outline a brief description of non commutative geometry and present some applications in string theory. We use the fuzzy torus as our guiding example.
Fuzzy tori are finite dimensional C*-algebras endowed with an appropriate notion of noncommutative geometry inherited from an ergodic action of a finite closed subgroup of the torus, which are meant as finite dimensional approximations of…
In this thesis we study different aspects of noncommutativity in quantum mechanics, field theory and gravity. We give particular emphasis on the underlying symmetries of these theories. Deformations of usual symmetries like the external…

This monograph studies $KK$-theory in its unbounded model. The central object is the $KK$-bordism group obtained by imposing the $KK$-bordism relation on unbounded $KK$-cycles. In the paradigm of noncommutative geometry, an unbounded…
Borrowing ideas from elliptic complex geometry, we approach M-theory compactifications on real toric fibrations. Precisely, we explore real toric equations rather than complex ones exploited in F-theory and related dual models. These…
We develop a sheaf theory approach to toric noncommutative geometry which allows us to formalize the concept of mapping spaces between two toric noncommutative spaces. As an application we study the `internalized' automorphism group of a…
Building on recent progress in the study of compactifications of $6d$ $(1,0)$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) on Riemann surfaces to $4d$ $\mathcal{N}=1$ theories, we initiate a systematic study of compactifications of $5d$…
Matrix models are a promising candidate for a nonperturbative formulation of the superstring theory. It is possible to study how the standard model and other phenomenological models appear from the matrix model, and estimate the probability…
We consider the simplest gauge theories given by one- and two- matrix integrals and concentrate on their stringy and geometric properties. We remind general integrable structure behind the matrix integrals and turn to the geometric…
The main topic of this thesis are flux compactifications. Firstly, we study dimensional reductions of type II and eleven-dimensional supergravities using exceptional generalised geometry. We start by presenting the needed mathematical…
We explore 6-dimensional compactifications of F-theory exhibiting (2,0) superconformal theories coupled to gravity that include discretely charged superconformal matter. Beginning with F-theory geometries with Abelian gauge fields and…
We review an approach towards a covariant formulation of Matrix theory based on a discretization of the 11d membrane. Higher dimensional algebraic structures, such as the quantum triple Nambu bracket, naturally appear in this approach. We…
We find evidence for a duality between the standard matrix formulations of M theory and a background independent theory which extends loop quantum gravity by replacing SU(2) with a supersymmetric and quantum group extension of SU(16). This…
Tropical algebraic geometry offers new tools for elimination theory and implicitization. We determine the tropicalization of the image of a subvariety of an algebraic torus under any homomorphism from that torus to another torus.
Non-commutative geometry has significantly contributed to quantum mechanics by providing mathematical tools to extract topological and geometrical information from these systems. This thesis explores the methods used by Jean Bellissard and…
Suppose $k$ is a nonarchimedean local field, $K$ is a maximally unramified extension of $k$, and $\mathbf{G}$ is a connected reductive $k$-group. If $\mathbf{T}$ is a $K$-minisotropic maximal $k$-torus in $\mathbf{G}$, then we use…
We consider matrix factorizations and homological mirror symmetry on the torus T^2 using a Landau-Ginzburg description. We identify the basic matrix factorizations of the Landau-Ginzburg superpotential and compute the full spectrum, taking…
We study some aspects when one consider the existence of one extra-dimension in addition to a non-commutative space-time. We present here two different examples, where the first one provides a scenario were it is possible to relate the…
