In five spacetime dimensions, instantons are finite energy, solitonic particles. We describe the dynamics of these objects in the presence of a Chern-Simons interaction. For U(N) instantons, we show that the 5d Chern-Simons term induces a…
We present an account of the ADHM construction of instantons on Euclidean space-time $\mathbb{R}^4$ from the point of view of noncommutative geometry. We recall the main ingredients of the classical construction in a coordinate algebra…
We give some new explicit examples of putatively optimal projective spherical designs. i.e., ones for which there is numerical evidence that they are of minimal size. These form continuous families, and so have little apparent symmetry in…
In this article, we introduce and study the concept of $\textit{spherical-vectors}$, which can be perceived as a natural extension of the arguments of complex numbers in the context of quaternions. We initially establish foundational…
We show that instanton bundles of rank $r\le 2n-1$, defined as the cohomology of certain linear monads, on an $n$-dimensional projective variety with cyclic Picard group are semistable in the sense of Mumford-Takemoto. Furthermore, we show…
Through techniques afforded by $C^*$-algebras and Hilbert modules, we study the topology of spaces which parametrize families of instanton gauge fields on noncommutative Euclidean four-spheres $S^4_\sigma$. By deforming the ADHM…
These notes aim at a pedagogical introduction to recent work on deformation of spaces and deformation of vector bundles over them, which are relevant both in mathematics and in physics, notably monopole and instanton bundles. We first…
To some Hecke symmetries (i.e. Yang-Baxter braidings of Hecke type) we assign algebras called braided non-commutative spheres. For any such algebra, we introduce and compute a q-analog of the Chern-Connes index. Unlike the standard…
We study rank 2 torus-equivariant torsion-free sheaves on the complex projective space. For reflexive sheaves we derive a simple formula for the Chern polynomial, and in the general torsion-free case we introduce an iterative construction…
We build an SU(2)-Hopf bundle over a quantum toric four-sphere whose radius is non central. The construction is carried out using local methods in terms of sheaves of Hopf-Galois extensions. The associated instanton bundle is presented and…
We complete the proof of a theorem we announced and partly proved in [Math. Nachr. 271 (2004), 69-90, math.AG/0111299]. The theorem concerns a family of curves on a family of surfaces. It has two parts. The first was proved in that paper.…
We discover a simple construction of a four-dimensional family of smooth surfaces of general type with $p_g(S)=q(S)=0$, $K^2_S=3$ with cyclic fundamental group $C_{14}$. We use a degeneration of the surfaces in this family to find…
We study hyper-spheres, spheres and circles, with respect to an indefinite metric, in a tangent space on a 4-dimensional differentiable manifold. The manifold is equipped with a positive definite metric and an additional tensor structure of…
Non-singular instantons are shown to exist on noncommutative R^4 even with a U(1) gauge group. Their existence is primarily due to the noncommutativity of the space. The relation between U(1) instantons on noncommutative R^4 and the…
The recently proposed physical projector approach to the quantisation of gauge invariant systems is applied to the U(1) Chern-Simons theory in 2+1 dimensions as one of the simplest examples of a topological quantum field theory. The…
Instanton-dyons, also known as instanton-monopoles or instanton-quarks, are topological constituents of the instantons at nonzero temperature and nonzero expectation value of $A_4$. While the interaction between instanton-dyons has been…
Using the theory of noncommutative geometry in a braided monoidal category, we improve upon a previous construction of noncommutative families of instantons of arbitrary charge on the deformed sphere S^4_\theta. We formulate a notion of…
We give a \theta-deformed version of the ADHM construction of SU(2) instantons with arbitrary topological charge on the sphere S^4. Classically the instanton gauge fields are constructed from suitable monad data; we show that in the…
We continue our study of the noncommutative algebraic and differential geometry of a particular class of deformations of toric varieties, focusing on aspects pertinent to the construction and enumeration of noncommutative instantons on…
Noncommutative analogues of n-dimensional balls are defined by repeated application of the quantum double suspension to the classical low-dimensional spaces. In the `even-dimensional' case they correspond to the Twisted Canonical…
