The notion of a translation map in a quantum principal bundle is introduced. A translation map is then used to prove that the cross sections of a quantum fibre bundle $E(B,V,A)$ associated to a quantum principal bundle $P(B,A)$ are in…
We review Hopf-Galois extensions, in particular faithfully flat ones, accepted to be the noncommutative algebraic dual of a principal bundle. We also make a short digression into how quantum groups relate to Hopf-Galois extensions. Several…
In earlier work (*) we studied an extension of the canonical symplectic structure in the cotangent bundle of an affine space ${\cal Q}={\bf R}^N$, by additional terms implying the Poisson non-commutativity of both configuration and momentum…
We present an introduction to the use of noncommutative geometry for gauge theories with emphasis on a construction of instantons for a class of four dimensional toric noncommutative manifolds. These instantons are solutions of self-duality…
Weak coalgebra-Galois extensions are studied. A notion of an invertible weak entwining structure is introduced. It is proven that, within an invertible weak entwining structure, the surjectivity of the canonical map implies bijectivity…
Some conditions for the Galois map to be injective are given in the groupoid acting on a noncommutative ring context. In the particular case in which the Galois extension is a central Galois algebra, it is given a complete characterization…
We consider a canonical bundle formula for generically finite proper surjective morphisms and obtain subadjunction formulae for minimal log canonical centers of log canonical pairs. We also treat related topics and applications.
We study some generalized instanton algebras which are required to describe `instantonic complex rank 2 bundles'. The spaces on which the bundles are defined are not prescribed from the beginning but rather are obtained from some natural…
We study the Ehresmann--Schauenburg bialgebroid of a noncommutative principal bundle as a quantization of the gauge groupoid of a classical principal bundle. We show that the gauge group of the noncommutative bundle is isomorphic to the…
We define a loop to be quantum nullhomotopic if and only if it admits a nonempty quantum set of extensions to the unit disk. We show that the canonical loop in the unit circle is not quantum nullhomotopic, but that every loop in the real…
It was recently shown (by the second author and D\'{i}az Garc\'{i}a, Krutov, Somberg, and Strung) that every relative line module over an irreducible quantum flag manifold $\mathcal{O}_q(G/L_S)$ admits a unique $\mathcal{O}_q(G)$-covariant…
Quantum principal bundles or principal comodule algebras are re-interpreted as principal bundles within a framework of Synthetic Noncommutative Differential Geometry. More specifically, the notion of a noncommutative principal bundle within…
An algebraic framework for noncommutative bundles with (quantum) homogeneous fibres is proposed. The framework relies on the use of principal coalgebra extensions which play the role of principal bundles in noncommutative geometry which…
We present a new characterization of Lusztig's canonical quotient group. We also define a duality map: to a pair consisting of a nilpotent orbit and a conjugacy class in its fundamental group, the map assigns a nilpotent orbit in the…
This article provides a basic introduction to some concepts of non-commutative geometry. The importance of quantum groups and quantum spaces is stressed. Canonical non-commutativity is understood as an approximation to the quantum group…
We describe a locally trivial quantum principal U(1)-bundle over the quantum space S^2_{pq} which is a noncommutative analogue of the usual Hopf bundle. We also provide results concerning the structure of its total space algebra…
We prove that isomorphism classes of principal bundles over a diffeological space are in bijection to certain maps on its free loop space, both in a setup with and without connections on the bundles. The maps on the loop space are smooth…
Instanton bundles on $\mathbb{P}^3$ have been at the core of the research in Algebraic Geometry during the last thirty years. Motivated by the recent extension of their definition to other Fano threefolds of Picard number one, we develop…
In hep-th/0411028 a new manifestly covariant canonical quantization method was developed. The idea is to quantize in the phase space of arbitrary histories first, and impose dynamics as first-class constraints afterwards. The Hamiltonian is…
A nilmanifold is a quotient of a nilpotent group $G$ by a co-compact discrete subgroup. A complex nilmanifold is one which is equipped with a $G$-invariant complex structure. We prove that a complex nilmanifold has trivial canonical bundle.…
