These are the expanded notes of a course given at the Summer school "Geometric, topological and algebraic methods for quantum field theory" held at Villa de Leyva, Colombia in July 2015. We first give an introduction to non-commutative…
This review paper is a continuation of hep-th/0012145 and it deals primarily with noncommutative ${\mathbb R}^{d}$ spaces. We start with a discussion of various algebras of smooth functions on noncommutative ${\mathbb R}^{d}$ that have…
After a review of the results in arXiv:1203.3184 [math-ph] about Pythagorean inequalities for products of spectral triples, I will present some new results and discuss classes of spectral triples and states for which equality holds.
We give an overview of the applications of noncommutative geometry to physics. Our focus is entirely on the conceptual ideas, rather than on the underlying technicalities. Starting historically from the Heisenberg relations, we will explain…
These lecture notes were written during a mini-course on noncommutative Lp-spaces at the Basque Center of Applied Mathematics. It starts presenting the theory of weights and traces in von Neumann algebra, followed by the theory of…
This talk is an introduction to ideas of non-commutative geometry and star products. We will discuss consequences for physics in two different settings: quantum field theories and astrophysics. In case of quantum field theory, we will…
These are the extended notes of a survey talk on noncommutative motives given at the 3era Escuela de Inverno Luis Santalo - CIMPA Research School: Topics in Noncommutative Geometry, Buenos Aires, July 26 to August 6, 2010.
This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate…
We propose and discuss how basic notions (quadratic modules, positive elements, semialgebraic sets, Archimedean orderings) and results (Positivstellensaetze) from real algebraic geometry can be generalized to noncommutative $*$-algebras. A…
A general question behind this paper is to explore a good notion for intrinsic curvature in the framework of noncommutative geometry started by Alain Connes in the 80s. It has only recently begun (2014) to be comprehended via the intensive…
A pedagogical and self-contained introduction to noncommutative quantum field theory is presented, with emphasis on those properties that are intimately tied to string theory and gravity. Topics covered include the Weyl-Wigner…
This is a survey of noncommutative generalizations of the spectrum of a ring, written for the Notices of the American Mathematical Society.
The basic framework for a systematic construction of a quantum theory of Riemannian geometry was introduced recently. The quantum versions of Riemannian structures --such as triad and area operators-- exhibit a non-commutativity. At first…
This talk is dedicated to various aspects of Mirror Symmetry. It summarizes some of the mathematical developments that took place since M. Kontsevich's report at the Z\"urich ICM and provides an extensive, although not exhaustive,…
A review of the applications of noncommutative geometry to a systematic formulation of duality symmetries in string theory is presented. The spectral triples associated with a lattice vertex operator algebra and the corresponding…
These lecture notes provide an informal introduction to the theory of nonnegative polynomials and sums of squares. We highlight the history and some recent developments, especially the new connections with classical (complex) algebraic…
Our aim in this review article is to present the applications of Connes' noncommutative geometry to elementary particle physics. Whereas the existing literature is mostly focused on a mathematical audience, in this article we introduce the…
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…
These are lecture notes for a 4h mini-course held in Toulouse, May 9-12th, at the thematic school on "Quantum topology and geometry". The goal of these lectures is to (a) explain some incarnations, in the last ten years, of the idea of…
The role of the gauge invariance in noncommutative field theory is discussed. A basic introduction to noncommutative geometry and noncommutative field theory is given. Background invariant formulation of Wilson lines is proposed. Duality…
