Given a tame differential calculus over a noncommutative algebra $\mathcal{A}$ and an $\mathcal{A}$-bilinear pseudo-Riemannian metric $g_0,$ consider the conformal deformation $ g = k. g_0, $ $k$ being an invertible element of…

We prove the existence and uniqueness of Levi-Civita connections for strongly sigma-compatible pseudo-Riemannian metrics on tame differential calculi. Such pseudo-Riemannian metrics properly contain the classes of bilinear metrics as well…

A differential calculus on Cuntz algebra with three generators coming from the action of rotation group in three dimensions is introduced. The differential calculus is shown to satisfy Assumptions I-IV of [1] so that Levi-Civita Connection…

We make some observations about Rosenberg's Levi-Civita connections on noncommutative tori, noting the non-uniqueness of torsion-free metric-compatible connections without prescribed connection operator for the inner *-derivations, the…

We show how to define Riemannian metrics and connections on a noncommutative torus in such a way that an analogue of Levi-Civita's theorem on the existence and uniqueness of a Riemannian connection holds. The major novelty is that we need…

We study covariant derivatives on a class of centered bimodules $\mathcal{E}$ over an algebra A. We begin by identifying a $\mathbb{Z} ( A ) $-submodule $ \mathcal{X} ( A ) $ which can be viewed as the analogue of vector fields in this…

A generalized notion of a Lie algebroid is presented. Using this, the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle is obtained. A new point of view over (linear) connections theory on a fiber bundle is presented. These connections are…

Given a bicovariant differential calculus $(\mathcal{E}, d)$ such that the braiding map is diagonalisable in a certain sense, the bimodule of two-tensors admits a direct sum decomposition into symmetric and anti-symmetric tensors. This is…

Employing a class of generalized connections, we describe certain differential complices $\left(\tilde \Omega^*_{\mathbb{T}}(M), \tilde{\mathbb{d}}^{\mathbb{T}}\right)$ constructed from $\wedge^* \mathbb{T} M$ and study some of their basic…

Two toy models are considered within the framework of noncommutative differential geometry. In the first one, the Einstein action of the Levi-Civita connection is computed for the algebra of matrix valued functions on a torus. It is shown…

We show that the bicovariant first order differential calculi on a factorisable semisimple quantum group are in 1-1 correspondence with irreducible representations $V$ of the quantum group enveloping algebra. The corresponding calculus is…

We give a short proof of the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a real oriented Riemannian vector bundle $E$ of even rank over a closed compact orientable manifold $M$. This theorem reduces to the classical Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem in the special…

The vector algebra and calculus are frequently used in many branches of Physics, for example, classical mechanics, electromagnetic theory, Astrophysics, Spectroscopy, etc. Important vector identities with the help of Levi-Civita symbols and…

We prove that the strange duality conjecture of Beauville-Donagi-Tu holds for all curves. We establish first a more extended rank-level duality, interesting in its own right, from which the standard rank-level duality follows by…

We compare actions on C*-algebras of two constructions of locally compact quantum groups, the bicrossed product and the double crossed product. We give a duality between them as a generalization of Baaj-Skandalis duality. In the case of…

We prove that the $4D_\pm$ calculi on the quantum group $SU_q(2)$ satisfy a metric-independent sufficient condition for the existence of a unique bicovariant Levi-Civita connection corresponding to every bi-invariant pseudo-Riemannian…

For a simple real Jordan algebra $V,$ a family of bi-differential operators from $\mathcal{C}^\infty(V\times V)$ to $\mathcal{C}^\infty(V)$ is constructed. These operators are covariant under the rational action of the conformal group of…

In the language of $L^\infty$-modules proposed by Gigli, we introduce a first order calculus on a topological Lusin measure space $(M,\mathfrak{m})$ carrying a quasi-regular, strongly local Dirichlet form $\mathscr{E}$. Furthermore, we…

C*-algebras form a 2-category with \Star{}homomorphisms or correspondences as morphisms and unitary intertwiners as 2-morphisms. We use this structure to define weak actions of 2-categories, weakly equivariant maps between weak actions, and…

Generalizing work by Pinzari and Roberts, we characterize actions of a compact quantum group G on C*-algebras in terms of what we call weak unitary tensor functors from Rep G into categories of C*-correspondences. We discuss the relation of…
