In the following paper we continue the work of Bimonte-Lizzi-Sparano on distances on a one dimensional lattice. We succeed in proving analytically the exact formulae for such distances. We find that the distance to an even point on the…

Differential structure of a d-dimensional lattice, which is essentially a noncommutative exterior algebra, is defined using reductions in first order and second order of universal differential calculus in the context of noncommutative…

Connes' distance formula is applied to endow linear metric to three 1D lattices of different topology, with a generalization of lattice Dirac operator written down by Dimakis et al to contain a non-unitary link-variable. Geometric…

One of the key ingredients of A. Connes' noncommutative geometry is a generalized Dirac operator which induces a metric(Connes' distance) on the state space. We generalize such a Dirac operator devised by A. Dimakis et al, whose Connes'…

Differential calculus on discrete sets is developed in the spirit of noncommutative geometry. Any differential algebra on a discrete set can be regarded as a `reduction' of the `universal differential algebra' and this allows a systematic…

In the continuum the definitions of the covariant Dirac operator and of the gauge covariant derivative operator are tightly intertwined. We point out that the naive discretization of the gauge covariant derivative operator is related to the…

We adapt a finite difference method of solution of the two-dimensional massless Dirac equation, developed in the context of lattice gauge theory, to the calculation of electrical conduction in a graphene sheet or on the surface of a…

If the structure of spacetime is discrete, then Lorentz symmetry should only be an approximation, valid at long length scales. At finite lattice spacings there will be small corrections to the Dirac evolution that could in principle be…

We discuss the steps to construct Dirac operators which have arbitrary fermion offsets, gauge paths, a general structure in Dirac space and satisfy the basic symmetries (gauge symmetry, hermiticity condition, charge conjugation, hypercubic…

We study the problem of calculating noncommutative distances on graphs, using techniques from linear algebra, specifically, Birkhoff-James orthogonality. A complete characterization of the solutions is obtained in the case when the…

Measuring distances on a lattice in noncommutative geometry involves square, symmetric and real ``three-diagonal'' matrices, with the sum of their elements obeying a supremum condition, together with a constraint forcing the absolute value…

We develope a difference calculus analogous to the differential geometry by translating the forms and exterior derivatives to similar expressions with difference operators, and apply the results to fields theory on the lattice [Ref. 1]. Our…

We give a geometrical derivation of the Dirac equation by considering a spin-1/2 particle travelling with the speed of light in a cubic spacetime lattice. The mass of the particle acts to flip the multi-component wavefunction at the lattice…

We discuss the quantum mechanics of a particle in a magnetic field when its position x^{\mu} is restricted to a periodic lattice, while its momentum p^{\mu} is restricted to a periodic dual lattice. Through these considerations we define…

In this paper, we use the language of noncommutative differential geometry to formalise discrete differential calculus. We begin with a brief review of inverse limit of posets as an approximation of topological spaces. We then show how to…

A discretisation scheme for differential geometry is applied to the problem of constructing lattice actions, the naive and staggered action are thus derived. It is found that after specifying an ansatz for the space of fields, the…

Noncommutativity between a differential form and a function allows us to define differential operator satisfying Leibniz's rule on a lattice. We propose a new associative Clifford product defined on the lattice by introducing the…

As a tool to carry out the quantization of gauge theory on a noncommutative space, we present a Dirac operator that behaves as a line element of the canonical noncommutative space. Utilizing this operator, we construct the Dixmier trace,…

Lattice discretizations of continuous manifolds are common tools used in a variety of physical contexts. Conventional discrete approximations, however, cannot capture all aspects of the original manifold, notably its topology. In this paper…

Based on a fairly precise approximation to the lattice discrepancy of a Lame disc, an asymptotic formula is established for the number of lattice points in a related three-dimensional body, linearly dilated by a large real parameter x.…
