Theta Functions on Noncommutative Tori

Ordinary theta functions can be considered as holomorphic sections of line bundles over tori. We show that one can define generalized theta functions as holomorphic elements of projective modules over noncommutative tori (theta vectors). The theory of these new objects is not only more general, but also much simpler than the theory of ordinary theta-functions. It seems that the theory of theta vectors should be closely related to Manin's theory of quantized theta functions, but we don't analyze this relation.     

Hopf Modules and Noncommutative Differential Geometry

We define a new algebra of noncommutative differential forms for any Hopf algebra with an invertible antipode. We prove that there is a one-to-one correspondence between anti-Yetter–Drinfeld modules, which serve as coefficients for the Hopf cyclic (co)homology, and modules which admit a flat connection with respect to our differential calculus. Thus, we show that these coefficient modules can be regarded as “flat bundles” in the sense of Connes’ noncommutative differential geometry.     

Noncommutative Supergeometry and Duality

We introduce a notion of Q-algebra that can be considered as a generalization of the notion of Q-manifold (a supermanifold equipped with an odd vector field obeying {Q,Q} =0). We develop the theory of connections on modules over Q-algebras and prove a general duality theorem for gauge theories on such modules. This theorem contains as a simplest case SO(d,d, Z)-duality of gauge theories on noncommutative tori.     

Quantum Field Theory with a Minimal Length Induced from Noncommutative Space

From the inspection of noncommutative quantum mechanics, we obtain an approximate equivalent relation for the energy dependence of the Planck constant in the noncommutative space, which means a minimal length of the space. We find that this relation is reasonable and it can inherit the main properties of the noncommutative space. Based on this relation, we derive the modified Klein-Gordon equation and Dirac equation. We investigate the scalar field and φ4 model and then quantum electrodynamics in our theory, and derive the corresponding Feynman rules. These results may be considered as reasonable approximations to those of noncommutative quantum field theory. Our theory also shows a connection between the space with a minimal length and the noncommutative space.     

Noncommutative geometry and fundamental interactions: the first ten years

This is the full text of a survey talk for nonspecialists, delivered at the 66th Annual Meeting of the German Physical Society in Leipzig, March 2002. We have not taken pains to suppress the colloquial style. References are given only insofar as they help to underline the points made; this is not a full‐blooded survey. The connection between noncommutative field theory and string theory is mentioned, but deemphasized. Contributions to noncommutative geometry made in Germany are emphasized.     

Effective Action for Noncommutative U(1) Gauge Theory with Higher Dimensional Terms

In this paper we apply the assumption of our recent work in noncommutative scalar models to the noncommutative U(1) gauge theories. This assumption is that the noncommutative effects start to be visible continuously from a scale λ_NC and that below this scale the theory is a commutative one. Based on thisassumption and using background field method and loop calculations, an effective action is derived for noncommutative U(1) gauge theory. It will be shown that the corresponding low energy effective theory is asymptotically free and that under this condition the noncommutative quadratic IR divergences will not appear. The effective theory contains higher dimensional terms, which become more important at high energies. These terms predict an elastic photon-photon scattering due to the noncommutativity of space. Thecoefficients of these higher dimensional terms also satisfy a positivity constraint indicating that in this theory the related diseases of superluminal signal propagating and bad analytic properties of S-matrix do not exist. In the last section, we will apply our method to the noncommutative extra dimension theories.     

Instantons on General Noncommutative R4

We study the U(1) and U(2) instanton solutions of gauge theory on general noncommutative R4. In allcases considered we obtain explicit results for the projection operators. In some cases we computed numerically theinstanton charge and found that it is an integer independent of the noncommutative parameters θ1,2.     

Noncommutative space from dynamical noncommutative geometries

We present noncommutative topology as a basis for noncommutative geometry phrased completely in terms of partially ordered sets with operations. In this note we introduce a noncommutative space-time starting from a dynamical system of noncommutative topologies based on the notion of temporal points. At every moment a commutative topological space is constructed and it is shown to approximate the noncommutative space in sheaf theoretical terms; this so called moment space should be the space where observed phenomena should be described, the commutative shadow of the noncommutative space is to be thought of as the usual space-time.     

Bi-Hamiltonian structure of the extended noncommutative Toda hierarchy

The noncommutative Toda hierarchy is studied with the help of Moyal deformation by a reduction on the non-commutative two dimensional Toda hierarchy. Further we generalize the noncommutative Toda hierarchy to the extended noncommutative Toda hierarchy. To survey on its integrability, we construct the bi-Hamiltonian structure and noncommutative conserved densities of the extended noncommutative Toda hierarchy by means of the R-matrix formalism. This extended noncommutative Toda hierarchy can be reduced to the extended multicomponent Toda hierarchy, extended Z_N?-Toda hierarchy, extended Toda hierarchy respectively by reductions on Lie algebras.     

Singularities of noncompact charged objects

We formulate a model of noncompact spherical charged objects in the framework of noncommutative field theory. The Einstein-Maxwell field equations are solved with charged anisotropic fluid. We choose matter and charge densities as functions of two parameters instead of defining these quantities in terms of Gaussian distribution function. It is found that the corresponding densities and the Ricci scalar are singular at origin, whereas the metric is nonsingular, indicating a spacelike singularity. The numerical solution of the horizon equation implies that there are two or one or no horizon(s) depending on the mass. We also evaluate the Hawking temperature, and find that a black hole with two horizons is evaporated to an extremal black hole with one horizon.     

Finite-Dimensional Simple Leibniz Pairs and Simple Poisson Modules

Simple modules over the Leibniz pairs are studied. Simple Poisson modules over Poisson algebras of the semisimple associative algebra structure are determined and they are nothing but simple bimodules over simple associative algebras with standard noncommutative Poisson algebra structure.     

Instantons on General Noncommutative R^4＊

We study the U(1) and U(2) instanton solutions of gauge theory on general nonocmmutative R^4,In all cases considered we obtain explicit results for the projection operators.In some cases we computed numberically the instanton charge and found that it is an integer independent of the noncommutative parametersθ1,2.     

Quantum phase for an electric quadrupole moment in noncommutative quantum mechanics

We study the noncoInmutative nonrelativistic quantum dynamics of a neutral particle, which possesses an electric qaudrupole moment, in the presence of an external magnetic field. First, by intro ducing a shift for the magnetic field, we give the Schrodinger equations in the presence of an external magnetic field both on a noncommutative space and a noncomlnutative phase space, respectively. Then by solving the SchrSdinger equations both on a noneommutative space and a noncommutative phase space, we obtain quantum phases of the electric quadrupole moment, respectively. Wc demonstrate that these phases are geometric and dispersive.     

二重非交换时空与二重复对称引力理论

通过引入二重复对称度规张量，建立了一种二重复对称引力理论. 从一个二重实的作用量出发，导出了静态球对称二重复度规的具体表达式. 该理论扩展了Moffat结果，不仅自然地得到了双曲复对称引力理 论，而且把著名的Schwarzschild解作为特殊情况包含在其中，并且在线性化的弱场近似下自动摆脱了Moffat理论中存在的负 能鬼态问题. 进一步，通过将二重复坐标推广到满足二重非对易关系以及将Moyal星积二重 化，由此构造出二重非交换复对称引力场作用量. 关键词： 非交换几何 复对称度规 非对易坐标 引力场作用量     

String Geometry and the Noncommutative Torus

We construct a new gauge theory on a pair of d-dimensional noncommutative tori. The latter comes from an intimate relationship between the noncommutative geometry associated with a lattice vertex operator algebra ? and the noncommutative torus. We show that the tachyon algebra of ? is naturally isomorphic to a class of twisted modules representing quantum deformations of the algebra of functions on the torus. We construct the corresponding real spectral triples and determine their Morita equivalence classes using string duality arguments. These constructions yield simple proofs of the O(d,d;ℤ) Morita equivalences between d-dimensional noncommutative tori and give a natural physical interpretation of them in terms of the target space duality group of toroidally compactified string theory. We classify the automorphisms of the twisted modules and construct the most general gauge theory which is invariant under the automorphism group. We compute bosonic and fermionic actions associated with these gauge theories and show that they are explicitly duality-symmetric. The duality-invariant gauge theory is manifestly covariant but contains highly non-local interactions. We show that it also admits a new sort of particle-antiparticle duality which enables the construction of instanton field configurations in any dimension. The duality non-symmetric on-shell projection of the field theory is shown to coincide with the standard non-abelian Yang–Mills gauge theory minimally coupled to massive Dirac fermion fields.

On Spin Structures and Dirac Operators on the Noncommutative Torus

We find and classify possible equivariant spin structures with Dirac operators on the noncommutative torus, proving that, similarly as in the classical case, the spectrum of the Dirac operator depends on the spin structure.     

Noncommutative Quantum Hall Effect of Bilayer Systems

In this paper we study the bilayer quantum Hall (QH) effect on a noncommutative phase space (NCPS). By using perturbation theory, we calculate the energy spectrum, eigenfunction, Hall current, and Hall conductivity of the bilayer QH system, and express them in terms of noncommutative parameters θ and \bar{θ}, respectively. In our calculation, we assume that these parameters vary from layer to layer.     

Integrable Noncommutative Equations on Quad-graphs. The Consistency Approach

We extend integrable systems on quad-graphs, such as the Hirota equation and the cross-ratio equation, to the noncommutative context, when the fields take values in an arbitrary associative algebra. We demonstrate that the three-dimensional consistency property remains valid in this case. We derive the noncommutative zero curvature representations for these systems, based on the latter property. Quantum systems with their quantum zero curvature representations are particular cases of the general noncommutative ones.
