Noncommutative geometry and twisted conformal symmetry

Twisted Conformal Symmetry in Noncommutative Two-Dimensional Quantum Field Theory

Conformal Structures in Noncommutative Geometry

It is well-known that a compact Riemannian spin manifold (M, g) can be reconstructed from its canonical spectral triple (C∞(M), L2(M,ΣM),D) where ΣM denotes the spinor bundle and D the Dirac operator. We show that g can be reconstructed up to conformal equivalence from (C∞(M), L2(M,ΣM), sign(D)).

Mm Obius Transformations in Noncommutative Conformal Geometry

We study the projective linear group PGL 2 (A) associated with an arbitrary algebra A and its subgroups from the point of view of their action on the space of involutions in A. This action formally resembles M obius transformations known from complex geometry. By specifying A to be an algebra of bounded operators in a Hilbert space H, we rediscover the Mobius group ev (M) de ned by Connes and...

Möbius Transformations in Noncommutative Conformal Geometry

We study the projective linear group PGL2(A) associated with an arbitrary algebra A, and its subgroups from the point of view of their action on the space of involutions in A. This action formally resembles Möbius transformations known from complex geometry. By specifying A to be an algebra of bounded operators in a Hilbert space H, we rediscover the Möbius group μev(M) defined by Connes and st...

D-branes, Cyclic Symmetry and Noncommutative Geometry

We investigate the open string modes, describing the world-volume of a D p-brane, for its cyclic symmetry in presence of a magnetic field. It is argued that the constant coordinate modes receive non-perturbative correction. We show that they introduce the notion of noncommutativity on the D p-brane world-volume and make it UV-renormalizable. An analogy between cyclic symmetry (α-corrections) an...
