Duality Symmetries and Noncommutative Geometry of String Spacetimes
We examine the structure of spacetime symmetries of toroidally compactified string theory within the framework of noncommutative geometry. Following a proposal of Fröhlich and Gawȩdzki, we describe the noncommutative string spacetime using a detailed algebraic construction of the vertex operator algebra. We show that the spacetime duality and discrete worldsheet symmetries of the string theory ...
متن کاملAspects of noncommutative Lorentzian geometry for globally hyperbolic spacetimes
Connes’ functional formula of the Riemannian distance is generalized to the Lorentzian case using the so-called Lorentzian distance, the d’Alembert operator and the causal functions of a globally hyperbolic spacetime. As a step of the presented machinery, a proof of the almosteverywhere smoothness of the Lorentzian distance considered as a function of one of the two arguments is given. Afterwar...
متن کاملWaves on Noncommutative Spacetimes
Waves on “commutative” spacetimes like Rd are elements of the commutative algebra C0(Rd) of functions on Rd. When C0(Rd) is deformed to a noncommutative algebra Aθ(R) with deformation parameter θ (A0(R) = C0(Rd)), waves being its elements, are no longer complex-valued functions on Rd. Rules for their interpretation, such as measurement of their intensity, and energy, thus need to be stated. We ...
متن کاملStrings, Fractal Membranes and Noncommutative Spacetimes Strings, Fractal Membranes and Noncommutative Spacetimes
In this book, the author proposes a new approach to understand and possibly solve the Riemann Hypothesis. His reformulation builds upon earlier (joint) work on complex fractal dimensions and the vibrations of fractal strings, combined with string theory and noncommutative geometry. Accordingly, it relies on the new notion of a fractal membrane or quantized fractal string, along with the modular...
متن کاملA C∗-algebra approach to noncommutative Lorentzian geometry of globally-hyperbolic spacetimes
The causal and metric structure of globally hyperbolic spacetimes is investigated from a C∗-algebra point of view related to part of Connes’ noncommutative geometry programme. No foliation of the spacetime by means of spacelike surfaces is employed, but the complete Lorentzian geometry is considered. Several results are produced. As a first result, Connes’ functional formula of the distance is ...
