چکیده
Some derivation-based differential calculi which have been used to construct models of noncommutative gauge theories are presented and commented. Some comparisons between them are made. LPT-Orsay/08-85 à Michel, qui m'a donné le goût de la simplicité et de la rigueur.

Derivations of the Moyal Algebra and Noncommutative Gauge Theories
The differential calculus based on the derivations of an associative algebra underlies most of the noncommutative field theories considered so far. We review the essential properties of this framework and the main features of noncommutative connections in the case of non graded associative unital algebras with involution. We extend this framework to the case of Z2-graded unital involutive algeb...
متن کاملSubmanifolds and Quotient Manifolds in Noncommutative Geometry
We define and study noncommutative generalizations of submanifolds and quotient manifolds, for the derivation-based differential calculus introduced by M. Dubois-Violette and P. Michor. We give examples to illustrate these definitions. L.P.T.H.E.-ORSAY 95/53 Laboratoire associé au Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique URA D0063
متن کاملGauge theories in noncommutative geometry
In this review we present some of the fundamental mathematical structures which permit to define noncommutative gauge field theories. In particular, we emphasize the theory of noncommutative connections, with the notions of curvatures and gauge transformations. Two different approaches to noncommutative geometry are covered: the one based on derivations and the one based on spectral triples. Ex...
متن کاملNoncommutative Geometry and Gauge Theory on Discrete Groups
We build and investigate a pure gauge theory on arbitrary discrete groups. A systematic approach to the construction of the differential calculus is presented. We discuss the metric properties of the models and introduce the action functionals for unitary gauge theories. A detailed analysis of two simple models based on Z2 and Z3 follows. Finally we study the method of combining the discrete an...
متن کاملAspects of the q–deformed Fuzzy Sphere
These notes are a short review of the q–deformed fuzzy sphere S2 q,N , which is a “finite” noncommutative 2–sphere covariant under the quantum group Uq(su(2)). We discuss its real structure, differential calculus and integration for both real q and q a phase, and show how actions for Yang–Mills and Chern–Simons–like gauge theories arise naturally. It is related to D-branes on the SU(2)k WZW mod...
