Spectral triples on irreversible C∗-dynamical systems

Given a spectral triple on a [Formula: see text]-algebra [Formula: see text] together with a unital injective endomorphism [Formula: see text], the problem of defining a suitable crossed product [Formula: see text]-algebra endowed with a spectral triple is addressed. The proposed construction is mainly based on the works of Cuntz and [A. Hawkins, A. Skalski, S. White and J. Zacharias, On spectral triples on crossed products arising from equicontinuous actions, Math. Scand. 113(2) (2013) 262–291], and on our previous papers [V. Aiello, D. Guido and T. Isola, Spectral triples for noncommutative solenoidal spaces from self-coverings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 448(2) (2017) 1378–1412; V. Aiello, D. Guido and T. Isola, A spectral triple for a solenoid based on the Sierpinski gasket, SIGMA Symmetry Integrability Geom. Methods Appl. 17(20) (2021) 21]. The embedding of [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] can be considered as the dual form of a covering projection between noncommutative spaces. A main assumption is the expansiveness of the endomorphism, which takes the form of the local isometricity of the covering projection, and is expressed via the compatibility of the Lip-norms on [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

Modulation spaces as a smooth structure in noncommutative geometry

We demonstrate how to construct spectral triples for twisted group $$C^*$$ C ∗ -algebras of lattices in phase space of a second-countable locally compact abelian group using a class of weights appearing in time–frequency analysis. This yields a way of constructing quantum $$C^k$$ C k -structures on Heisenberg modules, and we show how to obtain such structures using Gabor analysis and certain weighted analogues of Feichtinger’s algebra. We treat the standard spectral triple for noncommutative 2-tori as a special case, and as another example we define a spectral triple on noncommutative solenoids and a quantum $$C^k$$ C k -structure on the associated Heisenberg modules.

Real Part of Twisted-by-Grading Spectral Triples

After a brief review on the applications of twisted spectral triples to physics, we adapt to the twisted case the notion of real part of a spectral triple. In particular, when one twists a usual spectral triple by its grading, we show that - depending on the KO dimension - the real part is either twisted as well, or is the intersection of the initial algebra with its opposite. We illustrate this result with the spectral triple of the standard model.

Spectral triples for higher-rank graph $C^*$-algebras

In this note, we present a new way to associate a spectral triple to the noncommutative $C^*$-algebra $C^*(\Lambda )$ of a strongly connected finite higher-rank graph Λ. Our spectral triple builds on an approach used by Consani and Marcolli to construct spectral triples for Cuntz-Krieger algebras. We prove that our spectral triples are intimately connected to the wavelet decomposition of the infinite path space of Λ which was introduced by Farsi, Gillaspy, Kang, and Packer in 2015. In particular, we prove that the wavelet decomposition of Farsi et al. describes the eigenspaces of the Dirac operator of our spectral triple. The paper concludes by discussing other properties of the spectral triple, namely, θ-summability and Brownian motion.
