Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The course will introduce the spectral triple description of geometry based on the Dirac operator. It is explained how it can be generalised to non-commutative geometry in a way that captures some of known structure of high-energy physics. The course will then outline an approach to quantum geometry that uses non-commutative spectral triples.

Assessment and permitted materials
