Funded Activity Summary

Noncommutative geometry in representation theory and quantum physics. One of the most important problems in natural science is to understand the structure of spacetime at the Planck scale. Mathematical investigations in recent years have predicted that at this scale, spacetime becomes noncommutative. Taking this noncommutativity into account, the project brings together geometry, algebra and quantum mechanics to develop new mathematical theories required for addressing the problem. It promises to make fundamental contributions to both mathematics and theoretical physics.
