Zusammenfassung:Noncommutative differential geometry is a novel approach to geometry, aimed in part at applications in physics. It was founded in the early eighties by the 1982 Fields Medalist Alain Connes on the basis of his fundamental works in operator algebras. It is now a very active branch of mathematics with actual and potential applications to a variety of domains in physics ranging from solid state to quantization of gravity. The strategy is to formulate usual differential geometry in a somewhat unusual manner, using in particular operator algebras and related concepts, so as to be able to plug in noncommutativity in a natural way. Algebraic tools such as K-theory and cyclic cohomology and homology play an important role in this field. It is an important topic both for mathematics and physics
Beschreibung:"This volume constitutes the proceedings of the workshop on Noncommutative Geometry and Physics 2008: "K-theory and D-branes" held at Shonan International village, Japan, during the week of February 18-22, 2008, and of the RIMS thematic year on "Perspectives in Deformation Quantization and Noncommutative Geometry" held through the year of 2010. The aim of these workshops was to enhance international cooperation between mathematicians and physicists on various aspects in this field."--Preface
