On Type II noncommutative geometry and the JLO character

The Jaffe-Lesniewski-Osterwalder (JLO) character is a homomorphism from K-homology to entire cyclic cohomology. This paper extends the domain of the JLO character to include Type II noncommutative geometry, the geometry represented by unbounded $\theta$-summable Breuer-Fredholm modules; and shows that the JLO character coincides with the Chern-Connes character as a class in entire cyclic cohomolgoy.Comment: 31 pages, Latex2

Quantization of the G-Connections via the Tangent Groupoid

A description of the space of G-connections using the tangent groupoid is given. As the tangent groupoid parameter is away from zero, the G-connections act as convolution operators on a Hilbert space. The gauge action is examined in the tangent groupoid description of the G-connections. Tetrads are formulated as Dirac type operators. The connection variables and tetrad variables in Ashtekar's gravity are presented as operators on a Hilbert space
