Noncommutative localization in noncommutative geometry

The aim of these notes is to collect and motivate the basic localization toolbox for the geometric study of ``spaces'', locally described by noncommutative rings and their categories of one-sided modules. We present the basics of Ore localization of rings and modules in much detail. Common practical techniques are studied as well. We also describe a counterexample for a folklore test principle. Localization in negatively filtered rings arising in deformation theory is presented. A new notion of the differential Ore condition is introduced in the study of localization of differential calculi. To aid the geometrical viewpoint, localization is studied with emphasis on descent formalism, flatness, abelian categories of quasicoherent sheaves and generalizations, and natural pairs of adjoint functors for sheaf and module categories. The key motivational theorems from the seminal works of Gabriel on localization, abelian categories and schemes are quoted without proof, as well as the related statements of Popescu, Watts, Deligne and Rosenberg. The Cohn universal localization does not have good flatness properties, but it is determined by the localization map already at the ring level. Cohn localization is here related to the quasideterminants of Gelfand and Retakh; and this may help understanding both subjects.Comment: 93 pages; (including index: use makeindex); introductory survey, but with few smaller new result

Deformed Covariant Quantum Phase Spaces as Hopf Algebroids

We consider the general D=4 (10+10)-dimensional kappa-deformed quantum phase space as given by Heisenberg double \mathcal{H} of D=4 kappa-deformed Poincare-Hopf algebra H. The standard (4+4) -dimensional kappa - deformed covariant quantum phase space spanned by kappa - deformed Minkowski coordinates and commuting momenta generators ({x}_{\mu },{p}_{\mu }) is obtained as the subalgebra of \mathcal{H}. We study further the property that Heisenberg double defines particular quantum spaces with Hopf algebroid structure. We calculate by using purely algebraic methods the explicite Hopf algebroid structure of standard kappa - deformed quantum covariant phase space in Majid-Ruegg bicrossproduct basis. The coproducts for Hopf algebroids are not unique, determined modulo the coproduct gauge freedom. Finally we consider the interpretation of the algebraic description of quantum phase spaces as Hopf algebroids.Comment: 14 pages,v4; this version appeared in Physics Letters

Generalizations of Poisson structures related to rational Gaudin model

The Poisson structure arising in the Hamiltonian approach to the rational Gaudin model looks very similar to the so-called modified Reflection Equation Algebra. Motivated by this analogy, we realize a braiding of the mentioned Poisson structure, i.e. we introduce a "braided Poisson" algebra associated with an involutive solution to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. Also, we exhibit another generalization of the Gaudin type Poisson structure by replacing the first derivative in the current parameter, entering the so-called local form of this structure, by a higher order derivative. Finally, we introduce a structure, which combines both generalizations. Some commutative families in the corresponding braided Poisson algebra are found.Comment: LATEX, 16 p

Symmetric ordering and Weyl realizations for quantum Minkowski spaces

Symmetric ordering and Weyl realizations for non commutative quantum Minkowski spaces are reviewed. Weyl realizations of Lie deformed spaces and corresponding star products, as well as twist corresponding to Weyl realization and coproduct of momenta are presented. Drinfeld twists understood in Hopf algebroid sense are also discussed. A few examples of corresponding Weyl realizations are given. We show that for the original Snyder space there exists symmetric ordering, but no Weyl realization. Quadratic deformations of Minkowski space are considered and it is demonstrated that symmetric ordering is deformed and a generalized Weyl realization can be defined.Comment: 27 page
