A combinatorial Fredholm module on self-similar sets built on nn-cubes

We construct a Fredholm module on self-similar sets such as the Cantor dust, the Sierpinski carpet and the Menger sponge. Our construction is a higher dimensional analogue of Connes' combinatorial construction of the Fredholm module on the Cantor set. We also calculate the Dixmier trace of two operators induced by the Fredholm module.Comment: 24 page

A combinatorial integration on the Cantor dust

In this paper, we generalize the Cantor function to 2-dimensional cubes and construct a cyclic 2-cocycle on the Cantor dust. This cocycle is non-trivial on the pullback of the smooth functions on the 2-dimensional torus with the generalized Cantor function while it vanishes on the Lipschitz functions on the Cantor dust. The cocycle is calculated through the integration of 2-forms on the torus by using a combinatorial Fredholm module

In this paper, we generalize the Cantor function to $2$-dimensional cubes and construct a cyclic $2$-cocycle on the Cantor dust. This cocycle is non-trivial on the pullback of the smooth functions on the $2$-dimensional torus with the generalized Cantor function while it vanishes on the Lipschitz functions on the Cantor dust. The cocycle is calculated through the integration of $2$-forms on the torus by using a combinatorial Fredholm module.Comment: 8 page
