The Chern-Simons Action in Non-Commutative Geometry | A. H. Chamseddine

3 Jun 1994 | Journal: | J.Math.Phys. 35 (1994) 5195-5218 | Subject: | High Energy Physics - Theory; Quantum Algebra | hep-th math.QA | Abstract: | A general definition of Chern-Simons actions in non-commutative geometry is proposed and illustrated in several examples. These are based on ``space-times’’ which are products of even-dimensional, Riemannian spin manifolds by a discrete (two-point) set. If the *algebras of operators describing the non-commutative spaces are generated by functions over such ``space-times’’ with values in certain Clifford algebras the Chern-Simons actions turn out to be the actions of topological gravity on the even-dimensional spin manifolds. By contrasting the space of field configurations in these examples in an appropriate manner one is able to extract dynamical actions from Chern-Simons actions. | Source: | arXiv, hep-th/9406013 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
