It is an elementary and truly amazing fact of differential geometry of compact surfaces immersed into the three-dimensional euclidean space. The theorem says that the integral of the gaussian curvature (i.e., product of the maximal and minimal curvature of surface at a point) over all points of the surface is equal to \\(2\\pi\\) times an integer; the integer does not depend on the immersion, it is a topological invariant of the surface. Simply put, it does not matter how badly a tennis ball is squashed (as long as there are no wrinkles) -- the integral of its gaussian curvature is always \\(4\\pi\\)! There are numerous generalizations of this remarkable theorem; one of these is a spectral ``Gauss-Bonnet''. Recall that immersion of a surface into \\({\\mathbb R}^3\\) turns the surface into a Riemann surface \\(\\Sigma\\) (with a metric induced by the euclidean metric of \\({\\mathbb R}^3\\)). Let \\(\\Delta\\) be the Laplacian operator on \\(\\Sigma\\) and \\(\\lambda_j\\) its eigenvalues; consider the zeta function \\(\\zeta(s)=\\sum\\lambda_j^s\\), \\(\\mathrm{Re} (s)>0\\). The spectral Gauss-Bonnet theorem asserts that \\(\\zeta(0)={1\\over 6}\\chi(\\Sigma)\\), where \\(\\chi(\\Sigma)\\) is the Euler characteristic of \\(\\Sigma\\). The spectrum of linear self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space is a natural subject of noncommutative geometry; it is interesting, therefore, to have a ``noncommutative'' analog of the Gauss-Bonnet theorem. The paper under review solves the problem in the case \\(\\Sigma=T^2\\) is a two-torus; clearly, in this case \\(\\zeta(0)=0\\), since \\(\\chi(T^2)=0\\).NEWLINENEWLINEA legitimate replacement for \\(T^2\\) is the so-called noncommutative torus \\(T^2_{\\theta}\\), i.e., the \\(C^*\\)-algebra generated by the unitaries \\(U\\) and \\(V\\) satisfying the commutation relation \\(VU=e^{2\\pi i\\theta}UV\\), where \\(\\theta\\in {\\mathbb R}\\setminus {\\mathbb Q}\\). A conformal metric on \\(T^2_{\\theta}\\) can be defined by a pair of operators \\(\\partial=\\delta_1+i\\delta_2\\) and \\(\\partial^*=\\delta_1-i\\delta_2\\), where \\(\\delta_1\\) and \\(\\delta_2\\) are derivations on the algebra \\(T^2_{\\theta}\\) satisfying the equations \\(\\delta_1(U)=U\\), \\(\\delta_1(V)=0\\), \\(\\delta_2(U)=0\\) and \\(\\delta_2(V)=V\\). The Laplacian \\(\\Delta\\) on \\(T^2_{\\theta}\\) can be defined as \\(\\Delta=\\partial^*\\partial=\\delta_1^2+\\delta_2^2\\). An analog of the conformal class of a metric on \\(T^2_{\\theta}\\) is represented by a family of modular automorphisms \\(\\Delta_h=k\\Delta k\\), where \\(k=e^{h\\over 2}\\) and \\(h\\in T^2_{\\theta}\\). The main theorem of the paper states that if \\(\\theta\\) is an irrational number and \\(k\\) an invertible positive element of \\(T^2_{\\theta}\\), then the value of \\(\\zeta(0)\\) of the zeta function of the operator \\(k\\Delta k\\) does not depend on \\(k\\). The proof is based on a calculus of the pseudo-differential operators and explicit calculations (sometimes scarily long!)NEWLINENEWLINE The text is clearly written; a gentle introduction and lucid motivation are provided. It can easily be recommended to graduate students as an introduction to the ideas and methods of noncommutative geometry, which is co-written by the founder of the field.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1243.14002].","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2904908$0EF8F8EC-F025-49F8-B073-662EBF446328","rank":"normal"}],"P1447":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1447","hash":"bac5f12d39362f5e07b3c1033f1e06ebfbe65554","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":589936,"id":"Q589936"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2904908$3137970B-B708-409C-8323-E35C5E3C945A","rank":"normal"}],"P1643":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"a817da1f259dea8e6f2a89ac1fde36e601da72f6","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":446421,"id":"Q446421"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"96ba932c94b7fc65a1516b8eac9b80a497a35861","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.9073607325553894","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"a327a09ea0305e98d5cf33bd4036320e19f2aed0","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6821328,"id":"Q6821328"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q2904908$930E7CB2-640B-410E-A312-788E6ACD4399","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"cc7d10e7f68393df9470fe3046d3bef6d17a4ec9","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":887755,"id":"Q887755"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"3e5187f062f2b5254886da77ae496c983e8fd2bf","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.8999837636947632","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"a327a09ea0305e98d5cf33bd4036320e19f2aed0","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6821328,"id":"Q6821328"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q2904908$04315186-831D-48E6-962F-A0A98984C189","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"752600511b3cf9ee127de554a41cfb768e7b6991","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":5396248,"id":"Q5396248"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"ec2f550b12d313d036203d853dc36e189e6f4f32","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.8561388254165649","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"a327a09ea0305e98d5cf33bd4036320e19f2aed0","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6821328,"id":"Q6821328"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q2904908$C73AD775-D4B0-40D7-9F97-EBB98279D366","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"7ed261a75e78574a6c0f51c1ac496482bf1f40f4","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":478816,"id":"Q478816"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"68e33ece3e100bfd7eafe66d9c44a29ac928fe5e","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.8507714867591858","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"a327a09ea0305e98d5cf33bd4036320e19f2aed0","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6821328,"id":"Q6821328"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q2904908$0C9CBD43-AD8F-45CF-9D3C-1E288F37EC27","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1643","hash":"6b67eeaedcbd7e0188990d4c526ef32be2b2fd19","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":4033535,"id":"Q4033535"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","qualifiers":{"P1659":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1659","hash":"157fdab1d1cde1f1d7804c571054cb0fb86c9ebb","datavalue":{"value":{"amount":"+0.8141622543334961","unit":"1"},"type":"quantity"},"datatype":"quantity"}],"P1660":[{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1660","hash":"a327a09ea0305e98d5cf33bd4036320e19f2aed0","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":6821328,"id":"Q6821328"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"}]},"qualifiers-order":["P1659","P1660"],"id":"Q2904908$9B67B519-3D0C-4640-A089-06F4D75A467E","rank":"normal"}]},"sitelinks":{"mardi":{"site":"mardi","title":"Publication:2904908","badges":[],"url":"https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/wiki/Publication:2904908"}}}}}
