Anti-selfdual connections on the quantum projective plane: monopoles (Q982475): Difference between revisions

From the abstract: ``We present several results on the geometry of the quantum projective plane. They include: explicit generators for the K-theory and the K-homology; a real calculus with a Hodge star operator; anti-selfdual connections on line bundles with explicit computation of the corresponding `classical' characteristic classes (via Fredholm modules); complete diagonalization of gauged Laplacians on these line-bundles; `quantum' characteristic classes via equivariant K-theory and \(q\)-indices.'' The monopoles addressed in the title are line bundles (or, more precisely, finitely generated projective modules) of rank 1 over the quantum projective plane endowed with a connection having anti-selfdual curvature. To define this notion a differential \(*\)-calculus (with Hodge operator) is developed in detail in the article. One of the results shown is that, if the deformation parameter \(q\) for the quantum plane is transcendental, its equivariant \(K_0\)-group has (at least) a countable number of independent generators.
