Spectral triples and differential calculi related to the Kronecker foliation (Q1871568)

Using ideas of Connes and Moscovici the authors describe two spectral triples related to the Kronecker foliation, whose generalized Dirac operators are related to first and second order signature operators. They also consider the corresponding differential calculi \(\Omega_D\), which are drastically different in the two cases. They calculate the Chern character of the spectral triple and the Dixmier trace of certain powers of its Dirac operator for the second order signature operator.
