Abstract: This paper defines and examines the basic properties of noncommutative analogues of almost complex structures, integrable almost complex structures, holomorphic curvature, cohomology, and holomorphic sheaves. The starting point is a differential structure on a noncommutative algebra defined in terms of a differential graded algebra. This is compared to current ideas on noncommutative algebraic geometry.

Review text

The non-commutative algebraic geometry has its roots in the seminal paper by \textit{J.-P. Serre} [Ann. Math. (2) 61, 197--278 (1955; Zbl 0067.16201)]; the main result says that the category of coherent sheaves over an algebraic variety is equivalent to such of the projective modules over its coordinate ring. The bottom line is that projective modules ``don't care whether the ring is commutative or not, thus in principle all algebraic geometry can be rephrased in terms of the non-commutative algebras. This observation would remain a mere curiosity if not an astounding example of the non-commutative coordinate rings of elliptic curve (the \textit{Sklyanin algebras}) was constructed by \textit{E. K. Sklyanin} [Funct. Anal. Appl. 16, 263--270 (1983); translation from Funkts. Anal. Prilozh. 16, No. 4, 27--34 (1982; Zbl 0513.58028)]. For a survey of this already formidable area of mathematics we refer the reader to \textit{J. T. Stafford} and \textit{M. Van den Bergh} [Bull. Am. Math. Soc., New Ser. 38, No. 2, 171--216 (2001; Zbl 1042.16016)] and \textit{A. V. Odesskij} [Russ. Math. Surv. 57, No. 6, 1127--1162 (2002); translation from Usp. Mat. Nauk 57, No. 6, 87--122 (2002; Zbl 1062.16035)].NEWLINENEWLINEThe paper under review uses the Chow Embedding Theorem linking the algebraic geometry with compact complex manifolds to recast the latter in terms of non-commutative algebras; the study is focused on the non-commutative analogues of almost complex structures, holomorphic curvature, cohomology and holomorphic sheaves. The paper is clearly written and well explained; it is highly recommended to the graduate students as well as experts in the field of noncommutative geometry.
