Abstract: We study perturbations of the flat geometry of the noncommutative two-dimensional torus T^2_ heta (with irrational heta). They are described by spectral triples (A_ heta, H, D), with the Dirac operator D, which is a differential operator with coefficients in the commutant of the (smooth) algebra A_ heta of T_ heta. We show, up to the second order in perturbation, that the zeta-function at 0 vanishes and so the Gauss-Bonnet theorem holds. We also calculate first two terms of the perturbative expansion of the corresponding local scalar curvature.
