Description

We develop the noncommutative geometry (bundles, connections etc.) associated to algebras that factorise into two subalgebras. An example is the factorisation of matrices M2(C)=CZ2. bbfCZ2. We also further extend the coalgebra version of theory introduced previously, to include frame resolutions and corresponding covariant derivatives and torsions. As an example, we construct q-monopoles on all the Podles quantum spheres Sq,s2. (orig.)
