Thematic Program on
Noncommutative Geometry and Quantum Groups
International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA), Trieste, Italy
June 20-30, 2006
supported by the Central European Initiative and by PRIN "Sintesi'04"
Topics:
the relation between noncommutative manifolds and quantum groups,
with emphasis on the construction of principal and associated bundles
with connections (gauge fields) and of spectral triples
(in particular the Dirac operators) on quantum groups and their
homogeneous spaces, and applications in mathematical physics.
