Abstract
This paper is a follow-up on the Noncommutative Differential Geometry on Infinitesimal Spaces [16]. In the present work, we extend the algebraic convergence established in [16] to the Riemannian geometric setting. On the one hand, we reformulate the definition of finite dimensional compatible Dirac operators using Clifford algebras. This definition also leads to a new construction of a Laplace operator. On the other hand, after choosing a family of Green functions to define the coefficients of the Dirac matrices, we show that these matrices can be interpreted as stochastic matrices. The sequence of operators \((D_n)_{n\in \mathbb {N}}\) converges then in average to the local expression of the classical Dirac operator on an oriented compact Riemann manifold. The same result is drawn for the Laplace operator.
期刊介绍:
The goal of the Annales mathématiques du Québec (formerly: Annales des sciences mathématiques du Québec) is to be a high level journal publishing articles in all areas of pure mathematics, and sometimes in related fields such as applied mathematics, mathematical physics and computer science.
Papers written in French or English may be submitted to one of the editors, and each published paper will appear with a short abstract in both languages.
History:
The journal was founded in 1977 as „Annales des sciences mathématiques du Québec”, in 2013 it became a Springer journal under the name of “Annales mathématiques du Québec”. From 1977 to 2018, the editors-in-chief have respectively been S. Dubuc, R. Cléroux, G. Labelle, I. Assem, C. Levesque, D. Jakobson, O. Cornea.
Les Annales mathématiques du Québec (anciennement, les Annales des sciences mathématiques du Québec) se veulent un journal de haut calibre publiant des travaux dans toutes les sphères des mathématiques pures, et parfois dans des domaines connexes tels les mathématiques appliquées, la physique mathématique et l''informatique.
On peut soumettre ses articles en français ou en anglais à l''éditeur de son choix, et les articles acceptés seront publiés avec un résumé court dans les deux langues.
