Noncommutative Geometry and Quantum Field Theory

Abstract

The workshop gathered experts from both mathemematics and physics working on the interrelation of Noncommutative Geometry and Quantum Field Theory, which has become one of the central topics in mathematical physics over the last decade. The talks mainly focused on the possible noncommuativity of spacetime, applications of the local index formula in quantum field theory and the significant recent progress concerning the construction of interacting quantum field theories over noncommutative spaces.
