This project is at the leading edge of fundamental mathematics and will result in important scientific advances. As a result Australian science will be seen to be at the forefront internationally. This area of mathematics is having a high impact at the moment so that research training is an important aspect. There will be PhD students trained as part of the project and honours students exposed to the latest advances. Australians would normally need to go to leading international centres such as Paris to partake in projects of this nature. That high profile research of this kind can be done in Australia will enhance our capacity to retain scientific talent.Read moreRead less
Noncommutative geometry and applications. Noncommutative geometry is a new field of mathematical research having its origins in quantum mechanics. The main feature of this theory is that it deals with geoemtric and topological aspects of objects for which the order in which we make measurements or perform operations or observations is relevant to the outcome. This happens with microscopic systems especially those at the atomic or subatomic length scale. The methods have been motivated by and fou ....Noncommutative geometry and applications. Noncommutative geometry is a new field of mathematical research having its origins in quantum mechanics. The main feature of this theory is that it deals with geoemtric and topological aspects of objects for which the order in which we make measurements or perform operations or observations is relevant to the outcome. This happens with microscopic systems especially those at the atomic or subatomic length scale. The methods have been motivated by and found application in condensed matter physics, string theory, random media, algebraic structures and the geometry and topology of manifoldsRead moreRead less
