Non-Commutative Spacetime
blue bullet Description and properties of non-commutative spacetime; see also non-commutative gravity.
 

In General > s.a. non-commutative geometry [categorical approach]; quantum geometry; quantum spacetime; Spectral Triple.
* Rem: The spectral triple can be generalized; One replaces Hilbert spaces with Krein spaces, and Dirac operators are Krein-selfadjoint.
