Geometric ModelingGeometric modeling is a branch of mathematics that deals with the representation of objects in space. It is a fundamental tool in computer graphics, computer-aided design (CAD), and other applications that require the creation of 3D models. Geometric modeling involves the use of mathematical equations and algorithms to create and manipulate objects in space. In this essay, we will explore the different aspects of geometric modeling, including its history, applications, and challenges.The history of geometric modeling can be traced back to the early 19th century when mathematicians began to study the properties of curves and surfaces. In the early 20th century, the development of calculus and differential geometry led to the creation of new methods for representing complex objects in space. The introduction of computers in the mid-20th century revolutionized the field of geometric modeling, making it possible to create and manipulate 3D models with greater precision and ease.Today, geometric modeling is used in a wide range of applications, including computer graphics, animation, video games, virtual reality, and CAD. In computer graphics and animation, geometric modeling is used to create realistic 3D models of objects, characters, and environments. In video games, geometric modeling is used to create the game world and characters. In virtual reality, geometric modeling is used to create immersive environments that simulate real-world experiences. In CAD, geometric modeling is used to create precise 3D models of mechanical parts and assemblies.One of the biggest challenges in geometric modeling is the representation of complex shapes and surfaces. Many real-world objects, such as cars, airplanes, and human bodies, have complex shapes that are difficult to represent using simple geometric primitives such as spheres, cylinders, and cones. To overcome this challenge, researchers have developed advanced techniques such as NURBS (non-uniform rational B-splines), which allow for the creation of complex curves and surfaces by combining simple geometric primitives.Another challenge in geometric modeling is the optimization of models for efficient rendering and simulation. As the complexity of models increases, so doesthe computational cost of rendering and simulating them. To address this challenge, researchers have developed techniques such as level-of-detail (LOD) modeling,which involves creating multiple versions of a model at different levels of detail to optimize rendering and simulation performance.In conclusion, geometric modeling is a fundamental tool in computer graphics, animation, video games, virtual reality, and CAD. Its history can be traced backto the early 19th century, and its development has been closely tied to the advancement of mathematics and computer technology. Despite its many applications and successes, geometric modeling still faces challenges in the representation of complex shapes and surfaces, as well as the optimization of models for efficient rendering and simulation. As technology continues to advance, it is likely that new techniques and approaches will emerge to overcome these challenges and pushthe field of geometric modeling forward.。

Another example of importance for physics is the truncated icosahedron which models the C60 Fullerene[18].Physical models on group lattices have also been considered in Refs.[19–22], in particular.Furthermore,Cayley graphs play a role in the study of connectivity and routing problems in communication networks(see Ref.[23]for a review).The above-mentioned correspondence between digraphs andfirst order differential cal-culi suggests to explore those calculi which correspond to Cayley graphs.Moreover,given a first order differential calculus which corresponds to a Cayley graph,it naturally extends to higher orders so that we have a notion of r-forms,r>1.This provides the basis for intro-ducing further differential geometric structures,following general recipes of noncommutative geometry.In section2we introducefirst order differential calculi associated with group lattices. Our approach very much parallels standard constructions in ordinary differential geometry. In particular,wefirst introduce vectorfields on a group lattice and then1-forms as duals of these.Section3concerns maps between group lattices which are“differentiable”in an algebraic sense[4].Of special importance for us are“bicovariant”group lattices(G,S) with the property that the left and right actions on G with respect to all elements of S is differentiable.Afirst order differential calculus naturally extends to higher orders,i.e.to a full differen-tial calculus.The structure of differential calculi obtained from group lattices is the subject of section4.Geometric relations are often more conveniently expressed in terms of vectorfields than forms.In section5we introduce a special class of vectorfields which we call“discrete”and a subclass of“basic”vectorfields and explore their properties.A Lie derivative with respect to a discrete vectorfield and an inner product of discrete vectorfields and forms is defined. For basic vectorfields with differentiableflow the Lie-Cartan formula holds.Section6treats connections on(left or right)A-modules over differential calculi associ-ated with group lattices.In particular,Yang-Millsfields are considered and an analogue of the lattice gauge theory action on an arbitrary group lattice is constructed.If the module is the space of1-forms,we are dealing with linear connections.This is thesubject of section7.In particular,wefind that the condition of vanishing torsion of a linear connection has a simple geometric meaning.A differential calculus on a group lattice induces a“generalized differential calculus”on a coset space.The resulting differential calculus is generalized in the sense that the space of1-forms is,in general,larger than the A-bimodule generated by the image of the space of functions under the action of the exterior derivative.There is a generalized digraph (“Schreier diagram”[16])associated with such afirst order differential calculus which in general has multiple links and also loops.Some further remarks are collected in section9. 2First order differential calculus associated with a group latticeLet G be a discrete group and A the algebra of complex-valued functions f:G→C.[24] With g∈G we associate e g∈A such that e g(g′)=δg,g′for all g′∈G.The set of e g, g∈G,forms a linear basis of A over C,since every function f can be written in the form f= g∈G f(g)e g.In particular,we have e g e g′=δg,g′e g and g∈G e g=1,where1denotes the constant function which is the unit of A.The left and right translations by a group element g,L g(g′)=gg′and R g(g′)=g′g, induce automorphisms of A via the pull-backs(L∗g f)(g′)=f(L g g′)=f(gg′)and(R∗g f)(g′)= f(R g g′)=f(g′g).In particular,we obtainL∗g e g′=e g−1g′,R∗g e g′=e g′g−1(2.1) for all g,g′∈G.Introducing[25]ℓg f=R∗g f−f(2.2) so that(ℓg f)(g′)=f(g′g)−f(g′),wefind the modified Leibniz ruleℓg(ff′)=(ℓg f)(R∗g f′)+f(ℓg f′).(2.3) The mapsℓg:A→A,g∈G,generate an A-bimodule via(f·ℓg)f′:=fℓg f′,(ℓg·f)f′:=(ℓg f′)(R∗g f)(2.4) so thatℓg·f=(R∗g f)·ℓg.(2.5) Indeed,one easily verifies that(ff′)·ℓg=f·(f′·ℓg),ℓg·(ff′)=(ℓg·f)·f′.(2.6) The modified Leibniz rule can now be written asℓg(ff′)=(ℓg·f′)f+(f·ℓg)f′.(2.7)Let S be afinite subset of G which does not contain the unit of G.From G and S we construct a directed graph as follows.The vertices of the digraph represent the elements of G and there is an arrow from the site(vertex)representing g to the one representing gh if and only if h∈S.In other words,there is an arrow from g to g′iffg−1g′∈S.A digraph obtained in this way is called a Cayley graph or a group lattice.[26]Lemma2.1The connected component of the unit e in the group lattice is the subgroup of G generated by S.Proof:Let H be the subgroup of G generated by S.Every element g∈H can be written as afinite product g=h k11···h k r r with h i∈S and k i∈{±1}.If k r=1,there is an arrowfrom h k11···h k r−1r−1to g.If k r=−1,there is an arrow from g to h k11···h k r−1r−1.By iteration,g is connected to e.Hence H is contained in the connected component C e of e.Because of the group property,every element connected to an element of H must itself be an element of H.Hence C e=H.It follows that the group lattice(G,S)is connected if and only if S generates G(see also Ref.[27],p.17).If the subgroup H generated by S is smaller than G,the group lattice consists of a set of disjoint but isomorphic parts corresponding to the set of left cosets gH, g∈G.For h∈S,the mapsℓh:A→A are naturally associated with the arrows of the digraph since(ℓh f)(g)=f(gh)−f(g)is the difference of the values of a function f at two connected “neighboring”points of the digraph.The mapsℓh generate an A-bimodule X.[28]At each g∈G,they span a linear space which we call the tangent space at g.LetΩ1be the A-bimodule dual to X such thatf·X,α = X,fα =f X,α , X·f,α = X,αf (2.8) for all X∈X,f∈A andα∈Ω1.If{θh|h∈S}denotes the set of elements ofΩ1dual to {ℓh|h∈S},so that ℓh′,θh =δh h′,thenℓh′,θh f = ℓh′·f,θh = (R∗h′f)·ℓh′,θh =R∗h′fδh h′= ℓh′,(R∗h f)θh (2.9) for all h,h′∈S.Henceθh f=R∗h fθh.(2.10) The space of1-formsΩ1is a free A-bimodule and{θh|h∈S}is a basis.A linear map d:A→Ω1can now be introduced byd f= h∈S(ℓh f)θh.(2.11) It satisfies the Leibniz rule d(ff′)=(d f)f′+f(d f′).In particular,we obtaind e g= h∈S(ℓh e g)θh= h∈S(e gh−1−e g)θh.(2.12)Now we multiply both sides from the left by e gh−1with somefixed h∈S.Since h is differentfrom the unit element of G,we obtain e gh−1d e g=e gh−1θh.From this wefind[29]θh= g∈G e gh−1d e g= g∈G e g d e gh.(2.13) Furthermore,θ:= h∈Sθh= g∈G,h∈S e g d e gh(2.14) satisfiesd f=θf−fθ=[θ,f].(2.15) Moreover,we obtainX,d f =Xf.(2.16) Let us introduceI={(g,g′)∈G×G|g−1g′∈S e}(2.17) where S e=S∪{e}.This is the set of pairs(g,g′)for which e g d e g′=0.Note that e g d e g=−e gθ=0.Thefirst order differential calculus(A,Ω1,d)constructed above is also obtained from the universalfirst order differential calculus(A,Ω1u,d u)as the quotientΩ1=Ω1u/J1with respect to the submodule J1ofΩ1u generated by all elements of the form e g d u e g′with(g,g′)∈I. Ifπu:Ω1u→Ω1denotes the corresponding projection,then we have d=πu d u.Lemma2.2If S e is a subgroup of G,the correspondingfirst order differential calculus on the component connected to the unit is the universal one.Proof:According to Lemma2.1,the e-component is S e.Since for every pair(h,h′)∈S e×S e, h=h′,there is an element h′′∈S such that h=h′h′′,there is an arrow from h′to h in the associated digraph.Hence all pairs of different elements of S e are connected by a pair of antiparallel arrows.This characterizes the universal differential calculus. Example2.1.One of the simplest examples is obtained as follows.Let G=Z,the additivegroup of integers,and S={1}.Then we have(ℓ1f)(k)=f(k+1)−f(k)andθ1= k∈Z e k d e k+1.Introducing the coordinate function t= k∈Z k e k,wefindθ1=d t and ℓ1f=∂+t f with the discrete derivative∂+t f(t)=f(t+1)−f(t).Henced f=(∂+t f)d t.(2.18) This example is important as a model for a discrete parameter space,and in particular as a model for discrete time.A generalization is obtained by taking the additive group G=Z n and S={(1,0,...,0),(0,1,0,...,0),...,(0,...,0,1)}=:{ˆm|1≤m≤n}which generates G.This leads to an oriented hypercubic lattice digraph.Then(ℓˆm f)(k)=f(k+ˆm)−12311112222Figure 1:The group lattice of Z 4with S ={1,2}.f (k )=:(∂+ˆm f )(k )and θˆm =k ∈Z n e k d e k +ˆm .Introducing coordinates via x = k ∈Z n k e k =(x 1,...,x n ),we find d f =n m =1(∂+ˆm f )d x m ,θˆm =d x m .(2.19)This differential calculus appeared first in Ref.[1](see also Ref.[30])and turned out to be useful,in particular,in the context of lattice gauge theory [31]and completely integrable lattice models [5]. Example 2.2.Let G =Z m (m =2,3,...),the finite additive group of elements 0,1,2,m −1with composition law addition modulo m .The unit element is e =0.Choosing S ={1},we have a single basis 1-form θ1.In contrast to example 2.1,here θ1is not exact.Indeed,suppose that θ1=d f for some function f .This is equivalent to ℓ1f =1which leads to the contradiction m = g (ℓ1f )(g )=0.By taking direct products of this lattice,a group lattice structure for G =Z n m is obtained.Example 2.3.For G =Z 2,the only group lattice is the complete digraph corresponding to the universal first order differential calculus on the two elements {0,1}.For G =Z 3,one has to distinguish two cases.If S contains a single element only,the group lattice is a closed linear chain of arrows (cf example 2.2).The choice S ={1,2}leads to the complete digraph on the three elements and thus to the universal differential calculus.Less simple structures appear for G =Z m ,m >3.For example,choosing G =Z 4and S ={1,2},we obtain the group lattice drawn in Fig.1. Example 2.4.The permutation group S 3has the 6elementse ,(12),(13),(23),(123),(132)grouped into conjugacy classes.Choosing S ={(12),(13),(23)},we have three left-invariant 1-forms θ(12),θ(13),θ(23).The corresponding digraph is drawn on the left-hand side of Fig.2.Here a line represents a double arrow.If we choose S ={(123),(132)},then S does not generate S 3and the digraph is discon-nected.The two parts are drawn in the middle of Fig.2.Since S e is a subgroup,accordinge (12)(13)(123)(23)(12)(12)(12)(13)(13)(13)(23)(23)(23)(132)(132)e (123)(132)(123)(23)(123)(13)(132)(12)e(123)(132)(12)(13)(23)(12)(12)(12)(123)(123)(123)(123)(123)(123)Figure 2:Digraphs corresponding to the three different choices {(12),(13),(23)},{(123),(132)}and {(12),(123)}of S ⊂S 3.to Lemma 2.2we have the universal first order differential calculus on the two disjoint parts of S 3in this case.Another choice is S ={(12),(123)}.The corresponding digraph is shown on the right-hand side of Fig.2(see also Refs.[16,17]).We call a group lattice bicovariant if ad(S )S ⊂S .The significance of this definition will be made clear in section 3.Our previous examples of group lattices are indeed bicovariant,except for (S 3,S ={(12),(123)}).Since S is assumed to be a finite set,we have the following result.Lemma 2.3ad(g )S ⊂S ⇒ad(g −1)S ⊂S .(2.20)Proof:By assumption,ad(g )is a map S →S which is clearly injective.Since S is a finite set,it is then also surjective.As a consequence,ad(g −1)S =ad(g )−1S =S . Example 2.5.Let G =A 5,the alternating group consisting of the even permutations of five objects.It is generated by the two permutations a =(12345)and b =(12)(34)which satisfy a 5=e ,b 2=e and (ab )3=e .Let S ={a,a −1,b }.Then the group lattice is a truncated icosahedron,obtained from the icosahedron by replacing each of the 12sites by a pentagon.The result is a group lattice structure for the C 60Fullerene [18].This group lattice is not bicovariant.In the following we refer to a pair of elements h 1,h 2∈S such that h 1h 2=e as a “biangle”,to a triple h 0,h 1,h 2∈S such that h 1h 2=h 0as a “triangle”and to a quadruple of elements h 1,h 2,h 3,h 4∈S such that h 1h 2=h 3h 4∈S e as a “quadrangle”(see Fig.3).[32]In particular,each pair h 1,h 2of commuting elements of S with h 1h 2∈S e determines a quadrangle.h−1ggh hh 1h 1h 2h 3h 3h4h 1h 2g g g g h 2h1h1h 0h 0g g g Figure 3:Group lattice parts corresponding to a biangle,a triangle and a quadrangle,respectively.3Differentiable maps between group latticesLet (G i ,S i ),i =1,2,be two group lattices and φ:G 1→G 2a map between them.The latter induces an algebra homomorphism φ∗:A 2→A 1where φ∗f 2=f 2◦φ.In particular,φ∗e g 2=e φ−1{g 2}(3.1)where we introduced the notatione K := g ∈K e g (3.2)for K ⊂G ,and e ∅:=0.The following result shows that every homomorphism between algebras of functions on group lattices is realized by a pull-back map (see also Ref.[33]).Theorem 3.1If Φ:A 2→A 1is an algebra homomorphism,then there is a map φ:G 1→G 2,such that Φ=φ∗.Proof:If f ∈A 1is such that f 2=f ,then f =e K for some K ⊂G 1.In fact,since f = g 1∈G 1f (g 1)e g 1,we find f (g 1)(f (g 1)−1)=0for all g 1∈G 1,so that f (g 1)∈{0,1}.Hence f = g 1∈K e g 1with K ={g 1∈G 1|f (g 1)=1}.From e g 2e g ′2=δg 2,g ′2e g 2in A 2wefind Φ(e g 2)Φ(e g ′2)=δg 2,g ′2Φ(e g 2).Hence Φ(e g 2)=e K g 2for some K g 2⊂G 1.Furthermore,from Φ(e g 2)Φ(e g ′2)=0for g 2=g ′2we infer K g 2∩K g ′2=∅and from Φ(12)=11we obtain g 2∈G 2K g 2=G 1.Hence we have a partition of G 1.Now we define φ:G 1→G 2by settingφ(g 1)=g 2for all g 1∈K g 2.Then φis well defined and φ∗(e g 2)=e K g 2=Φ(e g 2).Now we try to extend φ∗to 1-forms requiringφ∗(f d 2f ′)=(φ∗f )d 1(φ∗f ′).(3.3)However,this is not well defined unless it is guaranteed that the right side vanishes whenever the left side vanishes.By linearity,it is sufficient to considerφ∗(e g 2d 2e g ′2)=e φ−1{g 2}d 1e φ−1{g ′2}(3.4)for all g2,g′2∈G2.The consistency condition now takes the formφ−1I2⊂I1,which is equivalent tog−11g′1∈S1=⇒φ(g1)−1φ(g′1)∈S2∪{e2}.(3.5) This means thatφeither sends an arrow at a site to an arrow at the image site or deletes it,butφcannot“create”an arrow.A map with this property will be called differentiable (see also Ref.[4]).In this case we have more generallyφ∗(fα)=(φ∗f)(φ∗α)for f∈A2and α∈Ω12.In order to define a dual ofφ∗on vectorfields,φhas to be a differentiable bijection. Then we setφ∗X1,α2 = X1,φ∗α2 ◦φ−1(3.6) where X1∈X1andα2∈Ω12.As a consequence,we obtainφ∗(f·X)=(φ−1∗f)·φ∗X(3.7) and,using(2.16),wefindφ∗X=φ−1∗Xφ∗.(3.8) In particular,for each g∈G the left translation L g:G→G is a differentiable map since if g′−1g′′∈S,then also(gg′)−1(gg′′)∈S.The special basis of1-forms{θh|h∈S}and the dual basis{ℓh|h∈S}of vectorfields are left-invariant:L∗gθh=θh,L g∗ℓh=ℓh(∀g∈G,h∈S).(3.9)Hence the differential calculus of a group lattice is left covariant.The condition for the right translation R g:G→G to be differentiable is that for g′−1g′′∈S also(g′g)−1(g′′g)=g−1(g′−1g′′)g∈S.This amounts to ad(g−1)h∈S for all h∈S.As a consequence of Lemma2.3,differentiability of R g implies differentiability of R g−1and we obtainR∗gθh= g′∈G(R∗g e g′)d R∗g e g′h= g′′∈G e g′′d e g′′ghg−1=θad(g)h.(3.10) Furthermore,R g∗ℓh=ℓad(g−1)h,R g−1∗ℓh=ℓad(g)h.(3.11) If R g and R g′are both differentiable,then also R gg′and we have R∗gg′=R∗g◦R∗g′on1-forms.If R g is differentiable for all g∈G,then the differential calculus is called right covari-ant.A differential calculus which is both left and right covariant is called bicovariant[34]. Bicovariance of a group lattice,as defined in section2,is the weaker condition ad(h)S⊂S (and then also ad(h−1)S⊂S)for all h∈S.This means that for all h∈S the maps R h and R h−1are differentiable.If S does not generate G,this condition is indeed weaker than bicovariance of thefirst order differential calculus.But then the corresponding digraph is disconnected(cf Lemma2.1).So,if S generates G,the bicovariance conditions for thefirst order differential calculus and the group lattice coincide.4Higher order differential calculus of a group latticeLet(Ωu,d u)be the(full)universal differential calculus over A.Then we haveΩu= ∞r=0Ωr u withΩ0u=A.Let J be the differential ideal ofΩu generated by J1whereΩ1=Ω1u/J1. Since J1is homogeneous of grade1,the differential ideal J is also graded,J= ∞r=0J r with J0={0}.ThenΩ=Ωu/J inherits the grading,i.e.Ω= ∞r=0Ωr withΩ0=A.The projectionπu:Ωu→Ωis a graded algebra homomorphism and we have a differential map d:Ω→Ωsuch that dπu=πu d u.It satisfies d2=0and has the graded derivation property (Leibniz rule)d(ωω′)=(dω)ω′+(−1)rωdω′(4.1) for allω∈Ωr andω′∈Ω.In this section we explore for group lattices the structure ofΩbeyond1-forms.For(g,g′)∈I we obtain0=πu d u(e g d u e g′)=πu(d u e g)πu(d u e g′)=d e g d e g′.Using(2.12) and introducing˜g=g−1g′,this results in the2-form relationsh,h′∈Sδ˜g hh′θhθh′=0∀˜g∈S e.(4.2)If S e is a subgroup of G,there are no such conditions.In this case,the group lattice is disconnected with components the left cosets of S e in G and with the universal differential calculus on each component(see Lemma2.2).If S e is not a subgroup,then there are elements h,h′∈S such that hh′∈S e and therefore non-trivial relations of the form(4.2)appear.The following well-known result implies that at the level of r-forms,r>2,no further relations appear which are not directly taken into account by the2-form relations. Lemma4.1Letα∈Ω1u.The two-sided ideal generated byαand d uαis a differential ideal inΩu.Proof:This is an immediate consequence of the Leibniz rule for d u and d2u=0. Remark.If for some h∈S also h−1∈S,then the2-formsθhθh−1,θh−1θh do not vanish.As a consequence,we have formsθhθh−1θh···of arbitrarily high order.This could be avoided by settingθhθh−1=θh−1θh=0.However,such a restriction may exclude interesting cases.For example,one can formulate the Connes and Lott2-point space geometry[8]using(Z2,{1}). The only non-vanishing2-form is thenθ1θ1.If we set this to zero,then every2-form au-tomatically vanishes,and thus in particular the curvature of a connection.Moreover,such 2-form relations imposed“by hand”in general induce higher form relations,which have to be elaborated and taken into account.The2-formθhθh−1has the interesting property that it commutes with all functions. Applying d toθh= g∈G e g d e gh,using the Leibniz rule for d and formulas from section2, wefinddθh=θθh+θhθ−∆(θh)(4.3)where∆(θh)= h′,h′′∈Sδh h′h′′θh′θh′′(4.4) determines an A-bimodule morphism[35]∆:Ω1→Ωing(2.15),we obtain[36]dα=θα+αθ−∆(α)(4.5) for an arbitrary1-formα.A special case of this formula isdθ=2θ2−∆(θ).(4.6) As the sum of all basic2-forms,θ2= h,h′∈Sθhθh′comprises all the2-form relations.Since ∆(θ)contains all“triangular”2-forms,the differenceθ2−∆(θ)consists of the sum of all nonzero2-forms of the formθhθh′with hh′=e.Introducing∆e:= h∈S(0)θhθh−1(4.7) where S(0):={h∈S|h−1∈S},we obtainθ2−∆(θ)=∆e(4.8) and thusdθ=θ2+∆e=∆(θ)+2∆e.(4.9) Let us extend the map∆toΩby requiring∆(f)=0(4.10) for all f∈A and∆(ωω′)=∆(ω)ω′+(−1)rω∆(ω′)(4.11) for allω∈Ωr andω′∈Ω.This is just the(graded)Leibniz rule,hence∆is a graded derivation.Lemma4.2dω=[θ,ω]−∆(ω)∀ω∈Ω(4.12) where[,]is the graded commutator.Proof:We use induction on the grade r of formsω∈Ωr.For0-forms the formula is just (2.15),for1-forms it coincides with(4.5).Let us now assume that it holds for forms of grade lower than r.Forψ∈Ωk,k<r,andω∈Ω<r we then obtaind(ψω)=(dψ)ω+(−1)rψdω= [θ,ψ]−∆(ψ) ω+(−1)rψ [θ,ω]−∆(ω)=[θ,ψω]−∆(ψω)using the Leibniz rules for d and∆.Iterated application of(4.11)leads to∆(θh1···θh r)=∆(θh1)θh1···θh r−θh1∆(θh2)θh3···θh r+...+(−1)r−1θh1···θh r−1∆(θh r).(4.13) Furthermore,0=d2ω=[θ,dω]−∆(dω)=[θ,[θ,ω]]−[θ,∆(ω)]−∆([θ,ω])+∆2(ω)=[θ2−∆(θ),ω]+∆2(ω)(4.14) shows that∆2(ω)=−[∆e,ω].(4.15) Acting with∆on(4.8),using(4.11)and the last identity,we deduce∆(∆e)=0.(4.16) Remark.The cohomology of the universal differential calculus is always trivial.But this does not hold for its reductions,in general.For example,for m>2,the group lattice(Z m,{1}) has nontrivial cohomology.There is only a single basis1-formθ1and the2-form relations enforce(θ1)2=0so that there are no non-vanishing2-forms.In particular,dθ1=0.But we have seen in example2.2thatθ1is not exact.The cohomology of the group lattice (Z4,{1,2}),for example,is trivial.4.1Action of differentiable maps on formsAccording to section3,a mapφ:G→G is differentiable(with respect to a group lattice structure determined by a choice S⊂G)if the pull-backφ∗extends from A to thefirst order differential calculus,i.e.it also acts onΩ1as an A-bimodule homomorphism and satisfies φ∗(d f)=d(φ∗f).Moreover,we can extend it to the whole ofΩas an algebra homomorphism viaφ∗(ωω′)=(φ∗ω)(φ∗ω′).(4.17) Lemma4.3For a differentiable mapφ:G→G we haveφ∗◦d=d◦φ∗(onΩ).(4.18) Proof:Sinceφis differentiable,the formula holds on0-forms.If it holds on r-forms,thenφ∗d(f dω)=φ∗(d f dω)=(φ∗d f)φ∗dω=(dφ∗f)dφ∗ω=d[(φ∗f)dφ∗ω]=dφ∗(f dω).Since every(r+1)-form can be written as a sum of terms like f dωwith f∈A andω∈Ωr, the formula holds for(r+1)-forms and thus onΩby induction.By definition,a differentiable mapφ:G→G preserves the1-form relations.Sinceφ∗commutes with d,it also preserves the2-form relations.Lemma4.4For a differentiable bijectionφ:G→G we haveφ∗θ=θ(4.19)∆◦φ∗=φ∗◦∆(4.20) Proof:First we note that(2.14)can be written asθ= (g,g′)∈I e g d e g′− g∈G e g d e g= g,g′∈G e g d e g′− g∈G e g d e g.Then,usingφ∗e g=eφ−1(g),wefindφ∗θ= g,g′∈G eφ−1(g)d eφ−1(g′)− g∈G eφ−1(g)d eφ−1(g)=θsinceφis bijective.The second assertion now follows from[φ∗θ,φ∗ω]−φ∗∆(ω)=φ∗dω=dφ∗ω=[θ,φ∗ω]−∆(φ∗ω).4.2The structure of the space of2-formsLet S(1)denote the subset of S,the elements of which can be written as products of two other elements of S,i.e.S(1)=S2∩S where S2={hh′|h,h′∈S}.Furthermore,let S(2) be the set of elements of G which do not belong to S e,but can be written as a product hh′for some h,h′∈S.Hence S(2)=S2\S e.Since for every element of S(2)there is a2-form relation,the number of independent2-forms is|S|2−|S(2)|.Now we have a decomposition S×S={(h,h−1)|h∈S(0)}∪{(h,h′)|hh′∈S(1)}∪{(h,h′)|hh′∈S(2)}which defines a direct sum decomposition ofΩ2.Introducing projectionsp(e)(θh1θh2)=δe hθh1θh2(4.21)1h2θh1θh2(h∈S(1))(4.22)p(h)(θh1θh2)=δh h1h2θh1θh2(g∈S(2))(4.23)p(g)(θh1θh2)=δgh1h2which extend to left A-module homomorphisms p(e),p(h),p(g):Ω2→Ω2,every2-formψ∈Ω2 can be decomposed with the help of the identityψ=(p(e)+ h∈S(1)p(h)+ g∈S(2)p(g))ψ.(4.24)The three parts of this decomposition correspond,respectively,to biangles,triangles and quadrangles,which we introduced in section2.A relation between elements of S which leads to a2-form relation has the form h1h′1= h2h′2=···=h k h′k∈S e.The latter then implies the2-form relationθh1θh′1+θh2θh′2+···+θh kθh′k=0.(4.25)Let us now assume that(G,S)is bicovariant.Given h1,h2∈S with h1h2∈S e,we then obtain a chain...=h0h1=h1h2=h2h3=...where h0=ad(h1)h2and h3=ad(h−12)h1, and so forth.Since S is assumed to befinite,only afinite part of the chain contains pairwise different members.This means that the chain must actually consist of“cycles”, i.e.subchains of the form h1h2=h2h3=···=h r−1h r=h r h1.A relation likeθhθh′=0, consisting of a single term,is only possible if h′=h and h2∈S e.Example4.1.For the permutation group S3and S={(12),(13),(23)}(see example2.4)we have S(0)=S(since(ij)2=e),S(1)=∅and S(2)={(123),(132)}.As a consequence of the cycles(12)(13)=(13)(23)=(23)(12)=(123)and(12)(23)=(23)(13)=(13)(12)=(132) the three basic1-formsθ(12),θ(13),θ(23)have to satisfy the two2-form relationsθ(12)θ(13)+θ(13)θ(23)+θ(23)θ(12)=0,θ(12)θ(23)+θ(23)θ(13)+θ(13)θ(12)=0.Hence there are32−2=7independent2-forms:θ(12)θ(12),θ(13)θ(13),θ(23)θ(23)and,say,θ(13)θ(23),θ(23)θ(12),θ(12)θ(23),θ(23)θ(13).If we choose S={(123),(132)},then S e is a subgroup and we have the universal calculus on the two cosets of S e in S3.Then there are no2-form relations. Example4.2.The alternating group A4has the following elements,e,(123),(243),(134),(142),(132),(234),(143),(124),(12)(34),(13)(24),(14)(23)grouped into conjugacy classes.Choosing S={(123),(243),(134),(142)},the group lattice is connected.As a consequence of(123)(134)=(134)(243)=(243)(123)=(124)=(142)2(123)(243)=(243)(142)=(142)(123)=(143)=(134)2(123)(142)=(142)(134)=(134)(123)=(234)=(243)2(134)(142)=(142)(243)=(243)(134)=(132)=(123)2we obtain four2-form relations,so there are twelve independent2-forms.Note that in this example there are two different cycles for each of the elements(124),(143),(234),(132)of S(2). Remark.For a bicovariant differential calculus a bimodule isomorphismσ:Ω1⊗AΩ1→Ω1⊗AΩ1exists[6,34]such thatσ(θh1⊗Aθh2)=θad(h1)h2⊗Aθh1=θh0⊗Aθh1(4.26)with inverseσ−1(θh1⊗Aθh2)=θh2⊗Aθad(h−12)h1=θh2⊗Aθh3.(4.27)These formulas show that the2-form relations,and moreover each cycle,is invariant under σ.Woronowicz[34]introduced the wedge product1θh∧θh′=。

Well written exposition of this result is realised locally. The components of a triangle all, closed embedded in jesse douglas was first work.

There is always possible examples of hr in the sphere they noticed. I think anyone thinking taking, the boundary of fixed curve is located.

A torus immersed tori can provide, an affirmative answer.Many exercises contain practical calculations of the simply described using partial differential equation derived in terms. In e2 classically in intrinsic, invariant of geodesics. In euclidean space hilbert manifold namely any developable along radii are the structure is given. Alas that's probably not optimal the text hilbert manifold is conformally equivalent.

微分几何与广义相对论英文English Answer:Differential geometry is a branch of mathematics that studies smooth manifolds, which are spaces that are locally Euclidean. It is a fundamental tool in general relativity, which is a theory of gravity that describes the universe on a large scale.In general relativity, spacetime is modeled as a smooth manifold. The curvature of spacetime is determined by the distribution of mass and energy in the universe. The equations of general relativity describe how the curvature of spacetime affects the motion of objects.Differential geometry provides the mathematical tools that are needed to understand the curvature of spacetime. These tools include the concepts of Riemannian manifolds, curvature tensors, and geodesics.Riemannian manifolds are smooth manifolds that are equipped with a metric tensor. The metric tensor is a field that assigns a length to each tangent vector at each point on the manifold. The curvature tensor is a field that measures the curvature of the manifold. Geodesics are curves on the manifold that minimize the distance between two points.The equations of general relativity can be expressed in terms of the curvature tensor and the metric tensor. These equations describe how the curvature of spacetime affects the motion of objects.Differential geometry is a powerful tool that has been used to make significant advances in our understanding of gravity. It is a fundamental part of general relativity, and it continues to be used to explore the nature of the universe.Chinese Answer:微分几何是数学的一个分支,它研究光滑流形,即局部欧几里得空间。

In a classical Lie group G,one-order differential calculus is a linear mapd:C∞(G)−→Γ,where C∞(G)is a C-algebra consisting of all smooth functions on G andΓis a C∞(G)-bimodule consisting of all differential forms.This linear map satisfies(i)the nilpotencyd2=0,(14) (ii)for all f,g∈C∞(G),d(fg)=(d f)g+(−1)ˆf f(d g)(15)where f and g are functions of the generators andˆf is the corresponding grading of f.According to the ideas of noncommutative geometry[3],the differential calculus can be defined on a more general noncommutative algebra.Let A1be a Hopf algebra with unit generated by the generators a k(k=0,1,2,3). We denote differentials of a k by d a k.Then one can construct the one-formΩ,whereΩ=d h h⋆.(16)Explicitly,w0=d a0a0+d a1a1+d a2a2+d a3a3,(17) etc.It can be easily checked that these one-forms construct a four dimensional Grassmann algebra.The anti-commutation relations of the one-forms allow us to construct the algebra of the generators.To obtain the Lie algebra of the algebra generators wefirst write the one-forms asd a0=w0a0−w1a1−w2a2−w3a3,(18) etc.The differential d can then the expressed in the formd=2(w0∇0−w1∇1+w2∇2−w3∇3),(19) where∇k(k=0,1,2,3)are the Lie algebra generators.We wish to obtain the commutation relations of these generators.Let f be an arbitrary function of the generators of A1.Then,using the nilpotency of the exterior differential d we obtain (−1)k d w k∇k f=(−1)k+j w k(w j∇j)∇k f,k,j=0,1,2,3(20) where summation over repeated indices is ing one-forms one easily obtain the two-formsd w0=0,d w1=2w2w3,d w2=2w3w1,d w3=−2w2w1,(21) sincedΩ=−d h d h⋆=Ω2.(22) We nowfind the following commutation relations for the Lie algebra[∇1,∇0]=[∇2,∇0]=[∇3,∇0]=0,[∇1,∇2]=−2∇3,[∇2,∇3]=−2∇1,[∇3,∇1]=−2∇2.(23)3.2Quantum caseA differential algebra on H q is an associative algebraΓequipped with an operator d.Also the algebraΓhas to be generated by A∪d A.Firstly,to obtain the relations between the generators of A and their differentials. We shall use the method of ing the consistency of a differential calculus, as thefinal result one has the following commutation relationsa0d x+=q2+12d x+a1,a1d x+=q2+12d x+a0,a0d x−=q2+12d x−a1+(q−q−1)22d x−a1+iq2−12d x+x−+i(q−q−1)(d a2a2+d a3a3), a0d a2=q d a2a0+q2−12(d a0+i d a1)a3,a1d a2=q d a2a1−iq2−12(d a0+i d a1)a3,a2d a0=q d a0a2+q2−12d a2(a0−i a1),a2d a2=q2+12d a3a3−q−q−12d a3a2+q2−12d a3(a0−i a1),a3d a1=q d a1a3−iq2−12d a2a3+q2−12d a3a3−q2−12d x+x−,whered x±=d a0±i d a1.Applying the exterior differential d on the relations(24)and using the nilpotency of d one obtainsd a0d a1=−d a1d a0,(d a0)2=0=(d a1)2,d a0d a2=−q+q−12d a2d a1,d a0d a3=−q+q−12d a3d a,d a1d a2=−q+q−12d a2d a,(25)d a1d a3=−q+q−12d a3d a1,d a2d a3=−d a3d a2,(d a2)2=i(q−q−1)d a1d a0=(d a3)2.There is an interesting case which gives rise to the second kind of quaternionic variables,Grassmann quaternion is defined byψ=ψ0e0+ψ1e1+ψ2e2+ψ3e3,where componentsψk(k=0,1,2,3)are Grassmann variables.Essentially the re-lations(25)are the relations between the componentsψk,in q-deformation.More details will be given in Appendix.To complete the differential calculus,we need the Cartan-Maurer one-forms.In analogy with the one-forms on a Lie group in classical differential geometry,one can construct the one-formΩwhereΩ=d h h⋆=w0e0+w1e1+w2e2+w3e3.So we can write the one-forms as followsw0=α0a0+α1a1+q+q−12(α3a2−α2a3),w1=−α0a1+α1a0−q+q−12(α2a2+α3a3),w2=α2a0−α3a1+q+q−12(α0a3+α1a2),(26)w3=α2a1+α3a0−q+q−12(α1a3−α0a2),whereα0=d a0,etc.We wish tofind the commutation relations of the generators of A with those of the components ofΩwhich may be computed directly,as follows:a0w+=q2+12w+a1,a2w+=q2+12w+a3,a1w+=q2+12w+a0,a3w+=q2+12w+a2,a0w2=qw2a0+q−q−12w+a0,a1w2=qw2a1−q−q−12w+a1,(27)a0w3=qw3a0+q−q−12w+a1,a1w3=qw3a1+q−q−12w+a0,a0w−=q2+12w−a1+(q−q−1)2a1w−=q2+12w−a0−i(q−q−1)22w−a2−iq2−12w+(a2+i a3)+(q2−1)(w2a0+w3a1),a3w−=q2+12w−a2−i(q−q−1)22w3w2,w21=iq2−q−22w3w1+i(q−q−1)22w2w1+i(q−q−1)22w2w1+iq−2−q22w3w1+iq2−q−2Ω=(1−q−2)(w0+i w1)e0.(30)To obtain the quantum algebra of the algebra generators wefirst write the Cartan-Maurer forms asd a0=w0a0−(w1a1+w2a2+w3a3),d a1=w0a1+w1a0+w2a3−w3a2,d a2=w0a2−w1a3+w2a0+w3a1,(31)d a3=w0a3+w1a2−w2a1+w3a0.Note thatd⋆=q2d.(32) Indeed,for example,(d a0)⋆=a⋆0w⋆0−a⋆1w⋆1−a⋆2w⋆2−a⋆3w⋆3=q−2a0(w0+i w1)−i(a0−i a1)w1−12a3[(q−q−1)w2+i(q+q−1)w3]=q2(w0a0−w1a1−w2a2−w3a3)so thatd⋆a⋆0=q2(w0a0−w1a1−w2a2−w3a3)=q2d a0=q2d a⋆0implies thatd⋆−q2d=0.Using the nilpotency of the differential d,we can write the two-forms asd w0=i(q −2−1)w2w3,d w1=(q−2+1)w2w3,d w2=i(q −2−1)w2w1+(q−2+1)w3w1,(33)d w3=i(q −2−1)w3w1−(q−2+1)w2w1.Using the Cartan-Maurer equations with together(27)wefind the following com-mutation relations for the quantum algebra:∇0∇1=∇1∇0,∇0∇2=∇2∇0,∇0∇3=∇3∇0,∇1∇2=q2+q−22∇0∇1−q2−q−2∇1∇3=q2+q−22∇0∇1 +q2−q−22∇20+(q−q−1)22ψ2ψ0+iq−q−12ψ3ψ0+iq−q−12ψ2ψ1−iq−q−1ψ1ψ3=−q+q−12ψ3ψ0,ψ2 2=iq−q−1References[1]V.G.Drinfeld,Quantum groups,in Proc.Int.Cong.Math.,798(Berkeley,1986).[2]N.Y.Reshetikhin,L.A.Takhtajan and L.D.Faddeev,Quantisation of Liegroups and Lie algebras,Leningrad Math.J.1(1990),193;Yu I.Manin,Quantum groups and noncommutative geometry,(Montreal Univ.1988).[3]A.Connes,Noncommutative Geometry,(Academic Press,1991).[4]S.L.Woronowicz,Differential calculus on compact matrix pseudogroups,Com-mun.Math.Phys.122(1989),125;S.L.Woronowicz,Twisted SU(2)group.An example of a noncommutative differential calculus,Publ.Res.Inst.Math.Sci.23(1987),117;J.Wess and B.Zumino,Nucl.Phys.(Proc.Suppl.)18B(1990),302.[5]S.Marchiafava and J.Rembielinski,Quantum quaternions,J.Math.Phys.33(1992),171.[6]S.C¸elik,The Hopf algebra structure of GL(1,H q)and the isomorphisms SP q(1)and SU q(2),Lett.Math.Phys.42(1997),27;S.C¸elik,Quantum Matrix Groups and q-Oscillators,(in Turkish)Ph.D.Thesis, (Istanbul Technical University,1992).[7]S.C¸elik and S.A.C¸elik,On the differential geometry of GL q(1|1),J.Phys.A31(1998),9685.[8]S.C¸elik,Two parameter deformation of grassmann matrix groups and super-groups,J.Math.Phys.37(1996),3568.14。
