Quantum Hall Effect and Non-commutative Geometry

  • Chapter
Quantum Spaces

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematical Physics ((PMP,volume 53))

Abstract

Our aim is to introduce the ideas of non-commutative geometry through the example of the Quantum Hall Effect (QHE). We present a few concrete situations where the concepts of non-commutative geometry find physical applications.
