Robert Yuncken (Univ. Clermont-Ferrand II, France) will give a talk with title: A groupoid approach to pseudodifferential operators

Abstract: Connes introduced the "tangent groupoid" of a manifold as a geometric device for linking a classical pseudodifferential operator to its symbol, yielding a novel proof of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem.  Since then, numerous variations on the tangent groupoid have been produced, each adapted to a different class of pseudodifferential operators.  In this talk we will consider the reverse problem: associating to a given tangent groupoid a pseudodifferential calculus.  We shall show that the kernels of classical pseudodifferential operators are precisely the essentially homogeneous fibrewise distributions on Connes' tangent groupoid.  This leads to a natural pseudodifferential calculus of subelliptic type on a manifold with a filtration on its Lie algebra of vector fields.

Réamonn Ó Buachalla (IMPAN) will give a talk with title: Noncommutative Kähler structures on quantum homogeneous spaces

Abstract:

Building on the definition of a noncommutative complex structure for a general algebra A, I will introduce the notion of a noncommutative Kähler structure for A. In the special case where A is a quantum homogeneous space, I show that many of the fundamental results of classical Kähler geometry follow from the existence of such a structure: Hodge decomposition, Serre duality, the Hard Lefschetz theorem, the Kähler identities, and collapse of the Frölicher spectral sequence at the first page. We then apply these results to Heckenberger and Kolb's differential calculus for quantum projective space, and show that they have cohomology groups of at least classical dimension. Time permitting, I will also discuss the relationship of this work to Connes proposal to study positive Hochschild cocycles as a starting point for noncommutative complex geometry, and Fröchlich, Grandjean, and Recknagel's definition of a Kähler spectral tuple.
