Introduction to Braided Geometry and q-Minkowski Space
by Shahn Majid
Publisher: arXiv 1994
Number of pages: 60
Description:
We present a systematic introduction to the geometry of linear braided spaces. These are versions of Rn in which the coordinates xi have braid-statistics described by an R-matrix. From this starting point we survey the author's braided-approach to q-deformation.

Noncommutative Geometry, Quantum Fields and Motives
by Alain Connes, Matilde Marcolli - American Mathematical Society
The unifying theme of this book is the interplay among noncommutative geometry, physics, and number theory. The two main objects of investigation are spaces where both the noncommutative and the motivic aspects come to play a role.

Edinburgh Lectures on Geometry, Analysis and Physics
by Michael Atiyah - arXiv
These notes are based on a set of six lectures that the author gave in Edinburgh and they cover some topics in the interface between Geometry and Physics. They involve some unsolved problems and they may stimulate readers to investigate them.
