Examples of Noncommutative Spaces
- In Weyl quantization, the symplectic phase space of classical mechanics is deformed into a non-commutative phase space generated by the position and momentum operators.
- The standard model of particle physics is another example of a noncommutative geometry, cf noncommutative standard model.
- The noncommutative torus, deformation of the function algebra of the ordinary torus, can be given the structure of a spectral triple. This class of examples has been studied intensively and still functions as a test case for more complicated situations.
- Snyder space
- Noncommutative algebras arising from foliations.
- Examples related to dynamical systems arising from number theory, such as the Gauss shift on continued fractions, give rise to noncommutative algebras that appear to have interesting noncommutative geometries.

Famous quotes containing the words examples of, examples and/or spaces:
“There are many examples of women that have excelled in learning, and even in war, but this is no reason we should bring ‘em all up to Latin and Greek or else military discipline, instead of needle-work and housewifry.”
—Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
“No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.”
—André Breton (1896–1966)
“Deep down, the US, with its space, its technological refinement, its bluff good conscience, even in those spaces which it opens up for simulation, is the only remaining primitive society.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
