Metrics and spectral triples for Dirichlet and resistance forms

arXiv:1309.5937 · doi:10.4171/JNCG/195

Abstract

The article deals with intrinsic metrics, Dirac operators and spectral triples induced by regular Dirichlet and resistance forms. We show, in particular, that if a local resistance form is given and the space is compact in resistance metric, then the intrinsic metric yields a geodesic space. Given a regular Dirichlet form, we consider Dirac operators within the framework of differential 1-forms proposed by Cipriani and Sauvageot, and comment on its spectral properties. If the Dirichlet form admits a carré operator and the generator has discrete spectrum, then we can construct a related spectral triple, and in the compact and strongly local case the associated Connes distance coincides with the intrinsic metric. We finally give a description of the intrinsic metric in terms of vector fields.
