Abstract
Fuzzy tori are finite dimensional C*-algebras endowed with an appropriate notion of noncommutative geometry inherited from an ergodic action of a finite closed subgroup of the torus, which are meant as finite dimensional approximations of tori and more generally, quantum tori. A mean to specify the geometry of a noncommutative space is by constructing over it a spectral triple. We prove in this paper that we can construct spectral triples on fuzzy tori which, as the dimension grow to infinity and under other natural conditions, converge to a natural spectral triple on quantum tori, in the sense of the spectral propinquity. This provides a formal assertion that indeed, fuzzy tori approximate quantum tori, not only as quantum metric spaces, but as noncommutative differentiable manifolds -- including convergence of the state spaces as metric spaces and of the quantum dynamics generated by the Dirac operators of the spectral triples, in an appropriate sense.
