Dirac operators for matrix algebras converging to coadjoint orbits

Abstract
In the high-energy physics literature one finds statements such as ``matrix algebras converge to the sphere''. Earlier I provided a general precise setting for understanding such statements, in which the matrix algebras are viewed as quantum metric spaces, and convergence is with respect to a quantum Gromov-Hausdorff-type distance. But physicists want even more to treat structures on spheres (and other spaces), such as vector bundles, Yang-Mills functionals, Dirac operators, etc., and they want to approximate these by corresponding structures on matrix algebras. In the present paper we provide a somewhat unified construction of Dirac operators on coadjoint orbits and on the matrix algebras that converge to them. This enables us to prove our main theorem, whose content is that, for the quantum metric-space structures determined by the Dirac operators that we construct, the matrix algebras do indeed converge to the coadjoint orbits, for a quite strong version of quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance.
