Abstract

Using the algebraic geometric approach of Berenstein et {\it al} (hep-th/005087 and hep-th/009209) and methods of toric geometry, we study non commutative (NC) orbifolds of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties with discrete torsion. We first develop a new way of getting complex mirror Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric manifolds with a action and analyze the general group of the discrete isometries of . Then we build a general class of complex dimension NC mirror Calabi-Yau orbifolds where the non commutativity parameters are solved in terms of discrete torsion and toric geometry data of in which the original Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces is embedded. Next we work out a generalization of the NC algebra for generic dimensions NC Calabi-Yau manifolds and give various representations depending on different choices of the Calabi-Yau toric geometry data. We also study fractional D-branes at orbifold points. We refine and extend the result for NC to higher dimensional torii orbifolds in terms of Clifford algebra.
