Representation stacks, D-branes and noncommutative geometry

Abstract

In this note we prove that the spec(C)-points of the representation Artin-stack [repn R/PGLn] of n-dimensional representations of an affine algebra R correspond to algebra morphisms R-->A where A is an Azumaya algebra of degree n over C. We connect this to the study of D-branes and Azumaya noncommutative geometry, developed by Chien-Hao Liu and Shing-Tung Yau in a series of papers from arXiv:0709.1515 to arXiv:1003.1178
