dc.description.abstractWe study noncommutative geometry from a metric point of view by constructing examples of spectral triples and explicitly calculating Connes's spectral distance between certain associated pure states. After considering instructive nite-dimensional spectral triples, the noncommutative geometry of the in nite-dimensional Moyal plane is studied. The corresponding spectral triple is based on the Moyal deformation of the algebra of Schwartz functions on the Euclidean plane.
