Important inspiration came from the fundament al observation of Connes saying that the metric on a compact spin manifold can be recovered from the Dirac operator. A compact quantum metric space is an operator system (e.g. a unital C*-algebra) equipped with a seminorm which metrizes the weak-*-topology on the state space via the associated M onge-Kantorovich metric. In this talk we study tensor products of compact quantum metric spaces with specific focus on seminorms arising from the ex terior product of spectral triples. On our way we obtain a novel character ization of compact quantum metric spaces using finite dimensional approxim ations and we apply this characterization to propose a completely bounded version of the theory.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/NYC-NCG/63/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
