Non-commutative Projective Geometry as a Tool
Today, non-commutative projective geometry is an independent area of research, yet it grew from a need to find new tools for understanding algebras arising in quantum physics. In this talk, the use of non-commutative projective geometry in physics and algebra will be outlined, together with the history of its development. Some geometry and linear algebra background will be assumed.
