Part IV Prospects in Index Theory. Part V -- 5. Non-commutative topology N2 - This book aims to provide a friendly introduction to non-commutative geometry. It studies index theory from a classical differential geometry perspective up to the point where classical differential geometry methods become insufficient. It then presents non-commutative geometry as a natural continuation of classical differential geometry. It thereby aims to provide a natural link between classical differential geometry and non-commutative geometry. The book shows that the index formula is a topological statement, and ends with non-commutative topology UR - https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-28433-6 ER -
