Understanding truncated non-commutative geometries through computer simulations

When aiming to apply mathematical results of non-commutative geometry to physical problems the question arises how they translate to a context in which only a part of the spectrum is known. In this article we aim to detect when a finite-dimensional triple is the truncation of the Dirac spectral triple of a spin manifold. To that end, we numerically investigate the restriction that the higher Heisenberg equation [A. H. Chamseddine, A. Connes, and V. Mukhanov, Journal of High Energy Physics, 98 (2014)] places on a truncated Dirac operator. We find a bounded perturbation of the Dirac operator on the Riemann sphere that induces the same Chern class.
