| dc.description | Foliated manifolds are particular examples of noncommutative spaces. In this article we try to give a qualitative description of the Godbillon-Vey class and its relation on the one hand to the holonomy and on the other hand to the topological entropy of a foliation, using a remarkable theorem proved recently by G. Duminy relating these three notions in the case of codim-1 foliations. Moreover we shall investigate its possible relation with the black hole entropy adopting the superstring theory origin of the black hole entropy in the extremal case. This situation we believe has some striking similarities with the explanation due to Bellissard of the integrality of the Hall conductivity in the quantum Hall effect. Our starting point is the Connes-Douglas-Schwarz article on compactifications of matrix models to noncommutative tori. | |
