Titolo:	CATEGORIFICATION OF GEL'FAND DUALITY AND NON-COMMUTATIVE GEOMETRY
Abstract:	We present a duality for commutative full C*-categories, generalizing the usual Gel'fand duality between Abelian unital C*-algebras and compact Hausdorff spaces, and we emphasize its role in a much wider research project aiming at the development of categorical methods in the context of A.Connes' non-commutative geometry in view of applications to relativistic quantum physics. This is an ongoing joint research with Dr.Roberto Conti and Dr.Wicharn Lewkeeratiyutkul (Chulalongkorn University - Bangkok).
