We introduce the symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$ over a noncommutative algebra $A$ with an anti-involution $\sigma$. We realize several classical Lie groups as $\mathrm{Sp}_2$ over various noncommutative algebras, which provides new insights into their structure theory. We construct several geometric spaces, on which the groups $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$ act. We introduce the space of isotropic $A$-lines, which generalizes the projective line. We describe the action of $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$ on isotropic $A$-lines, generalize the Kashiwara-Maslov index of triples and the cross ratio of quadruples of isotropic $A$-lines as invariants of this action. When the algebra $A$ is Hermitian or the complexification of a Hermitian algebra, we introduce the symmetric space $X_{\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)}$, and construct different models of this space. Applying this to classical Hermitian Lie groups of tube type (realized as $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$) and their complexifications, we obtain different models of the symmetric space as noncommutative generalizations of models of the hyperbolic plane and of the three-dimensional hyperbolic space. We also provide a partial classification of Hermitian algebras in Appendix A.

Original abstract
We introduce the symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$ over a noncommutative algebra $A$ with an anti-involution $\sigma$. We realize several classical Lie groups as $\mathrm{Sp}_2$ over various noncommutative algebras, which provides new insights into their structure theory. We construct several geometric spaces, on which the groups $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$ act. We introduce the space of isotropic $A$-lines, which generalizes the projective line. We describe the action of $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$ on isotropic $A$-lines, generalize the Kashiwara-Maslov index of triples and the cross ratio of quadruples of isotropic $A$-lines as invariants of this action. When the algebra $A$ is Hermitian or the complexification of a Hermitian algebra, we introduce the symmetric space $X_{\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)}$, and construct different models of this space. Applying this to classical Hermitian Lie groups of tube type (realized as $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$) and their complexifications, we obtain different models of the symmetric space as noncommutative generalizations of models of the hyperbolic plane and of the three-dimensional hyperbolic space. We also provide a partial classification of Hermitian algebras in Appendix A.

An immediate application is that the construction of noncommutative coordinates for symplectic representations of fundamental groups of punctured surfaces developed in [ref] and its relation to noncommutative cluster algebras introduced in [ref] generalizes to representations into classical Hermitian Lie groups of tube type.
