Particle Physics Models, Grand Unification and Gravity in Non-Commutative Geometry
نویسنده
چکیده
We review the construction of particle physics models in the framework of noncommutative geometry. We first give simple examples, and then progress to outline the Connes-Lott construction of the standard Weinberg-Salam model and our construction of the SO(10) model. We then discuss the analogue of the Einstein-Hilbert action and gravitational matter couplings. Finally we speculate on some experimental signatures of predictions specific to the non-commutative approach.

Review of Non - Commutative Geometric Methods Applied to Particle Physics
This is a brief review where some basic elements of non-commutative geometry are given. The rules and ingredients that enter in the construction of the standard model and grand unification models in non-commutative geometry are summarized. A connection between some space-time supersymmetric theories and non-commutative geometry is made. The advantages and prolems of this direction are discussed.
متن کاملProton Stability in Grand Unified Theories, in Strings and in Branes
A broad overview of the current status of proton stability in unified models of particle interactions is given which includes non supersymmetric unification, SUSY and SUGRA unified models, unification based on extra dimensions, and string-M-theory models. The extra dimensional unification includes 5D and 6D and universal extra dimensional (UED) models, and models based on warped geometry. Proto...
متن کاملGrand Unification in Non-Commutative Geometry
The formalism of non-commutative geometry of A. Connes is used to construct models in particle physics. The physical space-time is taken to be a product of a continuous four-manifold by a discrete set of points. The treatment of Connes is modified in such a way that the basic algebra is defined over the space of matrices, and the breaking mechanism is planted in the Dirac operator. This mechani...
متن کاملConnection between Space-Time Supersymmetry and Non-Commutative Geometry
The non-commutative geometric construction of A. Connes [1-5] has been successful in giving a geometrical interpretation of the standard model as well as some grand unification models. Our lack of ability to quantize the non-commutative actions forced on us to quantize the classical actions resulting from the non-commutative ones by adopting the usual rules. The symmetries that might be present...
متن کامل" Extended " Particles, Non Commutative Geometry and Unification
A reconciliation of gravitation and electromagnetism has eluded physics for neearly a century. It is argued here that this is because both quantum physics and classical physics are set in differentiable space time manifolds with point particles. Once we consider extended particles as in Quantum Superstring theory, and the consequential underlying Non-Commutative geometry, then a reconciliation ...
