چکیده

We construct an SO(10) grand unified theory in the formulation of non-commutative geometry. The geometry of space-time is that of a product of a continuos four dimensional manifold times a discrete set of points. The properties of the fermionic sector fix almost uniquely the Higgs structure. The simplest model corresponds to the case where the discrete set consists of three points and the Higgs fields are 16s × 16s and 16s × 16s. The requirement that the scalar potential for all the Higgs fields not vanish imposes strong restrictions on the vacuum expectation values of the Higgs fields and thus the fermion masses. We show that it is possible to remove these constraints by extending the number of discrete points to six and adding a singlet fermion and a 16s Higgs field. Both models are studied in detail.

Gauge unification in noncommutative geometry

Gauge unification is widely considered to be a desirable feature for extensions of the standard model. Unfortunately the standard model itself does not exhibit a unification of its running gauge couplings but it is required by grand unified theories as well as the noncommutative version of the standard model [2]. We will consider here the extension of the noncommutative standard model by vector...

Particle Physics Models, Grand Unification and Gravity in Non-Commutative Geometry

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 exper...

Noncommutative Geometry and the Standard Model with Neutrino Mixing

We show that allowing the metric dimension of a space to be independent of its KO-dimension and turning the finite noncommutative geometry F– whose product with classical 4-dimensional space-time gives the standard model coupled with gravity–into a space of KO-dimension 6 by changing the grading on the antiparticle sector into its opposite, allows to solve three problems of the previous noncomm...

Towards an Autonomous Formalism for Quantum Mechanics

A formalism is presented in which quantum particle dynamics can be developed on its own rather than ‘quantization’ of an underlying classical theory. It is proposed that the unification of probability and dynamics should be considered as the basic feature of quantum theory. Arguments are given to show that when such a unification is attempted at the configuration space level, the wave funtions ...

Stability of additive functional equation on discrete quantum semigroups

We construct  a noncommutative analog of additive functional equations on discrete quantum semigroups and show that this noncommutative functional equation has Hyers-Ulam stability on amenable discrete quantum semigroups. The discrete quantum semigroups that we consider in this paper are in the sense of van Daele, and the amenability is in the sense of Bèdos-Murphy-Tuset. Our main result genera...

Noncommutative geometry is based on an idea that an associative algebra can be regarded as " an algebra of functions on a noncommutative space ". The major contribution to noncommutative geometry was made by A. Connes, who, in particular, analyzed Yang-Mills theories on noncommutative spaces, using important notions that were introduced in his papers (connection, Chern character, etc). It was f...
