I give a summary review of the research program using noncommutative geometry as a framework to determine the structure of space-time. Classification of finite noncommutative spaces under few assumptions reveals why nature chose the…
We present a new geometry of spacetime where events may be positive dimensional. This geometry is obtained by applying the identity of indiscernibles, which is a fundamental principle of quantum statistics, to time. Quantum nonlocality…
A summary of noncommutative spectral geometry as an approach to unification is presented. The role of the doubling of the algebra, the seeds of quantization and some cosmological implications are briefly discussed.
In this paper I discuss connections between the noncommutative geometry approach to the standard model on one side, and the internal space coming from strings on the other. The standard model in noncommutative geometry is described via the…
The paper is dedicated to the close analogy between these two theories - some problems lying at the very root of Spectral Geometry are viewed in the context of Semiclassics, and vise versa. The treatment starts from a very basic level and…
A short introduction on elements of noncommutative geometry, which offers a purely geometric interpretation of the Standard Model and implies a higher derivative gravitational theory, is presented. Physical consequences of almost…
We determine the scaling properties of geometric operators such as lengths, areas, and volumes in models of higher derivative quantum gravity by renormalizing appropriate composite operators. We use these results to deduce the fractal…
The Einstein action for the gravitational field has some properties which make of it, after quantization, a rare prototype of systems with quantum configurations that do not have a classical analogue. Assuming spherical symmetry in order to…
We review the basic properties of effective actions of families of theories (i.e., the actions depending on additional non-perturbative moduli along with perturbative couplings), and their description in terms of operators (called…
Noncommutativity is an idea dating back to the early times of Quantum Mechanics and that string theory induced noncommutative (NC) geometry which provides an effective framework to study short distance spacetime dynamics. Also, string…
The main objective of this manuscript is to investigate the bouncing cosmology in the background of $f(\mathcal{Q})$ gravity, where $\mathcal{Q}$ defines the non-metricity. For this purpose, we use the reconstruction approach and consider a…
A precise interpretation of the Universe wave function is forbidden in the spirit of the Copenhagen School since a precise notion of measure operation cannot be satisfactorily defined. Here we propose a Bohmian interpretation of the…
In this paper we construct a path integral formulation of quantum mechanics on noncommutative phase-space. We first map the system to an equivalent system on the noncommutative plane. Then by applying the formalism of representing a quantum…
The dynamics of the expanding universe is analyzed in terms of the quantum geometrodynamical model. It is shown that the equations of quantum theory in the form of the eigenvalues equation similar to the stationary Schr\"{o}dinger equation…
The evolution of the universe is studied in exactly solvable dynamical quantum model with the Robertson-Walker metric. It is shown that the equation of motion which describes the expansion or contraction of the universe can be represented…
We study the commutation relations, uncertainty relations and spectra of position and momentum operators within the framework of quantum group % symmetric Heisenberg algebras and their (Bargmann-) Fock representations. As an effect of the…
We introduce fractional flat space, described by a continuous geometry with constant non-integer Hausdorff and spectral dimensions. This is the analogue of Euclidean space, but with anomalous scaling and diffusion properties. The basic tool…
Let $(G_\epsilon)_{\epsilon>0}$ be a family of '$\epsilon$-thin' Riemannian manifolds modeled on a finite metric graph $G$, for example, the $\epsilon$-neighborhood of an embedding of $G$ in some Euclidean space with straight edges. We…
In this Thesis we study quantum corrections to the classical dynamics for mean values in field theory. To that end we make use of the formalism of the closed time path effective action to get real and causal equations of motion. We…
We construct the covariant effective field theory of gravity as an expansion in inverse powers of the Planck mass, identifying the leading and next-to-leading quantum corrections. We determine the form of the effective action for the cases…
