This thesis is devoted to the study of Quantum Field Theories (QFT) on fuzzy spaces. Fuzzy spaces are approximations to the algebra of functions of a continuous space by a finite matrix algebra. In the limit of infinitely large matrices the…
We construct a fuzzy $S^4$, utilizing the fact that ${\bf CP}^3$ is an $S^2$ bundle over $S^4$. We find that a fuzzy $S^4$ can be described by a block-diagonal form whose embedding square matrix represents a fuzzy ${\bf CP}^3$. We discuss…
This is a short review of recent work on fuzzy spaces in their relation to the M(atrix) theory and the quantum Hall effect. We give an introduction to fuzzy spaces and how the limit of large matrices is obtained. The complex projective…
Fuzzy spaces are obtained by quantizing adjoint orbits of compact semi-simple Lie groups. Fuzzy spheres emerge from quantizing S^2 and are associated with the group SU(2) in this manner. They are useful for regularizing quantum field…

In M(atrix) theory, there exist membranes and longitudinal 5-branes (L5-branes) as extended objects. Transverse components of these brane solutions are known to be described by fuzzy CP^k (k=1,2), where k=1 and k=2 correspond to spherical…

We point out that if spatial information is encoded through linear operators $X_i$, or `infinite-dimensional matrices' with an involution $X_i^*=X_i$ then these $X_i$ can only describe either continuous, discrete or certain "fuzzy"…
We study the phase diagram of scalar field theory on a three dimensional Euclidean spacetime whose spatial component is a fuzzy sphere. The corresponding model is an ordinary one-dimensional matrix model deformed by terms involving fixed…
It is generally believed that the space has a nontrivial structure which is apparent on the order of the Planck length. There is a class of models of three-dimensional quantum spaces constructed using different mathematical tools. Also,…
We examine gauge theories on Minkowski space-time times fuzzy coset spaces. This means that the extra space dimensions instead of being a continuous coset space S/R are a corresponding finite matrix approximation. The gauge theory defined…
