We consider spinors on the total space of a Kaluza-Klein model with fuzzy sphere fibre and geometrically realised Dirac operator on the product. We show that a single massless spinor on the product appears on spacetime as multiplets of…
If Kaluza-Klein ideas were correct as an explanation of Yang-Mills and General Relativity on spacetime, the extra fibre geometry would have to be a sphere of constant size of the order of 10 Planck lengths, hence subject to quantum gravity…
U(n) Yang-Mills theory on the fuzzy sphere S^2_N is quantized using random matrix methods. The gauge theory is formulated as a matrix model for a single Hermitian matrix subject to a constraint, and a potential with two degenerate minima.…
We present a new model for Yang-Mills theory on the fuzzy sphere in which the configuration space of gauge fields is given by a coadjoint orbit. In the classical limit it reduces to ordinary Yang-Mills theory on the sphere. We find all…

We consider a U(2) Yang-Mills theory on M x S_F^2 where M is a Riemannian manifold and S_F^2 is the fuzzy sphere. Using essentially the representation theory of SU(2) we determine the most general SU(2)-equivariant gauge field on M x S_F^2.…

We consider certain vacua of four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theory with the same field content as the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, resulting from potentials which break the N=4 supersymmetry as well as its global SO(6) symmetry down…
We consider a U(2) Yang-Mills theory on M x S_F^2 where M is an arbitrary noncommutative manifold and S_F^2 is a fuzzy sphere spontaneously generated from a noncommutative U(N) Yang-Mills theory on M, coupled to a triplet of scalars in the…
We study the q-deformed fuzzy sphere, which is related to D-branes on SU(2) WZW models, for both real q and q a root of unity. We construct for both cases a differential calculus which is compatible with the star structure, study the…

Starting with a N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions with gauge group SU(3N) we perform an orbifold projection leading to a N=1 supersymmetric SU(N)^3 Yang-Mills theory with matter supermultiplets in bifundamental…
We examine in detail the higher spin fields which arise on the basic fuzzy sphere $S^4_N$ in the semi-classical limit. The space of functions can be identified with functions on classical $S^4$ taking values in a higher spin algebra…
As a first step towards a strong coupling expansion of Yang-Mills theory, the SU(2) Yang-Mills quantum mechanics of spatially constant gauge fields is investigated in the symmetric gauge, with the six physical fields represented in terms of…
We study the quantum geometry of the fuzzy sphere defined as the angular momentum algebra $[x_i,x_j]=2\imath\lambda_p \epsilon_{ijk}x_k$ modulo setting $\sum_i x_i^2$ to a constant, using a recently introduced 3D rotationally invariant…
We propose a Lorentz-covariant Yang-Mills ``spin-gauge'' theory, where the function valued Pauli matrices play the role of a non-scalar Higgs-field. As symmetry group we choose $SU(2) \times U(1)$ of the 2-spinors describing…

A geometrization of the Yang-Mills field, by which an SU(2) gauge theory becomes equivalent to a 3-space geometry - or optical system - is examined. In a first step, ambient space remains Euclidean and current problems on flat space can be…
We find new spontaneously generated fuzzy extra dimensions emerging from a certain deformation of $N=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory with cubic soft supersymmetry breaking and mass deformation terms. First, we determine a…
