In the noncommutative geometry approach to the standard model, an extra scalar field - initially suggested by particle physicist to stabilize the electroweak vacuum - makes the computation of the Higgs mass compatible with the 126 GeV…
We review the noncommutative approach to the standard model. We start with the introduction if the mathematical concepts necessary for the definition of noncommutative spaces, and manifold in particular. This defines the framework of…
We propose a minimal unified model of the electroweak interactions without a Higgs particle in the final physical spectrum. This is achieved through adding a nonlinear constraint for the Higgs field in the Lagrangian in which the field's…
Noncommutative geometry applied to the standard model of electroweak and strong interactions was shown to produce fuzzy relations among masses and gauge couplings. We refine these relations and show then that they are exhaustive.
The algebra of non-commutative differential geometry (NCG) on the discrete space $M_4\times Z\ma{N}$ previously proposed by the present author is improved to give the consistent explanation of the generalized gauge field as the generalized…
Gauge invariance is a powerful tool to determine the dynamical forces among the fundamental constituents of matter. The particle content, structure and symmetries of the Standard Model Lagrangian are discussed. Special emphasis is given to…
The Connes and Lott reformulation of the strong and electroweak model represents a promising application of noncommutative geometry. In this scheme the Higgs field naturally appears in the theory as a particular `gauge boson', connected to…
We study the electroweak interactions within the standard electroweak theory in the case where the Higgs particle is heavy, namely, $M_H \leq 1\;TeV$. By integrating out the Higgs boson to one loop we find the complete effective lagrangian,…
Sogami recently proposed the new idea to express Higgs particle as a kind of gauge particle by prescribing the generalized covariant derivative with gauge and Higgs fields operating on quark and lepton fields. The field strengths for both…
A natural extension of the standard model within non-commutative geometry is presented. The geometry determines its Higgs sector. This determination is fuzzy, but precise enough to be incompatible with experiment.
Present data, both from direct Higgs search and from analysis of electroweak data, are starting to become rather restrictive on the possible values for the mass of the standard model Higgs. We discuss a new physics scenario based on a model…
We study a non-commutative generalization of the standard electroweak model proposed by Balakrishna, Gursey and Wali [ Phys.Lett. B254(1991)430] that is formulated in terms of the derivations Der_2(M_3) of a three-dimensional representation…
We discuss an alternative to the Higgs mechanism which leads to gauge invariant masses for the electroweak bosons. The key idea is to reformulate the gauge invariance principle which, instead of being applied as usual at the level of the…
Noncommutative geometry provides both a unified description of the Standard Model of particle physics together with Einstein-Hilbert action (in euclidean signature) and some tools to go beyond the Standard Model. In this paper, we extend to…
In the general Two-Higgs Doublet Model it has been shown that the Higgs potential can be expressed in terms of gauge-independent quantities. In particular, stability, electroweak symmetry breaking, and CP symmetry can be understood in a…
We consider the standard model in the formulationo of non-commutative geometry, for a Euclidean space-time consisting of two copies. The electroweak scale is set by the vacuum expectation value of a scalar field and is undetermined at the…
We present a general formalism based on the framework of non-commutative geometry, suitable to the study the standard model of electroweak interactions, as well as that of more general gauge theories. Left- and right-handed chiral fields…
A model for strong, electroweak and gravitational interactions based on the local symmetry group $G=SU(3)\times SU(2)_{L}\times U(1)\times C$ where $C$ is the local conformal symmetry group is proposed. The natural minimal $G$-invariant…
The Higgs mechanism gives mass to Yang-Mills gauge bosons. According to the conventional wisdom, this happens through the spontaneous breaking of gauge symmetry. Yet, gauge symmetries merely reflect a redundancy in the state description and…
We briefly sketch the noncommutative geometry approach to the Standard Model, with attention to what can be inferred about particle masses.
