Connes' noncommutative approach to the standard model of electromagnetic, weak and strong forces is sketched as well as its unification with general relativity.
This is a compilation of some well known propositions of Alain Connes concerning the use of noncommutative geometry in mathematical physics.
The purpose of this short note was to outline the current status, then in 2011, of some research programs aiming at a categorification of parts of A.Connes' non-commutative geometry and to provide an outlook on some possible subsequent…
This text is an introduction to a few selected areas of Alain Connes' noncommutative geometry written for the volume of the school/conference "Noncommutative Geometry 2005" held at IPM Tehran. It is an expanded version of my lectures which…
In [1], Connes presented axioms governing noncommutative geometry. He went on to claim that when specialised to the commutative case, these axioms recover spin or spin^c geometry depending on whether the geometry is ''real'' or not. We…
We present a survey of the application of Cones' Non-Commutative Geometry to gravitation. Bases of the theory and Euclidian gravity models are reviewed. Then we discuss the problem of a Lorentzian generalization of the theory and review…
Cette these etudie l'aspect metrique de la geometrie non commutative a travers la formulation de Connes de la distance entre etats d'une algebre. Sont etudies des exemples d'espaces finis et le modele standard ou le champs de Higgs…
Application of the noncommutative geometry to several physical models is considered.
We try to give a pedagogical introduction to Connes' derivation of the standard model of electro-magnetic, weak and strong forces from gravity.
The works of R. Descartes, I. M. Gelfand and A. Grothendieck have convinced us that commutative rings should be thought of as rings of functions on some appropriate (commutative) spaces. If we try to push this notion forward we reach the…
I discuss examples where basic structures from Connes' noncommutative geometry naturally arise in quantum field theory. The discussion is based on recent work, partly collaboration with J. Mickelsson.
We investigate the geode and some of its generalizations from the point of view on noncommutative symmetric functions.
In this survey, written for the proceedings of the VII meeting of the CNTA held in May 2002 in Montreal, we describe how Connes' theory of spectral triples provides a unified view, via noncommutative geometry, of the archimedean and the…
We briefly review ideas about ``noncommutativity of space-time'' and approaches toward a corresponding theory of gravity.
For almost twenty years, a search for a Lorentzian version of the well-known Connes' distance formula has been undertaken. Several authors have contributed to this search, providing important milestones, and the time has now come to put…
This is a review of explicit computations of Connes distance in noncommutative geometry, covering finite dimensional spectral triples, almost-commutative geometries, and spectral triples on the algebra of compact operators. Several…
Quantum groups and quantum homogeneous spaces - developed by several authors since the 80's - provide a large class of examples of algebras which for many reasons we interpret as `coordinate algebras' over noncommutative spaces. This…
The restrictions imposed on the strong force in the `non-commutative standard model' are examined. It is concluded that given the framework of non-commutative geometry and assuming the electroweak sector of the standard model many details…
A consequence of the Gauss Bonnet theorem is interpreted in term of operator theory by Alain Connes in his book, Non Commutative geometry. In this note we explain in details about his method. We also introduce an operator theoretical nature…
We prove that the non-commutative perspective of an operator convex function is the unique extension of the corresponding commutative perspective that preserves homogeneity and convexity.
