Noncommutative geometry, in its many incarnations, appears at the crossroad of various researches in theoretical and mathematical physics: from models of quantum space-time (with or without breaking of Lorentz symmetry) to loop gravity and…
In this article the geometry of quantum gravity is quantized in the sense of being noncommutative (first quantization) but it is also quantized in the sense of being emergent (second quantization). A new mechanism for quantum geometry is…
In this paper we construct a non-commutative geometry over a configuration space of gauge connections and show that it gives rise to a candidate for an interacting, non-perturbative quantum gauge theory coupled to a fermionic field on a…
The theory of strong interactions, QCD, is described in terms of a few parameters, namely the strong coupling constant alpha_s and the quark masses. We show how these parameters can be determined reliably using computer simulations of QCD…
We present a study of the QCD interactions which do not conserve the chirality of quarks. These non-perturbative forces are responsible for the violation of the U_A(1) charge conservation and for the breaking of chiral symmetry. From a…
The representation of quark distribution and fragmentation functions in terms of non-local operators is combined with a simple spectator model. This allows us to estimate these functions for the nucleon and the pion ensuring correct…
Recently there has been progress in the understanding of the confinement mechanism in Landau gauge QCD. The emerging dynamical description in terms of the underlying gauge dependent degrees of freedom goes beyond the static confinement in…
Classical differential geometry can be encoded in spectral data, such as Connes' spectral triples, involving supersymmetry algebras. In this paper, we formulate non-commutative geometry in terms of supersymmetric spectral data. This leads…
We show that the noncommutative spheres of Connes and Landi are quantum homogeneous spaces for certain compact quantum groups. We give a general construction of homogeneous spaces which support noncommutative spin geometries.
Noncommutative geometry, an offshoot of string theory, replaces point-like particles by smeared objects. These local effects have led to wormhole solutions in a semiclassical setting, but it has also been claimed that the noncommutative…
In this review, we trace the evolution of the quantum spin-wave theory treating non-collinear spin configurations. Non-collinear spin configurations are consequences of the frustration created by competing interactions. They include simple…
Using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, we study nuclear matter from the point of view of quark degrees of freedom. Performing a re-definition of the scalar field in matter, we transform QMC to a QHD-type model with a non-linear scalar…
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…
A detailed investigation of the low-energy chiral expansion is presented within a model truncation of QCD. The truncation allows for a phenomenological description of the quark-quark interaction in a framework which maintains the global…
Interactions of charmed and strange mesons with baryonic matter can be calculated in the nonrelativistic quark potential model. For KN scattering data exists, and the theoretical results for S-waves are in approximate agreement with…
Quark models have a more than 60-year history and through this time they served as a powerful investigation and prediction tool in hadronic physics. In recent years, a lot of new experimental information has been arriving on hadrons that do…
In this note the noncommutative geometry is interpreted as a functor, whose range is a family of the operator algebras. Some examples are given and a program is sketched.
We consider a twisted version of quantum groups corepresentations. This generalization amounts to include in the theory the case where quantum space coordinates and its endomorphism matrix entries belong to a non-commutative quadratic…
Noncommutative spectral geometry succeeds in explaining the physics of the Standard Model of electroweak and strong interactions in all its details as determined by experimental data. Moreover, by construction the theory lives at very high…
We discuss the transformation of the QCD temporal-gauge Hamiltonian to a representation in which it can be expressed as a functional of gauge-invariant quark and gluon fields. We show how this objective can be realized by implementing the…
