Quantum Spaces

New insights due to the confrontation between Alain Connes' non commutative approach to the standard model and the discovery of the non commutative renormalization group Confirmation of noncommutative geometry as an increasingly useful tool for the description of intricated condensed matter phenomena Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Klappentext

This book confirms noncommutative geometry as an increasingly useful tool for the description of intricate condensed matter phenomena. It describes the striking progress recently made in gathering all the interactions and fields of the standard model into a non-commutative geometry on a simple internal space. Coverage also details the very recent technique of renormalization of quantum field theories on non-commutative space-time.
