We examine gauge theories on Minkowski space-time times fuzzy coset spaces. This means that the extra space dimensions instead of being a continuous coset space S/R are a corresponding finite matrix approximation. The gauge theory defined on this non-commutative setup is reduced to four dimensions and the rules of the corresponding dimensional reduction are established. We investigate in particular the case of the fuzzy sphere including the dimensional reduction of fermion fields.

Unified theories from fuzzy extra dimensions

The present work shows that one can apply the CSDR ideas in the case where the compact part of the space‐time is a finite approximation of the homogeneous space S / R, i.e. a fuzzy coset.

Higher‐Dimensional Unification with continuous and fuzzy coset spaces as extra dimensions

We first review the Coset Space Dimensional Reduction (CSDR) programme and present the best model constructed so far based on the N=1 , 10‐dimensional E8 gauge theory reduced over the nearly‐Kähler…

Equivariant Reduction of Gauge Theories over Fuzzy Extra Dimensions

In SU(N) Yang-Mills theories on a manifold M, which are suitably coupled to a set of scalars, fuzzy spheres may be generated as extra dimensions by spontaneous symmetry breaking. This process results…

Gravity as a Gauge Theory on Three-Dimensional Noncommutative spaces

We plan to translate the successful description of three-dimensional gravity as a gauge theory in the noncommutative framework, making use of the covariant coordinates. We consider two specific…

Noncommutative vector bundles over fuzzy CP N and their covariant derivatives

We generalise the construction of fuzzy CP N in a manner that allows us to access all noncommutative equivariant complex vector bundles over this space. We give a simplified construction of…

The instability of intersecting fuzzy spheres

We discuss the classical and quantum stability of general configurations representing many fuzzy spheres in dimensionally reduced Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons models with and without supersymmetry. By…

Gauge Theories: From Kaluza-Klein to noncommutative gravity theories

Besides the particle physics models discussed above, gravity theories as gauge theories are reviewed and then, the whole methodology is modified in the case that the background spacetimes are noncommutative.

Gauge Theories on Fuzzy Spaces and Gravity

We start by briefly reviewing the description of gravity theories as gauge theories in four dimensions. More specifically we recall the procedure leading to the results of General Relativity and Weyl…

Higher-Dimensional Unified Theories with Fuzzy Extra Dimensions ⋆

Theories defined in higher than four dimensions have been used in various frameworks and have a long and interesting history. Here we review certain attempts, developed over the last years, towards…

Gauge Theories with Fuzzy Extra Dimensions and Noncommutative Vortices and Fluxons

A U (2) Yang-Mills theory on the space ℳ × S2F is considered, where it is assumed that ℳ is an arbitrary noncommutative space and S2F is a fuzzy sphere spontaneously generated from a noncommutative…

In the framework of noncommutative geometry we describe spinor fields with nonvanishing winding number on a truncated (fuzzy) sphere. The corresponding field theory actions conserve all basic…

Enveloping algebra-valued gauge transformations for non-abelian gauge groups on non-commutative spaces

Abstract. An enveloping algebra-valued gauge field is constructed, its components are functions of the Lie algebra-valued gauge field and can be constructed with the Seiberg-Witten map. This allows…
