Description

The aim of this lecture is to give a intuitive introduction to noncommutative geometry and explain how it allows to unify general relativity with the SU(2)xU(1)xSU(3) model of electro-weak and strong forces. We will review the phenomenological constraints resulting from this unification, in particular on the Higgs mass.
