Renormalizability conditions for almost-commutative geometries
Abstract
We formulate conditions for almost-commutative (spacetime) manifolds under which the asymptotically expanded spectral action is renormalizable. These conditions are of a graph-theoretical nature, involving the Krajewski diagrams that classify such geometries. This applies in particular to the Standard Model of particle physics, giving a graph-theoretical argument for its renormalizability. A promising potential application is in the selection of physical (renormalizable) field theories described by almost-commutative geometries, thereby going beyond the Standard Model.
