Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
The unification of quantum field theory models and gravity is still not done, we like to show why there are serious problems and indicate the various directions which have been pushed forward recently.
Examination topics
Differential geometry has been generalized to noncommutative geometry.
For field theories in four space-time dimensions we have to rely on renormalizability, both together lead to noncommutative quantum fields.
For field theories in four space-time dimensions we have to rely on renormalizability, both together lead to noncommutative quantum fields.

Next we will introduce differential caluli and define Fuzzy spaces and models over them.
We introduce ideas of noncommutative geometry, modules and the spectral action principle.
Renormalization and the question of renormalizability select particular models.
We introduce the renormalization group and the beta function.
We review approches to quantize gravity and show how one may include gravity effects into
quantum field theories.
