Description
Jordan algebras provide suitable ground to formalize properties of a finite dimensional quantum geometry.
Recently M. Dubois-Violette proposed an interpretation both of quark-lepton symmetry and of the existence of three generations of particles in terms of rapresentations of the exceptional Jordan algebra.
During this talk I shall review such a theory and then present some recent results in the thoery of connections on Jordan modules.
