Abstract
The standard model fermion spectrum, including a right handed neutrino,
can be obtained as a zeremode of the Dirac operator on a space
which is the product of complex projective spaces of complex dimension
two and three. The construction requires the introduction of topologically
non-trivial background gauge fields. By borrowing from ideas in Connes'
non-commutative geometry and making the complex spaces 'fuzzy' a matrix
approximation to the fuzzy space allows for three generations to
emerge. The generations are associated with three copies of space-time.
Higgs' fields and Yukawa couplings can be accommodated in the usual
way.
