Higher-derivative gauge theories from noncommutative geometry
  In this short note we review the interpretation of the spectral action for the Yang-Mills system in noncommutative geometry as a higher-derivative gauge theory, adopting an asymptotic expansion in a cutoff parameter. We recall our previous results on superrenormalizability of the resulting higher-derivative Yang-Mills gauge theory and confront this with [6] where these very results were erroneously claimed to be incorrect. We explain how their approach differs from ours, thus clarifying the apparent mismatch.
