Free particle on noncommutative plane -- a coherent state path integral approach

Mathematical Physics 2008-12-19 v1 High Energy Physics - Theory math.MP

Abstract

We formulate the coherent state path integral on a two dimensional noncommutative plane using the fact that noncommuative quantum mechanics can be viewed as a quantum system on the Hilbert space of Hilbert-Schmidt operators acting on noncommutative configuration space. The propagation kernel for the free particle shows ultra-violet cutoff which agrees with the earlier investigations made in the literature but the approach differs substantially from the earlier studies.
