Light-like $\kappa$-deformations and scalar field theory via Drinfeld twist
Abstract
In this article we will use the Drinfeld twist leading to light-like -deformations of Poincar\'e algebra. We shall apply the standard Hopf algebra methods in order to define the star-product, which shall be used to formulate a scalar field theory compatible with -Poincar\'e-Hopf algebra. Using this approach we show that there is no problem with formulating integration on -Minkowski space and no need for introducing a new measure. We have shown that the -product obtained from this twist enables us to define a free scalar field theory on -Minkowski space that is equivalent to a commutative one on a usual Minkowski space. We also discuss the interacting scalar field model compatible with -Poincar\'e-Hopf algebra.
