Noncommutative Gravity and the *-Lie algebra of diffeomorphisms

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We construct functions and tensors on noncommutative spacetime by systematically twisting the corresponding commutative structures. The study of the deformed diffeomorphisms (and Poincare) Lie algebra allows to construct a noncomutative theory of gravity.
