Phase Space Non-commutativity and its Stability

High Energy Physics - Theory 2018-08-31 v2

Abstract

We consider a generalised non-commutative space-time in which non-commutativity is extended to all phase space variables. If strong enough, non-commutativity can affect stability of the system. We perform stability analysis on a couple of simple examples and show that a system can be stabilised by introducing quartic interactions provided they satisfy phase-space copositivity. In order to conduct perturbative analysis of these systems one can use either canonical methods or phase-space path integral methods which we present in some detail.
