Abstract

We introduce new κ\kappa-star product describing the multiplication of quantized κ\kappa-deformed free fields. The κ\kappa-deformation of local free quantum fields originates from two sources: noncommutativity of space-time and the κ\kappa-deformation of field oscillators algebra - we relate these two deformations. We demonstrate that for suitable choice of κ\kappa-deformed field oscillators algebra the κ\kappa-deformed version of microcausality condition is satisfied, and it leads to the deformation of the Pauli-Jordan commutation function defined by the κ\kappa-deformed mass shell. We show by constructing the κ\kappa-deformed Fock space that the use of κ\kappa-deformed oscillator algebra permits to preserve the bosonic statistics of n-particle states. The proposed star product is extended to the product of nn fields, which for n=4n=4 defines the interaction vertex in perturbative description of noncommutative quantum λϕ4\lambda\phi^4 field theory. It appears that the classical fourmomentum conservation law is satisfied at the interaction vertices.
