Wave Equations on q-Minkowski space

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

We give a systematic account of the exterior algebra of forms on q-Minkowski space, introducing the q-exterior derivative, q-Hodge star operator, q-coderivative, q-Laplace-Beltrami operator and the q-Lie-derivative. With these tools at hand, we then give a detailed exposition of the q-d'Alembert and q-Maxwell equation. For both equations we present a q-momentum-indexed family of plane wave solutions. We also discuss the gauge freedom of the q-Maxwell field and give a q-spinor analysis of the q-field strength tensor.
