We consider Yang-Mills theories formulated on a non-commutative space-time described by a space-time dependent anti-symmetric field $\theta^{\mu\nu}(x)$. Using Seiberg-Witten map techniques we derive the leading order operators for the…
We review the status of (scalar) quantum field theory on curved spacetimes using a novel formulation in terms of non linear functionals over the smooth configuration fields. In particular, this entails also a new foundation of locally…
We study perturbative aspects of noncommutative field theories. This work is arranged in two parts. First, we review noncommutative field theories in general and discuss both canonical and path integral quantization methods. In the second…
A new renormalization scheme for theories with nontrivial internal symmetry is proposed. The scheme is regularization independent and respects the symmetry requirements.
We extend the complete Mellin (CM) representation of Feynman amplitudes to the non-commutative quantum field theories. This representation is a versatile tool. It provides a quick proof of meromorphy of Feynman amplitudes in parameters such…
A covariant quantization method is developed for the off-shell superparticle in 10 dimensions. On-shell it is consistent with lightcone quantization, while off-shell it gives a noncommutative superspace that realizes non-linearly a hidden…
It is natural to ask whether non-commutative geometry plays a role in four dimensional physics. By performing explicit computations in various toy models, we show that quantum effects lead to violations of Lorentz invariance at the level of…
We define a theory of noncommutative general relativity for canonical noncommutative spaces. We find a subclass of general coordinate transformations acting on canonical noncommutative spacetimes to be volume-preserving transformations.…
We propose a type of non-anticommutative superspace, with the interesting property of relating to Lee-Wick type of higher derivatives theories, which are known for their interesting properties, and have lead to proposals of…
We consider a deformed superspace in which the coordinates \theta do not anticommute, but satisfy a Clifford algebra. We present results on the properties of N=1/2 supersymmetric theories of chiral superfields in deformed superspace, taking…
We consider the noncommutative extension of the BF theory in two spacetime dimensions. We show that the introduction of the noncommutative parameter \theta_{\mu\nu}, already at first order in the analytical sector, induces infinitely many…
We study the variational equations for solitons in noncommutative scalar field theories in an even number of spatial dimensions. We prove the existence of spherically symmetric solutions for a sufficiently large noncommutativity parameter…
We study properties of a scalar quantum field theory on two-dimensional noncommutative space-times. Contrary to the common belief that noncommutativity of space-time would be a key to remove the ultraviolet divergences, we show that field…
We write down scalar field theory and gauge theory on two-dimensional noncommutative spaces ${\cal M}$ with nonvanishing curvature and non-constant non-commutativity. Usual dynamics results upon taking the limit of ${\cal M}$ going to i) a…
Candidates for renormalisable gauge theory models on Moyal spaces constructed recently have non trivial vacua. We show that these models support vacuum states that are invariant under both global rotations and symplectic isomorphisms which…
As a unified theory of integer and fractional quantum Hall plateau transitions, a nonperturbative theory of the two-parameter scaling renormalization group function is presented. By imposing global symmetries known as ``the law of…
We argue that scale invariance is not anomalous in quantum field theory, provided it is broken cosmologically. We consider a locally scale invariant extension of the Standard Model of particle physics and argue that it fits both the…
We study the non-linear background field redefinitions arising at the quantum level in a spontaneously broken effective gauge field theory. The non-linear field redefinitions are crucial for the symmetric (i.e. fulfilling all the relevant…
A new approach to constructing the noncommutative scalar field theory is presented. Not only between x_i and p_j, we impose commutation relations between x_is as well as p_js, and give a new representation of x_i,p_js. We carry out both…
Starting from the concept of the universal exterior algebra in non-commutative differential geometry we construct differential forms on the quantum phase-space of an arbitrary system. They bear the same natural relationship to quantum…
