We consider astrophysical objects such as main-sequence stars, white-dwarfs and neutron stars in a noncommutative context. Noncommutativity is implemented via a deformed dispersion relation $E^{2}=p^{2}c^{2}(1+\lambda E)^{2}+m^{2}c^{4}$…

We extend and strengthen no-go results on pointwise-defined quantum fields to cover general spinors. We show that the weak continuity of quantum fields rules out equal-time canonical conjugate (anti)commutation relations in globally…

We investigate whether commutativity is necessary to represent relativistic locality for localization observables of relativistic quantum systems in Minkowski spacetime. A well known no-go theorem by Halvorson and Clifton shows that…

In this paper, we will study non-commutative corrections in the metric tensor for the G\"{o}del-type universe, a model that has as its main characteristic the possibility of violation of causality, allowing therefore time travel. We also…

Modern cosmology has now emerged as a testing ground for theories beyond the standard model of particle physics. In this paper, we consider quantum fluctuations of the inflaton scalar field on certain noncommutative spacetimes and look for…

The IR/UV mixing and the violation of unitarity are two of the most intriguing aspects of noncommutative quantum field theories. In this paper the relation between these two phenomena is explained and established. We start out by showing…

We study general properties of certain Lorentz invariant noncommutative quantum field theories proposed in the literature. We show that causality in those theories does not hold, in contrast to the canonical noncommutative field theory with…

We study the perturbative unitarity of noncommutative scalar field theories. Field theories with space-time noncommutativity do not have a unitary S-matrix. Field theories with only space noncommutativity are perturbatively unitary. This…

We give simple representations for quantum theories in which the position commutators are non vanishing constants. A particular representation reproduces results found using the Moyal star product. The notion of exact localization being…

We study planar noncommutative theories such that the spatial coordinates ${\hat x}_1$, ${\hat x}_2$ verify a commutation relation of the form: $[{\hat x}_1, {\hat x}_2] = i \theta ({\hat x}_1,{\hat x}_2)$. Starting from the operatorial…
