We extend the definition of the star product introduced by Lunin and Maldacena to study marginal deformations of N=4 SYM. The essential difference from the latter is that instead of considering U(1)xU(1) non-R-symmetry, with charges in a…
A proposed definition is given for the quantization of a Poisson algebra, taking the quantum product to be a geodesic on the manifold of associative products.
Let $G$ be a Poisson Lie group and $\g$ its Lie bialgebra. Suppose that $\g$ is a group Lie bialgebra. This means that there is an action of a discrete group $\Gamma$ on $G$ deforming the Poisson structure into coboundary equivalent ones.…
Deformation theory of associative algebras and in particular of Poisson algebras is reviewed. The role of an almost contraction leading to a canonical solution of the corresponding Maurer-Cartan equation is noted. This role is reminiscent…
For a connected real Lie group $G$ we consider the canonical standard-ordered star product arising from the canonical global symbol calculus based on the half-commutator connection of $G$. This star product trivially converges on polynomial…
In this work we investigate generalized kappa-deformed spaces. We develop a systematic method for constructing realizations of noncommutative (NC) coordinates as formal power series in the Weyl algebra. All realizations are related by a…
We analyze the star product induced on the algebra of functions on R^3 by a suitable reduction of the Moyal product defined on F(R^4). This is obtained through the identification of R^3 with the dual of a three dimensional Lie algebra. We…
The product of quantum mechanics is defined as the ordinary multiplication followed by the application of superoperator that orders involved operators. The operator version of Poisson bracket is defined being the Lie bracket which…
A simple iterative procedure is suggested for the deformation quantization of (irregular) Poisson brackets associated to the classical Yang-Baxter equation. The construction is shown to admit a pure algebraic reformulation giving the…
We study star product algebras of analytic functions for which the power series defining the products converge absolutely. Such algebras arise naturally in deformation quantization theory and in noncommutative quantum field theory. We…
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…
We study deformations of invertible bimodules and the behavior of Picard groups under deformation quantization. While K_0-groups are known to be stable under formal deformations of algebras, Picard groups may change drastically. We identify…
The paper is devoted to peculiarities of the deformation quantization in the algebro-geometric context. A direct application of the formality theorem to an algebraic Poisson manifold gives a canonical sheaf of categories deforming coherent…
We compute explicitly a star product on the Minkowski space whose Poisson bracket is quadratic. This star product corresponds to a deformation of the conformal spacetime, whose big cell is the Minkowski spacetime. The description of…
Using the formalism of quantizers and dequantizers, we show that the characters of irreducible unitary representations of finite and compact groups provide kernels for star products of complex-valued functions of the group elements.…
We show that the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the stargenvalue equation can be completely expressed in terms of the corresponding eigenvalue problem for the quantum Hamiltonian. Our method makes use of a Weyl-type representation of the…
The Kontsevich deformation quantization combines Poisson dynamics, noncommutative geometry, number theory, and calculus of oriented graphs. To manage the algebra and differential calculus of series of weighted graphs, we present software…
For every formal power series $B=B_0 + \lambda B_1 + O(\lambda^2)$ of closed two-forms on a manifold $Q$ and every value of an ordering parameter $\kappa\in [0,1]$ we construct a concrete star product $\star^B_\kappa$ on the cotangent…
The variant of Fedosov construction based on fairly general fiberwise product in the Weyl bundle is studied. We analyze generalized star products of functions, of sections of endomorphisms bundle, and those generating deformed bimodule…
The Basic Universal Deformation Formula is proven and applied to show that Weyl algebras, which encode Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, are effective deformations of polynomial rings, and that uncertainty is necessary for stability.…
