We complete the first stage of constructing a theory of fields not investigated before; these fields transform according to Lorentz group representations decomposable into an infinite direct sum of finite-dimensional irreducible…
This work investigates a quantum system described by a Hamiltonian operator in a two dimensional noncommutative space. The system consists of an electron subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field $\mathbf{B}$, coupled to a harmonic…
The aim of this work is to show, on the example of the behaviour of the spinless charged particle in the homogeneous electric field, that one can quantized the velocity of particle by the special gauge fixation. The work gives also the some…
We study two-dimensional Hamiltonians in phase space with noncommutativity both in coordinates and momenta. We consider the generator of rotations on the noncommutative plane and the Lie algebra generated by Hermitian rotationally invariant…
We realize noncommutative phase spaces as coadjoint orbits of extensions of the Aristotle group in a two-dimensional space. Through these constructions the momenta of the phase spaces do not commute due to the presence of a naturally…
Based on a fundamental symmetry between space, time, mass and charge, a series of group structures of physical interest is generated, ranging from C2 to E8. The most significant result of this analysis is a version of the Dirac equation…
We apply quantum group methods for noncommutative geometry to the $Z_2\times Z_2$ lattice to obtain a natural Dirac operator on this discrete space. This then leads to an interpretation of the Higgs fields as the discrete part of spacetime…
It has been almost one hundred years since Einstein formulated his special theory of relativity in 1905. He showed that the basic space-time symmetry is dictated by the Lorentz group. It is shown that this group of Lorentz transformations…
We propose a Lorentz-covariant Yang-Mills ``spin-gauge'' theory, where the function valued Pauli matrices play the role of a non-scalar Higgs-field. As symmetry group we choose $SU(2) \times U(1)$ of the 2-spinors describing…
In analogy to the harmonic analysis for the Poincar\'e group with its irreducible representations characterizing free particles, the harmonic analysis for a nonlinear spacetime model as homogenous space of the extended Lorentz group GL(C^2)…
We provide a self-contained introduction to the quantum group approach to noncommutative geometry as the next-to-classical effective geometry that might be expected from any successful quantum gravity theory. We focus particularly on a…
The famous equation $E=mc^2$ is a version of particle mass being essentially the magnitude of the (energy-)momentum four-vector in the setting of `relativistic' dynamics, which can be seen as dictated by the Poincar\'e symmetry adopted as…
We show that the cylindrical symmetry of the eigenvectors of the photon position operator with commuting components, x, reflects the E(2) symmetry of the photon little group. The eigenvectors of x form a basis of localized states that have…
Some very simple models of gauge systems with noncanonical symplectic structures having $sl(2,r)$ as the gauge algebra are given. The models can be interpreted as noncommutative versions of the usual $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ model of…
A general characterization of lower and upper threshold configurations for two particle reactions is determined under the assumptions that the single particle dispersion relations E(p) are rotationally invariant and monotonic in p, and that…
Invariance under time translation (or stationarity) is probably one of the most important assumptions made when investigating electromagnetic phenomena. Breaking this assumption is expected to open up novel possibilities and result in…
This paper follows recent steps towards a nonassociative quantum theory and points out the mathematical structure behind the proposed modifications to conventional quantum theory. An N=1 supersymmetry model and a strong force glueball…
Inserting a varying Lambda in Einstein's field equations can be made consistent with the Bianchi identities by allowing for torsion, without the need to add scalar field degrees of freedom. In the minimal such theory, Lambda is totally free…
We consider a quantum wire with two subbands of spin-polarized electrons in the presence of strong interactions. We focus on the quantum phase transition when the second subband starts to get filled as a function of gate voltage. Performing…
We show that a system of particles on the lowest Landau level can be coupled to a probe U(1) gauge field $\mathcal A_\mu$ in such a way that the theory is invariant under a noncommutative U(1) gauge symmetry. While the temporal component…
