Noncommutative three-dimensional gravity can be described in terms of a noncommutative Chern-Simons theory. We extend this structure and also propose an action for gravitational fields on an even dimensional noncommutative space. The action…

Noncommutative solitons are easier to find in a noncommutative field theory. Similarly, the one-loop quantum corrections to the mass of a noncommutative soliton are easier to compute, in a real scalar theory in 2+1 dimensions. We carry out…
