One of the key conceptual challenges in quantum gravity is to understand how quantum theory should modify the very notion of spacetime. One way to investigate this question is to study the alternatives to Schr\"odinger quantum mechanics.…

The Moyal equation describes the evolution of the Wigner function of a quantum system in the phase space. The right-hand side of the equation contains an infinite series with coefficients proportional to powers of the Planck constant. There…

We study the Moyal commutators and their expectation values between vacuum states and non-vacuum states for noncommutative scalar field theory. For noncommutative $\phi^{\star4}$ scalar field theory, we derive its energy-momentum tensor…
