Quantum field theory in curved spacetime is perhaps the most reliable framework in which one can investigate quantum effects in the presence of strong gravitational fields. Nevertheless, it is often studied by means of perturbative…
We show that the simplest non commutative renormalizable field theory, the $\phi^4$ model on four dimensional Moyal space with harmonic potential is asymptotically safe to all orders in perturbation theory
We consider the one-loop renormalization of dimension four composite operators and the energy-momentum tensor in noncommutative \phi^4 scalar field theory. Proper operator bases are constructed and it is proved that the bare composite…
In the recent years, field theory on non-commutative (NC) spaces has attracted a lot of attention. Most literature on this subject deals with perturbation theory, although the latter runs into grave problems beyond one loop. Here we present…
We review the techniques used to renormalize quantum field theories at several loop orders. This includes the techniques to systematically extract the infinities in a Feynman integral and the implementation of the algorithm within computer…
We study perturbative aspects of noncommutative field theories. This work is arranged in two parts. First, we review noncommutative field theories in general and discuss both canonical and path integral quantization methods. In the second…

We obtain the renormalized equations of motion for matter and semi-classical gravity in an inhomogeneous space-time. We use the functional Schrodinger picture and a simple Gaussian approximation to analyze the time evolution of the…
The flow equations of the renormalization group allow to analyse the perturbative $n$-point functions of renormalizable quantum filed theories. Rigorous bounds implying renormalizability permit to control large momentum behaviour, infrared…
We examine the hypothesis that space-time is a product of a continuous four-dimensional manifold times a finite space. A new tensorial notation is developed to present the various constructs of noncommutative geometry. In particular, this…
Noncommutative field theories are a class of theories beyond the standard model of elementary particle physics. Their importance may be summarized in two facts. Firstly as field theories on noncommutative spacetimes they come with natural…
We exploit the reparametrization symmetry of a relativistic free particle to impose a gauge condition which upon quantization implies space-time noncommutativity. We show that there is an algebraic map from this gauge back to the standard…
Irreducibility of the set of quantum field operators has been proved in noncommutative quantum field theory in the general case when time does not commute with spatial variables.
General aspects of the quantization of field theories non-local in time are discussed. The path integral on the basis of Schwinger's action principle and the Bjorken-Johnson-Low prescription, which helps to recover the canonical structure…
The quantum affine $\CU_q (\hat{sl(2)}) $ symmetry is studied when $q^2$ is an even root of unity. The structure of this algebra allows a natural generalization of N=2 supersymmetry algebra. In particular it is found that the momentum…
Conventional quantization of covariant scalar field models $\phi^4_n$, for spacetime dimensions $n\ge5$ are trivial, and this may also be true for $n=4$ as well. However, an alternative ${\cal O}(\hbar)$ counterterm leads to nontrivial…
The groupoid approach to noncommutative unification of general relativity with quantum mechanics is compared with the canonical gravity quantization. It is shown that by restricting the corresponding noncommutative algebra to its…
The aim of this paper is to describe how to use regularization and renormalization to construct a perturbative quantum field theory from a Lagrangian. We first define renormalizations and Feynman measures, and show that although there need…
Using the recently introduced parametric representation of non-commutative quantum field theory, we implement here the dimensional regularization and renormalization of the vulcanized $\Phi^{\star 4}_4$ model on the Moyal space.
The first renormalisable quantum field theories on non-commutative space have been found recently. We review this rapidly growing subject.
