Gauge theories are formulated on the noncommutative two-sphere. These theories have only finite number of degrees of freedom, nevertheless they exhibit both the gauge symmetry and the SU(2) "Poincar\'e" symmetry of the sphere. In…

We introduce the notion of a monodromy for gauge fields with vanishing curvature on the noncommutative torus. Similar to the ordinary gauge theory, traces of the monodromies define noncommutative Wilson lines. Our main result is that these…
The dynamics of a stack of N D-branes is described by U(N) gauge theory of which the central U(1) describes the center of mass motion and the remaining SU(N) describes the internal dynamics. In the non-commutative situation, these two parts…
Nonlinear gauge theory is a gauge theory based on a nonlinear Lie algebra (finite W algebra) or a Poisson algebra, which yields a canonical star product for deformation quantization as a correlator on a disk. We pursue nontrivial…

We derive maps relating currents and their divergences in non-abelian U(N) noncommutative gauge theory with the corresponding expressions in the ordinary (commutative) description. For the U(1) theory, in the slowly-varying-field…
A formulation of (non-anticommutative) N=1/2 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory in noncommutative space is studied. We show that at one loop UV/IR mixing occurs. A generalization of Seiberg-Witten map to noncommutative and non-anticommutative…
We first comment on the search for a deviation from the linear photon dispersion relation, in particular based on cosmic photons from Gamma Ray Bursts. Then we consider the non-commutative space as a theoretical concept that could lead to…

We study the properties of the energy-momentum tensor of gauge fields coupled to matter in non-commutative (Moyal) space. In general, the non-commutativity affects the usual conservation law of the tensor as well as its transformation…
