Scalar field theories with quartic interaction are quantized on fuzzy $S^2$ and fuzzy $S^2\times S^2$ to obtain the 2- and 4-point correlation functions at one-loop. Different continuum limits of these noncommutative matrix spheres are then…
Using a new scaling limit as well as a new cut-off procedure, we show that $\phi^4$ theory on noncommutative ${\bf R}^4$ can be obtained from the corresponding theory on fuzzy ${\bf S}^2 \times {\bf S}^2$. The star-product on this…
We examine the UV/IR mixing property on a $\kappa$-deformed Euclidean space for a real scalar $\phi^4$ theory. All contributions to the tadpole diagram are explicitly calculated. UV/IR mixing is present, though in a different dressing than…
The phi^4 real scalar field theory on a fuzzy sphere is studied numerically. We refine the phase diagram for this model where three distinct phases are known to exist: a uniformly ordered phase, a disordered phase, and a non-uniform ordered…
We solve a multitrace matrix model approximating the real quartic scalar field theory on the fuzzy sphere and obtain its phase diagram. We generalize this method to models with modified kinetic terms and demonstrate its use by investigating…
We propose a new algorithm for simulating noncommutative phi-four theory on the fuzzy sphere based on, i) coupling the scalar field to a U(1) gauge field, in such a way that in the commutative limit N\longrightarrow \infty, the two modes…
From a string theory point of view the most natural gauge action on the fuzzy sphere {\bf S}^2_L is the Alekseev-Recknagel-Schomerus action which is a particular combination of the Yang-Mills action and the Chern-Simons term . Since the…
We prove that the real four-dimensional Euclidean noncommutative \phi^4-model is renormalisable to all orders in perturbation theory. Compared with the commutative case, the bare action of relevant and marginal couplings contains…
The fuzzy disc is a discretization of the algebra of functions on the two dimensional disc using finite matrices which preserves the action of the rotation group. We define a $\varphi^4$ scalar field theory on it and analyze numerically for…
We explore a new way to simulate quantum field theory, without introducing a spatial lattice. As a pilot study we apply this method to the 3d \lambda \phi^4 model. The regularisation consists of a fuzzy sphere with radius R for the two…
We study in one-loop perturbation theory noncommutative fuzzy quenched QED_4. We write down the effective action on fuzzy S**2 x S**2 and show the existence of a gauge-invariant UV-IR mixing in the model in the large N planar limit. We also…
We consider the noncommutative space $\mathbb{R}^3_\lambda$, a deformation of the algebra of functions on $\mathbb{R}^3$ which yields a "foliation" of $\mathbb{R}^3$ into fuzzy spheres. We first construct a natural matrix base adapted to…
We regularise the 3d \lambda \phi^4 model by discretising the Euclidean time and representing the spatial part on a fuzzy sphere. The latter involves a truncated expansion of the field in spherical harmonics. This yields a numerically…
By considering scalar theories on the fuzzy sphere as matrix models, we construct a renormalization scheme and calculate the one-loop effective action. Because of UV-IR mixing, the two- and the four-point correlators at low energy are not…
Previously matrix model actions for ``fuzzy'' fields have been proposed using non-commutative geometry. They retained ``topological'' properties extremely well, being capable of describing instantons, $\theta$--states, the chiral anomaly,…
In this letter we will dicuss the possibility of a resummation procedure in order to cure the UV/IR-mixing problem of noncommutative field theories. The method is presented for a scalar phi^4 theory on Euclidean space. Finally, we sketch…
We propose a procedure for computing noncommutative corrections to the metric tensor, and apply it to scalar field theory written on coordinate patches of smooth manifolds. The procedure involves finding maps to the noncommutative plane…
