Quantum particles in noncommutative spacetime: An identity crisis

چکیده
We argue that the notion of identical particles is no longer well defined in quantum systems governed by non-commutative deformations space-time symmetries. Such models are characterized four-momentum space given a non-abelian Lie group. Our analysis based on observation that, for states containing more than one particle, only total momentum system number. obtained from composition individual momenta which uniquely defined. The main upshot our all previous attempts to construct Fock spaces these rested wrong assumptions and indeed have been unsuccessful. also show how natural braiding numbers characterizes exchange factors tensor product covariant under relativistic transformations thus solving long standing problem field.

Quantum Electrodynamics on Noncommutative Spacetime
We propose a new method to quantize gauge theories formulated on a canonical noncommutative spacetime with fields and gauge transformations taken in the enveloping algebra. We show that the theory is renormalizable at one loop and compute the beta function and show that the spin dependent contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the fermion at one loop has the same value as in the commu...
متن کاملStrings in Noncommutative Spacetime
Free bosonic strings in noncommutative spacetime are investigated. The string spectrum is obtained in terms of light-cone quantization. We construct two different models. In the first model the critical dimension is still required to be 26 while only extreme high energy spectrum is modified by noncommutative effect. In the second model, however, the critical dimension is reduced to be less than...
متن کاملFailure of Microcausality in Quantum Field Theory on Noncommutative Spacetime
The star commutator of : φ(x)⋆φ(x) : with : φ(y)⋆φ(y) : fails to vanish at equal times and thus also fails to obey microcausality at spacelike separation even for the case in which θ0i = 0. The failure to obey microcausality for this sample observable implies that this form of noncommutative field theory fails to obey microcausality in general. This result also holds for general fields and obse...
متن کاملDiscrete Spacetime and Relativistic Quantum Particles
We study a single quantum particle in discrete spacetime evolving in a causal way. We see that in the continuum limit any massless particle with a two dimensional internal degree of freedom obeys the Weyl equation, provided that we perform a simple relabeling of the coordinate axes or demand rotational symmetry in the continuum limit. It is surprising that this occurs regardless of the specific...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity, Field Theory and Signatures of Noncommutative Spacetime
A pedagogical introduction to some of the main ideas and results of field theories on quantized spacetimes is presented, with emphasis on what such field theories may teach us about the problem of quantizing gravity. We examine to what extent noncommutative gauge theories may be regarded as gauge theories of gravity. UV/IR mixing is explained in detail and we describe its relations to renormali...
