The Hopf Algebra of Renormalization, Normal Coordinates and Kontsevich Deformation Quantization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using normal coordinates in a Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt basis for the Hopf algebra of renormalization in perturbative quantum field theory, we investigate the relation between the twisted antipode axiom in that formalism, the Birkhoff algebraic decomposition and the universal formula of Kontsevich for quantum deformation.

A Hopf Algebra Deformation Approach to Renormalization
We investigate the relation between Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra approach to renomalization and deformation quantization. Both approaches rely on factorization, the correspondence being established at the level of Wiener-Hopf algebras, and double Lie algebras/Lie bialgebras, via r-matrices. It is suggested that the QFTs obtained via deformation quantization and renormalization correspond to each...
متن کاملCoalgebras and quantization
Two coalgebra structures are used in quantum field theory. The first one is the coalgebra part of a Hopf algebra leading to quantization. The second one is a co-module co-algebra over the first Hopf algebra and it is used to define connected chronological products and renormalization. Paper written for the Encyclopaedia of Mathematics. Co-algebra is a pervasive structure of quantum field theory...
متن کاملA Combinatorial Approach to Coefficients in Deformation Quantization
Graph cocycles for star-products are investigated from the combinatorial point of view, using Connes-Kreimer renormalization techniques. The Hochschild complex, controlling the deformation theory of associative algebras, is the “Kontsevich representation” of a DGLA of graphs coming from a pre-Lie algebra structure defined by graph insertions (Gerstenhaber composition with Leibniz rule). Propert...

In this paper we summarize the Mexican contributions to the subject of Noncommutative theories. These contributions span several areas: Quantum Groups, Noncommutative Field Theories, Hopf algebra of renormalization, Deformation Quantization, Noncommutative Gravity, and Noncommutative Quantum Mechanics.
متن کاملEtingof-kazhdan Quantization of Lie Superbialgebras
For every semi-simple Lie algebra g one can construct the DrinfeldJimbo algebra U h (g). This algebra is a deformation Hopf algebra defined by generators and relations. To study the representation theory of U h (g), Drinfeld used the KZ-equations to construct a quasi-Hopf algebra Ag . He proved that particular categories of modules over the algebras U h (g) and Ag are tensor equivalent. Analogo...
