Twisted Poincaré Invariant Quantum Field Theories

چکیده
It is by now well known that the Poincaré group acts on the Moyal plane with a twisted coproduct. Poincaré invariant classical field theories can be formulated for this twisted coproduct. In this paper we systematically study such a twisted Poincaré action in quantum theories on the Moyal plane. We develop quantum field theories invariant under the twisted action from the representations of the Poincaré group, ensuring also the invariance of the S-matrix under the twisted action of the group . A significant new contribution here is the construction of the Poincaré generators using quantum fields.

On the Correspondence between Poincaré Symmetry of Commutative QFT and Twisted Poincaré Symmetry of Noncommutative QFT
The space-time symmetry of noncommutative quantum field theories with a deformed quantization is described by the twisted Poincaré algebra, while that of standard commutative quantum field theories is described by the Poincaré algebra. Based on the equivalence of the deformed theory with a commutative field theory, the correspondence between the twisted Poincaré symmetry of the deformed theory ...
متن کاملTwisted Poincaré Symmetry and Some Implications on Noncommutative Quantum Field Theory
The concept of twisted Poincaré symmetry, as well as some implications, are reviewed. The spin-statistics relation and the nonlocality of NC QFT are discussed in the light of this quantum symmetry. The possibility of a twisted symmetry principle for quantum field and gauge theories formulated on a noncommutative space-time is also explored. 1 Twisted Poincaré symmetry The study of the quantum s...
متن کاملQFT with Twisted Poincaré Invariance and the Moyal Product
We study the consequences of twisting the Poincaré invariance in a quantum field theory. First, we construct a Fock space compatible with the twisting and the corresponding creation and annihilation operators. Then, we show that a covariant field linear in creation and annihilation operators does not exist. Relaxing the linearity condition, a covariant field can be determined. We show that it i...
متن کاملOn “full” twisted Poincaré symmetry and QFT on Moyal-Weyl spaces
We explore some general consequences of a proper, full enforcement of the “twisted Poincaré” covariance of Chaichian et al [13] upon many-particle quantum mechanics and field quantization on a Moyal-Weyl noncommutative space(time). This entails the associated braided tensor product with an involutive braiding (or ⋆-tensor product in the parlance of Aschieri et al [3, 4]) prescription for any co...
متن کاملMathai-quillen Formulation of Twisted N = 4 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories in Four Dimensions
We present a detailed description of the three inequivalent twists of N = 4 supersymmetric gauge theories. The resulting topological quantum field theories are reobtained in the framework of the Mathai-Quillen formalism and the corresponding moduli spaces are analyzed. We study their geometric features in each case. In one of the twists we make contact with the theory of non-abelian monopoles i...
