Finite Field Theory on Noncommutative Geometries

Abstract: The propagator is calculated on a noncommutative version of the flat plane and the Lobachevsky plane with and without an extra (euclidean) time parameter. In agreement with the general idea of noncommutative geometry it is found that the limit when the two 'points' coincide is finite and diverges only when the geometry becomes commutative. The flat 4-dimensional case is also considered. This is at the moment less interesting since there has been no curved case developed with which it can be compared.

“…An imme-diate question is how to generalize the Green function (5.2) to noncommutative instanton backgrounds. The free scalar Green function was already defined in noncommutative space in [66,67]. Using this Green function, the propagators in the noncommutative instanton background may be obtained as long as an annoying ordering problem is carefully treated.…”

“…Another concept from quantum mechanics which is useful in concrete applications is that of a coherent state. This was first used in a finite noncommutative geometry by Grosse & Prešnajder [59] and later applied [75,17,23] to the calculation of propagators on infinite noncommutative geometries, which now become regular 2-point functions and yield finite vacuum fluctuations. Although efforts have been made in this direction [23] these fluctuations have not been satisfactorily included as a source of the gravitational field, even in some 'quasi-commutative' approximation.…”

“…To efficiently describe all evaporation phases of a black hole one must include the quantum field theory (QFT) effects in curved spacetime and ensure the controlled behavior of the theory at very high energies [29]. Noncommutativity (NCY) is one of the promising ways to approach QFT in curved spacetime [30][31][32][33][34], which arises naturally also in string theory [35][36][37][38]. It has been widely accepted that quantum gravity must entail an uncertainty principle which prevents the exact position measurement below the Planck scale [39].…”
