Symmetries in noncommutative field theories: Hopf versus Lie

Abstract: Abstract. I discuss motivations for introducing Hopf algebra symmetries in noncommutative field theories and briefly describe twisting of main symmetry transformations. New results include an extended list of twisted gauge invariants (which may help to overcome the problem of inconsistency of equations of motion) and a gauge-covariant twist operator (leading to a gauge-covariant star product).

“…Next, let us substitute the fields (27) into eqs. (20) - (24). The equations still have the same form in terms of transformed the fields {Y u ,Ȳ u , e u µ ,ē u µ , Φ u }, except that ρ µ disappears.…”

“…Twisting the diffeomorphism seems unnecessary, since we have these transformation realized in the standard way. Here we repeat the interpretation of twisted local symmetries suggested in [32,22]: twisted diffeomorphisms is what remains from the standard diffeomorphism symmetry when ω and ∇ are gauge fixed to some given values. It is also possible, that twisted symmetries are effective lowenergy symmetries when the noncommutativity is defined and fixed by some high-energy effects.…”

“…However, if one were to consider relaxing the concept of twisted symmetries and modify the definition of a deformed Leibniz rule (such as the one exhibited in (7.38)), several different twists and gauge invariants may be constructed that would lead to alternate formulations for NC gauge theories. Some new ideas in this context that might help to remove some of the inconsistencies pointed out here as well as elsewhere, are discussed in [34]. This would involve, essentially, assuming different deformations of products of elements in the same algebra of space-time functions A, when considering different transformation groups.…”
