Noncommutative Gravity and Quantum Field Theory on Noncommutative Curved Spacetimes (2011)
Thesis
Schenkel, A. Noncommutative Gravity and Quantum Field Theory on Noncommutative Curved Spacetimes. (Thesis). Retrieved from https://nottingham-repository.worktribe.com/output/2460579

The focus of this PhD thesis is on applications, new developments and extensions of the noncommutative gravity theory proposed by Julius Wess and his group. In part one we propose an extension of the usual symmetry reduction procedure to noncommut... Read More about Noncommutative Gravity and Quantum Field Theory on Noncommutative Curved Spacetimes.

We study the quantum field theory (QFT) of a free, real, massless and curvature coupled scalar field on self-similar symmetric spacetimes, which are deformed by an abelian Drinfel'd twist constructed from a Killing and a homothetic Killing vector fie...

Quantum Field Theory on Curved Noncommutative Spacetimes (2011)
Journal Article
Schenkel, A. (2011). Quantum Field Theory on Curved Noncommutative Spacetimes. Proceedings of Science, 127, https://doi.org/10.22323/1.127.0029

We summarize our recently proposed approach to quantum field theory on noncommutative curved spacetimes. We make use of the Drinfel'd twist deformed differential geometry of Julius Wess and his group in order to define an action functional for a real...
