High energy improved scalar quantum field theory from noncommutative geometry without UV/IR-mixing (2010)
Journal Article
Schenkel, A., & F. Uhlemann, C. (2010). High energy improved scalar quantum field theory from noncommutative geometry without UV/IR-mixing. Physics Letters B, 694(3), 258-260. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2010.09.066

We consider an interacting scalar quantum field theory on noncommutative Euclidean space. We implement a family of noncommutative deformations, which -- in contrast to the well known Moyal-Weyl deformation -- lead to a theory with modified kinetic te...
