Time discretization from noncommutativity

نویسندگان

چکیده

We show that a particular noncommutative geometry, sometimes called angular or $\rho$-Minkowski, requires the spectrum of time be discrete. In this space variable is not commuting with in cylindrical coordinates. The possible values can take go from minus infinity to plus infinity, equally spaced by scale noncommmutativity. Possible self-adjoint extensions "time operator" are discussed. They give measurement any real value, but intervals still quantized.

Noncommutativity from spectral flow

We investigate the transition from second to first order systems. This transforms configuration space into phase space and hence introduces noncommutativity in the former. Quantum mechanically, the transition may be described in terms of spectral flow. Gaps in the energy or mass spectrum may become large which effectively truncates the available state space. Using both operator and path integra...

Noncommutativity from Embedding Techniques

We apply the embedding method of Batalin-Tyutin for revealing noncommutative structures in the generalized Landau problem. Different types of noncommutativity follow from different gauge choices. This establishes a duality among the distinct algebras. An alternative approach is discussed which yields equivalent results as the embedding method. We also discuss the consequences in the Landau prob...

Unitary Quantum Physics with Time-Space Noncommutativity

In this work quantum physics in noncommutative spacetime is developed. It is based on the work of Doplicher et al. which allows for time-space noncommutativity. The Moyal plane is treated in detail. In the context of noncommutative quantum mechanics, some important points are explored, such as the formal construction of the theory, symmetries, causality, simultaneity and observables. The dynami...

Strings from position-dependent noncommutativity

We introduce a new set of noncommutative space-time commutation relations in two space dimensions. The space-space commutation relations are deformations of the standard flat noncommutative space-time relations taken here to have position dependent structure constants. Some of the new variables are non-Hermitian in the most natural choice. We construct their Hermitian counterparts by means of a...

Space-Time Noncommutativity, Discreteness of Time and Unitarity

Violation of unitarity for noncommutative field theory on compact spacetimes is considered. Although such theories are free of ultraviolet divergences, they still violate unitarity while in a usual field theory such a violation occurs when the theory is nonrenormalizable. The compactness of space-like coordinates implies discreteness of the time variable which leads to appearance of unphysical ...
