Anomalies and Noncommutative Index Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
These lectures are devoted to a description of anomalies in quantum field theory from the point of view of noncommutative geometry and topology. We will in particular introduce the basic methods of cyclic cohomology and explain the noncommutative counterparts of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem.

Conformal Anomalies in Noncommutative Gauge Theories
We calculate conformal anomalies in noncommutative gauge theories by using path integral method (Fujikawa’s method). As well as the axial anomalies and chiral gauge anomalies, the conformal anomalies take the form of the straightforward Moyal deformation in the corresponding conformal anomalies in ordinary gauge theories. However, Moyal star product leads the difference in the coefficient of th...
متن کاملNonplanar Anomalies in Noncommutative Theories and the Green-Schwarz Mechanism
We discuss nonplanar anomalies in noncommutative gauge theories. In particular we show that a nonplanar anomaly exists when the external noncommutative momentum is zero and that it leads to a non-conservation of the associated axial charge. In the case of nonplanar local anomalies, a cancellation of the anomaly can be achieved by a Green-Schwarz mechanism. In an example of D3 branes placed on a...
متن کاملGravitational Anomalies in Noncommutative Field Theory
Gravitational axial and chiral anomalies in a noncommutative space are examined through the explicit perturbative computation of one-loop diagrams in various dimensions. The analysis depend on how gravity is coupled to noncommutative matter fields. DelbourgoSalam computation of the gravitational axial anomaly contribution to the pion decay into two photons, is studied in detail in this context....
متن کاملضریب گشتاور مغناطیسی لپتون باردار در فضا- زمان ناجابهجایی
The g-factor of the charged leptons has always been considered by many physicists, both experimentaly as well as theoretically. In fact the electron and muon g-factor play the main role in testing the QED as well as the standard model. Meanwhile, there is a discrepancy between the standard model prediction of the muon anomalies magnetic moment and its experimental determination as large as (25...
متن کاملNoncommutativity as a Possible Origin of the Ultrahigh Energy Cosmic Ray and the TeV-photon Paradoxes
In this paper, we present a general modified dispersion relation derived from qdeformed noncommutative theory and apply it to the ultrahigh energy cosmic ray and the TeV-photon paradoxes—threshold anomalies. Our purpose is not only trying to solve these puzzles by noncommutative theory but also to support noncommutative theory through the coincidence of the region in the parameter space for res...
