Tree Unitarity and Partial Wave Expansion in Noncommutative Quantum Field Theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
The validity of the tree-unitarity criterion for scattering amplitudes on the noncommutative space-time is considered, as a condition that can be used to shed light on the problem of unitarity violation in noncommutative quantum field theories when time is noncommutative. The unitarity constraints on the partial wave amplitudes in the noncommutative space-time are also derived.

Space-Time Noncommutative Field Theories And Unitarity
We study the perturbative unitarity of noncommutative scalar field theories. Field theories with space-time noncommutativity do not have a unitary S-matrix. Field theories with only space noncommutativity are perturbatively unitary. This can be understood from string theory, since space noncommutative field theories describe a low energy limit of string theory in a background magnetic field. On...
متن کاملCutting rules and perturbative unitarity of noncommutative electric-type field theories from string theory
We discuss the breakdown of perturbative unitarity of noncommutative quantum field theories in electric-type background in the light of string theory. We consider the analytic structure of string loop two-point functions and then perform the zero slope limit of Seiberg and Witten. In this way we pick up how the unphysical tachyonic branch cut appears in the effective field theory. We briefly di...

متن کاملRetarded Functions in Noncommutative Theories
The perturbative approach to quantum field theory using retarded functions is extended to noncommutative theories. Unitarity as well as quantized equations of motion are studied and seen to cause problems in the case of space-time noncommutativity. A modified theory is suggested that is unitary and preserves the classical equations of motion on the quantum level. PACS: 11.10.Nx, 11.25.Db
متن کاملTime-ordered perturbation theory on noncommutative spacetime II: unitarity
We examine the unitarity issue in the recently proposed time-ordered perturbation theory on noncommutative (NC) spacetime. We show that unitarity is preserved as long as the interaction Lagrangian is explicitly Hermitian. We explain why it makes sense to distinguish the Hermiticity of the Lagrangian from that of the action in perturbative NC field theory and how this requirement fits in the fra...
