Noncommutativity of Boundary String Coordinates
We study the dynamics of an open membrane with a cylindrical topology, in the background of a constant three form, whose boundary is attached to p-branes. The boundary closed string is coupled to a two form potential to ensure gauge invariance. We use the action, due to Bergshoeff, London and Townsend, to study the noncommutativity properties of the boundary string coordinates. The constrained ...
متن کاملParity Anomalies in Gauge Theories in 2+1 Dimensions*
We show that the introduction of massless fermions in an abelian gauge theory in Z-t1 dimensions does not lead to any parity anomaly despite a noncommutativity of limits in the structure function of the odd part of the vacuum polarisation tensor. However, a parity anomaly does exist in non-abelian theories due to a conflict between gauge invariance under large gauge transformations and the pari...
متن کاملTroubles with Spacetime Noncommutative Theories: Tachyons or S-branes?
We find Lorentzian solutions of spacetime noncommutative gauge theories that are localized exponentially in space and time. Together with time translational invariance of the theories, we argue that perurbative S matrix formulation of such theories is problematic in the sense that the S matrix based on free in and out states misses the spacetime localized degrees. We show that, in 3+1 dimension...
متن کاملCoherent States and N Dimensional Coordinate Noncommutativity
Considering coordinates as operators whose measured values are expectations between generalized coherent states based on the group SO(N, 1) leads to coordinate noncommutativity together with full N dimensional rotation invariance. Through the introduction of a gauge potential this theory can additionally be made invariant under N dimensional translations. Fluctuations in coordinate measurements...

We discuss how to implement the source terms in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) respecting gauge invariance and noncommutativity of color charge density operators. We start with decomposing the generating functional of QCD into constituents projected to have specified color charge density. We demonstrate that such a projection leads to the gauge invariant source terms consisting of a naive form ac...
