On noncommutative minisuperspace and the Friedmann equations

In this Letter we present a noncommutative version of scalar field cosmology. We find the noncommutative Friedmann equations as well as the noncommutative Klein–Gordon equation, interestingly the noncommutative contributions are only present up to second order in the noncommutative parameter. Finally we conclude that if we want a noncommutative minisuperspace with a constant noncommutative parameter as viable phenomenological model, the noncommutative parameter has to be very small.     

A New Type of Seiberg-Witten Map and Its Application

Deformation quantization is a powerful tool to deal with systems in noncommutative space to get their energy spectra and corresponding Wigner functions, especially for the case of both coordinates and momenta being noncommutative. In order to simplify solutions of the relevant *-genvalue equation, we introduce a new kind of Seiberg-Witten-like map to change the variables of the noncommutative phase space into ones of a commutative phase space, and demonstrate its role via an example of two-dimensional oscillator with both kinetic and elastic couplings in the noncommutative phase space.     

Quantum Phase for an Electric Multipole Moment in Noncommutative Quantum Mechanics

We study the noncommutative nonrelativistic quantum dynamics of a neutral particle, which possesses an electric multipole moment, in the presence of an external magnetic field. First, by introducing a shift for the magnetic field we give the Schrödinger equations in the presence of an external magnetic field both on a noncommutative space and a noncommutative phase space, respectively. Then by solving the Schrödinger equations, we obtain quantum phases of the electric multipole moment both on a noncommutative space and a noncommutative phase space. We demonstrate that these phase are geometric and dispersive.     

Quantum Field Theory with a Minimal Length Induced from Noncommutative Space

From the inspection of noncommutative quantum mechanics, we obtain an approximate equivalent relation for the energy dependence of the Planck constant in the noncommutative space, which means a minimal length of the space. We find that this relation is reasonable and it can inherit the main properties of the noncommutative space. Based on this relation, we derive the modified Klein-Gordon equation and Dirac equation. We investigate the scalar field and φ4 model and then quantum electrodynamics in our theory, and derive the corresponding Feynman rules. These results may be considered as reasonable approximations to those of noncommutative quantum field theory. Our theory also shows a connection between the space with a minimal length and the noncommutative space.     

Quantum phase for an electric quadrupole moment in noncommutative quantum mechanics

We study the noncoInmutative nonrelativistic quantum dynamics of a neutral particle, which possesses an electric qaudrupole moment, in the presence of an external magnetic field. First, by intro ducing a shift for the magnetic field, we give the Schrodinger equations in the presence of an external magnetic field both on a noncommutative space and a noncomlnutative phase space, respectively. Then by solving the SchrSdinger equations both on a noneommutative space and a noncommutative phase space, we obtain quantum phases of the electric quadrupole moment, respectively. Wc demonstrate that these phases are geometric and dispersive.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">SL(2; R)</Emphasis> Duality of the Noncommutative DBI Lagrangian

We study the action of the SL(2; R) group on the noncommutative DBI Lagrangian. The symmetry conditions of this theory under the above group will be obtained. These conditions determine the extra U(1) gauge field. By introducing some consistent relations we observe that the noncommutative (or ordinary) DBI Lagrangian and its SL(2; R) dual theory are dual of each other. Therefore, we find some SL(2; R) invariant equations. In this case the noncommutativity parameter, its T -dual and its SL(2; R) dual versions are expressed in terms of each other. Furthermore, we show that on the effective variables, T -duality and SL(2; R) duality do not commute. We also study the effects of the SL(2; R) group on the noncommutative Chern–Simons action.     

New bounds for Tsallis parameter in a noncommutative phase–space entropic gravity and nonextensive Friedmann equations

In this paper, we have analyzed the nonextensive Tsallis statistical mechanics in the light of Verlinde’s formalism. We have obtained, with the aid of a noncommutative phase–space entropic gravity, a new bound for Tsallis nonextensive (NE) parameter (TNP) that is clearly different from the ones present in the current literature. We derived the Friedmann equations in a NE scenario. We also obtained here a relation between the gravitational constant and the TNP.     

Spin-1/2 relativistic particle in a magnetic field in NC phase space

This work provides an accurate study of the spin-l/2 relativistic particle in a magnetic field in NC phase space. By detailed calculation we find that the Dirac equation of the relativistic particle in a magnetic field in noncommutative space has similar behaviour to what happens in the Landau problem in commutative space even if an exact map does not exist. By solving the Dirac equation in NC phase space, we not only obtain the energy level of the spin-1/2 relativistic particle in a magnetic field in NC phase space but also explicitly offer some additional terms related to the momentum-momentum non-commutativity.     

Landau problem in noncommutative quantum mechanics

The Landau problem in non-commutative quantum mechanics (NCQM) is studied. First by solving the Schrodinger equations on noncommutative (NC) space we obtain the Landau energy levels and the energy correction that is caused by space-space noncommutativity. Then we discuss the noncommutative phase space case, namely, space-space and momentum-momentum non-commutative case, and we get the explicit expression of the Hamiltonian as well as the corresponding eigenfunctions and eigenvalues.

Heating and fluctuations in elastoplastic systems

Starting from the equations of motion of a simple system possessing the properties of elastic and plastic bodies, we construct its Lagrangian and Hamiltonian functions and also the Rayleigh dissipation function. This allows us to find the rate of heating of the system and to analyze the fluctuations of basic observables. Introducing into the Hamilton-Rayleigh equation of motion a random force producing on average the same effects as a dissipation function, we arrive first at the Langevin equations describing the fluctuations and then at a kinetic equation for the distribution function defined in the space of the collective variables. In this way a rather general scheme is established for solving dynamical problems in different and more complex elastoplastic systems, in nuclear physics and maybe even in physics of molecules and atomic clusters. In a preliminary study, the model is applied to estimate the probability of the quasi-fission process coming from the thermal fluctuations of the nuclear shape.

Noncommutative geometry inspired entropic inflation

Recently Verlinde proposed that gravity can be described as an emergent phenomena arising from changes in the information associated with the positions of material bodies. By using noncommutative geometry as a way to describe the microscopic microstructure of quantum spacetime, we derive modified Friedmann equation in this setup and study the entropic force modifications to the inflationary dynamics of early universe.     

Quadratic algebras applied to noncommutative integration of the Klein-Gordon equation: Four-dimensional quadratic algebras containing three-dimensional nilpotent lie algebras

The study is continued on noncommutative integration of linear partial differential equations [1] in application to the exact integration of quantum-mechanical equations in a Riemann space. That method gives solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation when the set of noncommutative symmetry operations for that equation forms a quadratic algebra consisting of one second-order operator and of first-order operators forming a Lie algebra. The paper is a continuation of [2], where a single nontrivial example is used to demonstrate noncommutative integration of the Klein-Gordon equation in a Riemann space not permitting variable separation.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 89–94, March, 1995.     

Supersymmetric QCD and Noncommutative Geometry

We derive supersymmetric quantum chromodynamics from a noncommutative manifold, using the spectral action principle of Chamseddine and Connes. After a review of the Einstein?CYang?CMills system in noncommutative geometry, we establish in full detail that it possesses supersymmetry. This noncommutative model is then extended to give a theory of quarks, squarks, gluons and gluinos by constructing a suitable noncommutative spin manifold (i.e. a spectral triple). The particles are found at their natural place in a spectral triple: the quarks and gluinos as fermions in the Hilbert space, the gluons and squarks as the (bosonic) inner fluctuations of a (generalized) Dirac operator by the algebra of matrix-valued functions on a manifold. The spectral action principle applied to this spectral triple gives the Lagrangian of supersymmetric QCD, including supersymmetry breaking (negative) mass terms for the squarks. We find that these results are in good agreement with the physics literature.     

The Aharonov–Bohm effect in noncommutative quantum mechanics

The Aharonov–Bohm effect in noncommutative (NC) quantum mechanics is studied. First, by introducing a shift for the magnetic vector potential we give the Schrödinger equations in the presence of a magnetic field on NC space and NC phase space, respectively. Then, by solving the Schrödinger equations, we obtain the Aharonov–Bohm phase on NC space and NC phase space, respectively.     

Nonlinear equations of the gravitational field in the special theory of relativity

It is proposed that the nonlinearity of the field be taken into account with the help of a method which essentially consists of the fact that the structure of the Lagrangian, expressed in terms of the potential of the field and its derivatives, is not known a priori, but is obtained from a solution of the self-action equation in phase space in which the Lagrangian is the unknown. This equation has a solution and the Lagrangian turns out to be a nonpolynomial function with respect to the field potential. The gravitational field equations following from the variational principle have a similar structure to the equations of general relativity and coincide with them in the linear approximation. The equations of other fields taking into account gravitation, as well as the equation of motion of a test particle in a gravitational field, are constructed.     

Quantum mechanics on noncommutative plane and sphere from constrained systems

It is shown that quantum mechanics on noncommutative (NC) spaces can be obtained by canonical quantization of some underlying constrained systems. Noncommutative geometry arises after taking into account the second class constraints presented in the models. It leads, in particular, to a possibility of quantization in terms of the initial NC variables. For a two-dimensional plane we present two Lagrangian actions, one of which admits addition of an arbitrary potential. Quantization leads to quantum mechanics with ordinary product replaced by the Moyal product. For a three-dimensional case we present Lagrangian formulations for a particle on NC sphere as well as for a particle on commutative sphere with a magnetic monopole at the center, the latter is shown to be equivalent to the model of usual rotor. There are several natural possibilities to choose physical variables, which lead either to commutative or to NC brackets for space variables. In the NC representation all information on the space variable dynamics is encoded in the NC geometry. Potential of special form can be added, which leads to an example of quantum mechanics on the NC sphere.     

The Noncommutative Harmonic Oscillator Based on Symplectic Representation of Galilei Group

We study symplectic unitary representations for the Galilei group and derive the Schrödinger equation in phase space. Our formalism is based on the noncommutative structure of the star product. Guided by group theoretical concepts, we construct a physically consistent phase-space theory in which each state is described by a quasi-probability amplitude associated with the Wigner function. As applications, we derive the Wigner functions for the 3D harmonic oscillator and the noncommutative oscillator in phase space.     

The Geometric Construction of WZW Effective Action in Noncommutative Manifold

By constructing close-one-cochain density Ω^12n in the gauge group space we get the Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) effective Lagrangian on high-dimensional noncommutative space.Especially consistent anomalies derived from this WZW effective action in noncommutative four-dimensional space coincide with those obtained by L.Bonora etc.(het-th/0002210).
