Abstract:Motivated by the recent proposition by Buniy, Hsu, and Zee with respect to discrete spacetime and finite spatial degrees of freedom of our physical world with short- and long-distance scales, l P and L, we reconsider the Lorentz-covariant Yang's quantized spacetime algebra (YSTA), which is intrinsically equipped with two such kinds of scale parameters, λ and R. In accordance with their proposition, we find the so-called contracted representation of YSTA with finite spatial degrees of freedom associated with the ratio R/λ, which gives a possibility of the divergence-free noncommutative field theory on YSTA. The canonical commutation relations familiar in the ordinary quantum mechanics appear as the cooperative Inonu-Wigner's contraction limit of YSTA, λ → 0 and R → ∓.
Keywords:Yang's quantized spacetime algebra  Inonu-Wigner contraction  finite spatial degrees of freedom  ultraviolet divergence in quantum field theory
