$κ$-deformed phase spaces, Jordanian twists, Lorentz-Weyl algebra and dispersion relations

We consider $κ$-deformed relativistic quantum phase space and possible implementations of the Lorentz algebra. There are two ways of performing such implementations. One is a simple extension where the Poincaré algebra is unaltered, while the other is a general extension where the Poincaré algebra is deformed. As an example we fix the Jordanian twist and the corresponding realization of noncommutative coordinates, coproduct of momenta and addition of momenta. An extension with a one-parameter family of realizations of the Lorentz generators, dilatation and momenta closing the Poincaré-Weyl algebra is considered. The corresponding physical interpretation depends on the way the Lorentz algebra is implemented in phase space. We show how the spectrum of the relativistic hydrogen atom depends on the realization of the generators of the Poincaré-Weyl algebra.

Snyder-type spaces, twisted Poincaré algebra and addition of momenta

We discuss a generalisation of the Snyder model that includes all the possible deformations of the Heisenberg algebra compatible with Lorentz invariance, in terms of realisations of the noncommutative geometry. The corresponding deformed addition of momenta, the twist and the $R$-matrix are calculated to first order in the deformation parameters for all models. In the particular case of the Snyder realisation, the exact formula for the twist is obtained.

Quantum field theory in generalised Snyder spaces

We discuss the generalisation of the Snyder model that includes all possible deformations of the Heisenberg algebra compatible with Lorentz invariance and investigate its properties. We calculate peturbatively the law of addition of momenta and the star product in the general case. We also undertake the construction of a scalar field theory on these noncommutative spaces showing that the free theory is equivalent to the commutative one, like in other models of noncommutative QFT.

Kappa-deformed Snyder spacetime

We present Lie-algebraic deformations of Minkowski space with undeformed Poincare algebra. These deformations interpolate between Snyder and kappa-Minkowski space. We find realizations of noncommutative coordinates in terms of commutative coordinates and derivatives. Deformed Leibniz rule, the coproduct structure and star product are found. Special cases, particularly Snyder and kappa-Minkowski in Maggiore-type realizations are discussed. Our construction leads to a new class of deformed special relativity theories.

Lie algebraic deformations of Minkowski space with Poincare algebra

We present Lie-algebraic deformations of Minkowski space with undeformed Poincaré algebra. These deformations interpolate between Snyder and $κ$-Minkowski space. We find realizations of noncommutative coordinates in terms of commutative coordinates and derivatives. Invariants and tensors with respect to Lorentz algebra are discussed. A general mapping from $κ$-deformed Snyder to Snyder space is constructed. Deformed Leibniz rule, the coproduct structure and star product are found. Special cases, particularly Snyder and $κ$-Minkowski in Maggiore-type realizations are discussed.

Deformed Oscillator Algebras and QFT in $κ$-Minkowski Spacetime

In this paper we study the deformed statistics and oscillator algebras of quantum fields defined in $κ$-Minkowski spacetime. The twisted flip operator obtained from the twist associated with the star product requires an enlargement of the Poincaré algebra to include the dilatation generators. Here we propose a novel notion of a fully covariant flip operator and show that to the first order in the deformation parameter it can be expressed completely in terms of the Poincaré generators alone. The $R$-matrices corresponding to the twisted and the covariant flip operators are compared up to first order in the deformation parameter and they are shown to be different. We also construct the deformed algebra of the creation and annihilation operators that arise in the mode expansion of a scalar field in $κ$-Minkowski spacetime. We obtain a large class of such new deformed algebras which, for certain choice of realizations, reduce to results known in the literature.

Twisted Statistics in kappa-Minkowski Spacetime

We consider the issue of statistics for identical particles or fields in kappa-deformed spaces, where the system admits a symmetry group G. We obtain the twisted flip operator compatible with the action of the symmetry group, which is relevant for describing particle statistics in presence of the noncommutativity. It is shown that for a special class of realizations, the twisted flip operator is independent of the ordering prescription.
