Noncommutative Standard Modelling

We present a noncommutative gauge theory that has the ordinary Standard Model as its low-energy limit. The model is based on the gauge group U(4) x U(3) x U(2) and is constructed to satisfy the key requirements imposed by noncommutativity: the UV/IR mixing effects, restrictions on representations and charges of matter fields, and the cancellation of noncommutative gauge anomalies. At energies well below the noncommutative mass scale our model flows to the commutative Standard Model plus additional free U(1) degrees of freedom which are decoupled due to the UV/IR mixing. Our model also predicts the values of the hypercharges of the Standard Model fields.

Effective actions, Wilson lines and the IR/UV mixing in noncommutative supersymmetric gauge theories

We study IR/UV mixing effects in noncommutative supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with gauge group U(N) using background field perturbation theory. We compute three- and four-point functions of background fields, and show that the IR/UV mixed contributions to these correlators can be reproduced from an explicitly gauge-invariant effective action, which is expressed in terms of open Wilson lines.
