On a Lorentz-invariant interpretation of noncommutative space-time and its implications on noncommutative QFT

TL;DR: By invoking the twisted Poincare symmetry of the algebra of functions on a Minkowski space-time, this paper showed that the non-commutative space time with the commutation relations [ x μ, x ν ] = i θ μ ν, where θμ ν is a constant real antisymmetric matrix, can be interpreted in a Lorentz-invariant way.

Romuald A. Janik
- 15 Apr 2006 - 
TL;DR: An algebraic way to implement crossing relations for the AdS{sub 5}xS{sup 5} superstring worldsheet S matrix is proposed and generalized rapidities living on the universal cover of the parameter space which is constructed through an auxillary, coupling-constant dependent, elliptic curve.

A gravity theory on noncommutative spaces

TL;DR: In this article, a deformation of the algebra of diffeomorphisms is constructed for canonically deformed spaces with constant deformation parameter?, and a covariant tensor calculus is constructed based on this deformed algebra, which can be interpreted as a?-deformed Einstein?Hilbert action.
