Abstract
The most popular noncommutative field theories are characterized by a matrix parameter ${\ensuremath{\theta}}^{\ensuremath{\mu}\ensuremath{\nu}}$ that violates Lorentz invariance. We consider the simplest algebra in which the $\ensuremath{\theta}$ parameter is promoted to an operator and Lorentz invariance is preserved. This algebra arises through the contraction of a larger one for which explicit representations are already known. We formulate a star product and construct the gauge-invariant Lagrangian for Lorentz-conserving noncommutative QED. Three-photon vertices are absent in the theory, while a four-photon coupling exists and leads to a distinctive phenomenology.

Noncommutative Inspired Black Holes in Extra Dimensions

TL;DR: In this article, Nicolini, Smailagic and Spallucci extended the NSS model to the case of flat, toroidally compactified extra dimensions and examined the resulting modifications in black hole properties due to the existence of noncommutativity.

Lorentz and CPT violation in the Higgs sector

TL;DR: In this paper, Colladay and Kostelecky have proposed a framework for studying Lorentz and CPT violation in a natural extension of the Standard Model, but no published bounds on the parameters in the Higgs sector are known.

String theory and noncommutative geometry

TL;DR: In this article, a non-zero B-field is introduced for string theory and the entire string dynamics is described by a minimally coupled (supersymmetric) gauge theory on a noncommutative space, and the corrections away from this limit are discussed.

Quantized Space-Time

TL;DR: In this article, the authors give an example of a Lorentz invariant discrete space-time, which is not required by the assumption that space time is a continuous space, and show that it is possible to construct a discrete space time with Lorentzi invariance.

Lorentz-Violating Extension of the Standard Model

TL;DR: In this article, a general Lorentz-violating extension of the minimal quantum field theory is presented, which can be viewed as the low-energy limit of a physically relevant fundamental theory with Lorenerz-covariant dynamics in which spontaneous LorentZ violation occurs.
