    The authors formulate a quantum field theory on quantum space-time satisfying \([q^\mu,q^\nu]=i\lambda_p^2Q^{\mu\nu}\). The generalized Weyl correspondence \(W (g\otimes f)=g(Q)f(q)\) extends to any symbol \(F\in{\mathcal Z}_0(\Sigma\times \mathbb{R}^4)\), and a \(C^*\)-algebra \({\mathcal Z}\) is given. A product of fields at different points, \(\varphi (q_1)\cdot\cdots\cdot\varphi(q_n)\), is defined by interpreting \(q_1,\dots,q_n\) as mutually independent quantum coordinates: tensor products over the center \({\mathcal Z}={\mathcal Z}_0(\Sigma)\). The limit \(q_j-q_k\to 0\) is replaced by a quantum diagonal map (QDM) \(E^{(n)}: {\mathcal Z}\otimes_z\cdots \otimes_z{\mathcal Z}\to{\mathcal Z}_1(\subset {\mathcal Z})\). They obtain the following Results: \((I)\) The explicit form of the QDM on \(f\) is \(E^{(n)}(f(q_1, \dots,q_n))=\int dk_1 \cdots dk_n\check f(k_1,\dots,k_n)r_n(k_1,\dots,k_n)\cdot e^{i (\Sigma_j k_j)q}\); \(\check f={\mathcal F}^{-1}f\), \(r_n=\exp\{-2^{-1} \Sigma_{\mu=0 \sim 3}(\Sigma_{j=1\sim n}k_{j\mu}^2-n^{-1} \Sigma_{j,l=1\sim n}k_{j\mu} k_{l \mu})\}\). \((II)\) For any Schwartz function \(\lambda\) of the form \(\lambda=\lambda'(t)\lambda ''(x)\), \(\lambda'\in S(\mathbb{R})\), \(\lambda''\in S(\mathbb{R}^3)\), the formal series \(S [\lambda]=T\cdot \exp\{-i\int d^4x\lambda(x)\). \(E^{(n)}(: \varphi (q_1)\cdots\varphi(q_n):) |_{q=x}\}= I+\Sigma_{N=1 \sim\infty}(-i)^N S^{(N)}[\lambda]\) is finite at all orders. They show the relation between their approach and the usual formulation of the theory in terms of Feynman diagrams.
