GAUGE FIELD THEORY ON THE Eq(2)-COVARIANT PLANE

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: Gauge theory on the q-deformed two-dimensional Euclidean plane R^2_q is studied using two different approaches. We first formulate the theory using the natural algebraic structures on R^2_q, such as a covariant differential calculus, a frame of one-forms and invariant integration. We then consider a suitable star product, and introduce a natural way to implement the Seiberg-Witten map. In both approaches, gauge invariance requires a suitable ``measure in the action, breaking the E_q(2)-invariance. Some possibilities to avoid this conclusion using additional terms in the action are proposed.
