Approach to Quantum Group deformed Quantum Field Theory
Abstract
Description
In quantum field theory the creation and annihilation operators that are located at the points in 3-momentum space have commutation relations that are conserved under the action of a $U({\infty})$ group. Here it is shown how to define an appropriate $U_q({\infty})$ which then leads to deformed commutation relations. A formalism that was previously defined for quantum group symmetric quantum mechanics can be applied by imposing simple adjustments. The simplest example of a free scalar $q$-bosonic field is discussed. The deformation occurs as a multi-particle effect, which introduces a kinetic energy (i.e. $({\vec{p}})^2$) - ordering of the involved particles.
