Abstract We construct a family of four-dimensional noncommutative deformations of U(1) gauge theory following a general scheme, recently proposed in JHEP 08 (2020) 041 for a class of coordinate-dependent noncommutative algebras. This class includes the $$ \mathfrak{su} $$ su (2), the $$ \mathfrak{su} $$ su (1, 1) and the angular (or λ-Minkowski) noncommutative structures. We find that the presence of a fourth, commutative coordinate x0 leads to substantial novelties in the expression for the deformed field strength with respect to the corresponding three-dimensional case. The constructed field theoretical models are Poisson gauge theories, which correspond to the semi-classical limit of fully noncommutative gauge theories. Our expressions for the deformed gauge transformations, the deformed field strength and the deformed classical action exhibit flat commutative limits and they are exact in the sense that all orders in the deformation parameter are present. We review the connection of the formalism with the L∞ bootstrap and with symplectic embeddings, and derive the L∞-algebra, which underlies our model.

We construct a dyon solution for the noncommutative version of the Yang-Mills-Higgs model with a ϑ-term. Extending the Noether method to the case of a noncommutative gauge theory, we analyze the effect of CP violation induced both by the ϑ-term and by noncommutativity proving that the Witten effect formula for the dyon charge remains the same as in ordinary space.

Abstract We formulate general definitions of semi-classical gauge transformations for noncommutative gauge theories in general backgrounds of string theory, and give novel explicit constructions using techniques based on symplectic embeddings of almost Poisson structures. In the absence of fluxes the gauge symmetries close a Poisson gauge algebra and their action is governed by a $P_\infty$-algebra which we construct explicitly from the symplectic embedding. In curved backgrounds they close a field dependent gauge algebra governed by an $L_\infty$-algebra which is not a $P_\infty$-algebra. Our technique produces new all orders constructions which are significantly simpler compared to previous approaches, and we illustrate its applicability in several examples of interest in noncommutative field theory and gravity. We further show that our symplectic embeddings naturally define a $P_\infty$-structure on the exterior algebra of differential forms on a generic almost Poisson manifold, which generalizes earlier constructions of differential graded Poisson algebras, and suggests a new approach to defining noncommutative gauge theories beyond the gauge sector and the semi-classical limit based on $A_\infty$-algebras.

We propose an exact expression for the unintegrated form of the star gauge-invariant axial anomaly in an arbitrary even dimensional noncommutative gauge theory. The proposal is based on our earlier work,7 as well as on the inverse Seiberg–Witten map and identities related to it, obtained previously15,18 by comparing Ramond–Ramond couplings in different descriptions. The integrated anomalies, found from the unintegrated ones, are expressed in terms of a simplified version of the Elliott formula involving the noncommutative Chern character. These anomalies, under the Seiberg–Witten transformation, reduce to the ordinary (integrated) axial anomalies. Compatibility with existing results of anomalies in noncommutative theories is established.

We study the space–time symmetries and transformation properties of the non-commutative U(1) gauge theory, by using Noether charges. We carry out our analysis by keeping an open view on the possible ways θμν could transform. Since the theory is not invariant under the conformal transformations, with the only exception of space–time translations, we conclude that the most natural and dynamically consistent requirement is that θμν does not transform under any space–time transformation. A similar analysis should apply to other gauge groups.

Abstract Using the principles of the modern scattering amplitudes programme, we develop a formalism for constructing the amplitudes of three-dimensional topologically massive gauge theories and gravity. Inspired by recent developments in four dimensions, we construct the three-dimensional equivalent of x-variables, first defined in [1], for conserved matter currents coupled to topologically massive gauge bosons or gravitons. Using these, we bootstrap various matter-coupled gauge-theory and gravitational scattering amplitudes, and conjecture that topologically massive gauge theory and topologically massive gravity are related by the double copy. To motivate this idea further, we show explicitly that the Landau gauge propagator on the gauge theory side double copies to the de Donder gauge propagator on the gravity side.

Using the simplicial pseudorandom version of lattice gauge theory we study simple Z(n) gauge models in D=3 dimensions. In this formulation it is possible to interpolate continuously between a regular simplicial lattice and a pseudorandom lattice. Calculating average plaquette expectation values we look for the phase transitions of the Z(n) gauge models with n=2 and 3. We find all the phase transitions to be of first order, also in the case of the Z(2) model. The critical couplings increase with the irregularity of the lattice.

The effective Lagrangian for a three-dimensional gauge theory with a Chern-Simons term is evaluated up to one-loop effects. It is shown to be completely finite. It also does not exhibit any imaginary part. The calculation is carried out in a background field analogue of the Feynman gauge and gauge invariance is maintained throughout the calculation. In the appendix, an argument is presented as to why this Feynman gauge may be a “good” gauge for our results to be applied to high temperature QCD and in particular to the quark-gluon plasma.

The properties of the D-brane fluctuations are investigated using the two types of deformation of the Dirac structure, based on the B-transformation and the β-transformation, respectively. The former gives the standard gauge theory with two-form field strength. The latter gives a nonstandard gauge theory on the Poisson manifold with bivector field strength and the vector field as a gauge potential, where the gauge symmetry is a diffeomorphism generated by the Hamiltonian vector field. The map between the two gauge theories is also constructed with the help of Moser's Lemma and the Magnus expansion. We also investigate the relation to the gauge theory on the noncommutative D-branes.

Invariant (nonplanar) anomaly of noncommutative QED is reexamined in this paper. It is found that just as in ordinary gauge theory UV regularization is needed to discover anomalies, in noncommutative case, in addition, an IR regularization is also required to exhibit the existence of invariant anomaly. Thus resolving the controversy in the value of invariant anomaly, an expression for the unintegrated anomaly is found. Schwinger terms of the current algebra of the theory are derived.
