Modified dispersion relations

Many Q-gravity models do give modifiedEnergy-Momentum relations

Observations of ultra high energy cosmic ray scatteringcontradicts standard notions of astroparticle physics.

These observations can be explained if the thresholdenergies required for these processes are not dictated byusual Energy-Momentum relations but by modified onesinvolving a length scale!

DSR: Two seemingly different models were constructedrecently.

Are they related? Equivalent?

IS DSR UNIQUE?

We will come back to this.

DSR and k-deformed space-time

There are certain q-gravity models whose low energylimit shows modified Energy-Momentum relations as inDSR.

These q-gravity models with Λ > 0 ( and goes over toΛ = 0 limit smoothly) are shown to have deformed deSitter group as the symmetry group. The deformationparameter q here is related to lp as in q = lp

√Λ.

In the Λ → 0 limit, the symmetry group reduces tok-Poincare group and NOT Poincare group.

Algebraic structure governing the deformation ofEnergy-Momentum relation in these models at Planckscale is k-Poincare algebra

Conclusion

Page 100: Kappa-deformed space-time: Field Theory and Twisted Symmetry › ~trg › Hari.pdf · Modify STR Space-time structure is governed not only by a fundamental velocity scale c, but also

Conclusion

We have obtained the twisted co-product for thesymmetry algebra of kappa-space time.

Using the casimirs, we have shown that more than oneinvariant action for scalar field is possible ( having correctcommutative limit).

Flip operator compatible with the twisted co-product isderived.

Twisted commutators between creation and annihilationoperators are obtained.In collaboration with: S. Meljanac, D. Meljanac, K. S. Gupta,T. R.
