Comment on triple gauge boson interactions in the non-commutative electroweak sector

In this comment we present an analysis of electroweak neutral triple gauge boson couplings projected out of the gauge sector of the extended non-commutative standard model. A brief overview of the current experimental situation is given.Comment: 4 page

The Standard Model on Non-Commutative Space-Time

We consider the Standard Model on a non-commutative space and expand the action in the non-commutativity parameter theta. No new particles are introduced, the structure group is SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1). We derive the leading order action. At zeroth order the action coincides with the ordinary Standard Model. At leading order in theta we find new vertices which are absent in the Standard Model on commutative space-time. The most striking features are couplings between quarks, gluons and electroweak bosons and many new vertices in the charged and neutral currents. We find that parity is violated in non-commutative QCD. The Higgs mechanism can be applied. QED is not deformed in the minimal version of the NCSM to the order considered.Comment: 28 pages, v3: typos corrected, new appendix on alternative kinetic terms for gauge bosons; v4: typos correcte

Kappa-contraction from SUq(2)SU_q(2) to Eκ(2)E_{\kappa}(2)

We present contraction prescription of the quantum groups: from $SU_q(2)$ to $E_{\kappa}(2)$. Our strategy is different then one chosen in ref. [P. Zaugg, J. Phys. A {\bf 28} (1995) 2589]. We provide explicite prescription for contraction of $a, b, c$ and $d$ generators of $SL_q(2)$ and arrive at $^*$ Hopf algebra $E_{\kappa}(2)$.Comment: 3 pages, plain TEX, harvmac, to be published in the Proceedings of the 4-th Colloqium Quantum Groups and Integrable Systems, Prague, June 1995, Czech.

Bicovariant Quantum Algebras and Quantum Lie Algebras

A bicovariant calculus of differential operators on a quantum group is constructed in a natural way, using invariant maps from \fun\ to \uqg\ , given by elements of the pure braid group. These operators --- the `reflection matrix' $Y \equiv L^+ SL^-$ being a special case --- generate algebras that linearly close under adjoint actions, i.e. they form generalized Lie algebras. We establish the connection between the Hopf algebra formulation of the calculus and a formulation in compact matrix form which is quite powerful for actual computations and as applications we find the quantum determinant and an orthogonality relation for $Y$ in $SO_q(N)$.Comment: 38 page

Neutrino dipole moments and charge radii in noncommutative space-time

In this paper we obtain a bound \Lambda_{\rm NC} _{\rm NC}|} =|3\sum_{i=1}^3 ({\theta}^{0i})^2|^{1/4} < 1.6 \times 10^{-19} cm at $\Lambda_{\rm NC} = 150$ TeV
