摘要
The quest for a quantum gravity phenomenology has inspired a quantum notion of space-time, which motivates us to study the fate of the relativistic symmetries of a particular model of quantum space-time, as well as its intimate connection with the plausible emergent curved "physical momentum space". We here focus on the problem of Poincare symmetry of & kappa;-Minkowski type non-commutative (quantum) space-time, where the Poincare algebra, on its own, remains undeformed, but in order to preserve the structure of the space-time non-commutative (NC) algebra, the actions of the algebra generators on the operator-valued space-time manifold must be enveloping algebra valued that lives in entire phase space i.e. the cotangent bundle on the space-time manifold (at classical level). Further, we constructed a model for a spin-less relativistic massive particle enjoying the deformed Poincare symmetry, using the first order form of geometric Lagrangian, that satisfies a new deformed dispersion relation and explored a feasible regime of a future Quantum Gravity theory in which the momentum space becomes curved. In this scenario there is only a mass scale (Planck mass m(p)), but no length scale. Finally, we relate the deformed mass shell to the geodesic distance in this curved momentum space, where the mass of the particle gets renormalized as a result of noncommutativity. We show, that under some circumstances, the Planck mass provides an upper bound for the observed renormalized mass.
