Phase transitions in a matrix model on a curved noncommutative space

Abstract

In this contribution, we summarize our recent studies of the phase structure of the Grosse-Wulkenhaar model and its connection to renormalizability. Its action contains a special term that couples the field to the curvature of the noncommutative background space. We first analyze the numerically obtained phase diagram of the model and its three phases: the ordered, the disordered, and the noncommutative stripe phase. Afterward, we discuss the analytical derivation of the effective action and the ordered-to-stripe transition line, and how the obtained expression successfully explains the curvature-induced shift of the triple point compared to the model without curvature. This shift also causes the removal of the stripe phase and makes the model renormalizable.
