Abstract

We investigate new compactifications of OM theory giving rise to a 3+1 dimensional open string theory with noncommutative - and - coordinates. The theory can be directly obtained by starting with a D3 brane with parallel (near critical) electric and magnetic field components, in the presence of a RR scalar field. The magnetic parameter permits to interpolate continuously between the - noncommutative open string theory and the - spatial noncommutative U(N) super Yang-Mills theory. We discuss transformations of this theory. Using the supergravity description of the large limit, we also compute corrections to the quark-antiquark Coulomb potential arising in the NCOS theory.
