On the Borchers Class of a Non-Commutative Field

Abstract

In this paper, we arrive at the notion of equivalence classes of a non-commutative field exploring some ideas by Soloviev to nonlocal quantum fields. Specifically, an equivalence relation between non-commutative fields is formulated by replacing the weak relative locality condition by a weak relative asymptotic commutativity property, generalizing the notion of relative locality proved by Borchers in the framework of local QFT. We restrict ourselves to the simplest case of a scalar field theory with space-space non-commutativity.
