Abstract

After a brief introduction of Born’s reciprocal relativity theory is presented, we review the construction of the deformed quaplectic group that is given by the semi-direct product of U(1,3) with the deformed (noncommutative) Weyl–Heisenberg group corresponding to noncommutative fiber coordinates and momenta [Xa,Xb]≠0; [Pa,Pb]≠0. This construction leads to more general algebras given by a two-parameter family of deformations of the quaplectic algebra, and to further algebraic extensions involving antisymmetric tensor coordinates and momenta of higher ranks [Xa1a2⋯an,Xb1b2⋯bn]≠0; [Pa1a2⋯an,Pb1b2⋯bn]≠0. We continue by examining algebraic extensions of the Yang algebra in extended noncommutative phase spaces and compare them with the above extensions of the deformed quaplectic algebra. A solution is found for the exact analytical mapping of the noncommuting xμ,pμ operator variables (associated to an 8D curved phase space) to the canonical YA,ΠA operator variables of a flat 12D phase space. We explore the geometrical implications of this mapping which provides, in the classical limit, the embedding functions YA(x,p),ΠA(x,p) of an 8D curved phase space into a flat 12D phase space background. The latter embedding functions determine the functional forms of the base spacetime metric gμν(x,p), the fiber metric of the vertical space hab(x,p), and the nonlinear connection Naμ(x,p) associated with the 8D cotangent space of the 4D spacetime. Consequently, we find a direct link between noncommutative curved phase spaces in lower dimensions and commutative flat phase spaces in higher dimensions.
