Star-product approach to quantum field theory: The free scalar field
The star-quantization of the free scalar field is developed by introducing an integral representation of the normal star-product. A formal connection between the Feynman path integral in the holomorphic representation and the star-exponential is established for the interacting scalar fields.
An example of cancellation of infinities in the star-quantization of fields
Within the *-quantization framework, it is shown how to remove some of the divergences occurring in theλo 2 4 -theory by introducing aλ-dependent *-product cohomologically equivalent to the normal *-product.
