RT Journal Article T1 Trouble with space-like noncommutative field theory A1 Ruiz Ruiz, Fernando A1 Gracia Bondía, José Mariano A1 Gayral, V. AB It is argued that the one-loop effective action for space like noncommutative (i) lambda phi(4) scalar field theory and (ii) U(1) gauge theory does not exist. This indicates that such theories are not renormalizable already at one loop order and suggests supersymmetrization and reinvestigating other types of noncommutativity.
