In this paper, this formulation is applied to the case with a nonzero B-field background, and the twist of the Poincaré symmetry is studied. The Drinfeld twist accompanied by the B-field background gives an alternative quantization scheme, which requires a new normal ordering. In order to obtain a physical interpretation of this twisted Hopf algebra structure, we propose a method to decompose the twist into two successive twists and we give two different possibilities of decomposition. The first is a natural decomposition from the viewpoint of the twist quantization, leading to a new type of twisted Poincaré symmetry. The second decomposition reveals the relation of our formulation to the twisted Poincaré symmetry on the Moyal type noncommutative space.Institute of Physics PublishingJournal Articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/38672https://eprints.lib.hokudai.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2115/38672/1/04_117.pdf1126-6708Journal of High Energy Physics041172009-04enginfo:doi/10.1088/1126-6708/2009/04/117This is an author-created, un-copyedited version of an article accepted for publication in Journal of High Energy Physics.
