Within the setting of a recently proposed model of quantum fields on noncommutative Minkowski space, the consequences of the consistent application of the proper, untwisted Poincare group as the symmetry group are investigated. The emergent model contains an infinite family of fields which are labelled by different noncommutativity parameters, and related to each other by Lorentz transformations. The relative localization properties of these fields are investigated, and it is shown that to each…

We revisit the question of microcausality violations in quantum field theory on noncommutative spacetime, taking $O(x)=:\phi\star\phi:(x)$ as a sample observable. Using methods of the theory of
