A Consistency Check for the Free Scalar Field Theory Realization of the Doubly Spacial Relativity*

Abstract

Abstract We study a free scalar field theory in the framework of the Magueijo-Smolin model of the “Doubly Special Relativity” (DSR) which is a non-linear realization of the action of the Lorentz group on momentum space admitting an invariant energy cutoff. We show that unlike the standard quantum field theory, the Klein-Gordon equation obtained via Euler-Lagrange field equation and Heisenberg picture equation of motion of the field are not equivalent in this framework, at least up to the first order of the Planck length scale.
