Abstract

Non-relativistic quantum theory of a particle in a non-commutative space is formulated within the framework of the usual quantum mechanics itself. This is accomplished by showing explicitly that the Wess-Zumino formalism of deformed quantum mechanical phase space corresponding to a non-commutative space can be realized, in principle, in terms of the usual quantum mechanical phase space. The case of a slightly non-commutative space is considered in detail. A free particle in such a space is found to behave as if it is a charge particle moving in a self-generated magnetic field.
