Abstract

We consider noncommutative U(1) gauge theory with the additional term, involving a scalar field lambda, introduced by Slavnov in order to cure the infrared problem. we show that this theory, with an appropriate space-like axial gauge-fixing, wxhibits a linear vector supersymmetry similar to the one present in the 2-dimensional BF model. This vector supersymmetry implies that all loop corrections are independent of the λAA-vertex and thereby explains why Slavnov found a finite model for the same gauge-fixing.
