The classical and commutative limits of noncommutative quantum mechanics: a superstar * Wigner-Moyal equation

We are interested in the similarities and differences between the quantum-classical (Q-C) and the noncommutative-commutative (NC-Com) correspondences. As one useful platform to address this issue we derive the superstar Wigner-Moyal equation for noncommutative quantum mechanics (NCQM). A superstar *-product combines the usual phase space * star and the noncommutative * star-product. Having dealt with subtleties of ordering present in this problem we show that the Weyl correspondence of the NC Hamiltonian has the same form as the original Hamiltonian, but with a non-commutativity parameter thet...
