• Abstract: We investigate the impact of self-interactions on the Rényi and entanglement entropies of a scalar field on $(2+1)$-dimensional spacetimes, whose spatial sections are modeled by fuzzy spaces, specifically the fuzzy sphere and the fuzzy disc. We compute the first-order perturbative correction induced by a $λφ^4$ interaction using the Green's function approach. In contrast to the free theory, where the entanglement entropy is dominated by degrees of freedom near the entangling boundary and obeys an area law, we find that the interaction correction has an extensive bulk contribution, receiving significant contributions from degrees of freedom throughout the fuzzy space. For the fuzzy sphere, the correction exhibits strong infrared sensitivity associated with the zero mode. We isolate and resolve this zero-mode IR divergence by projecting out the zero mode, thereby obtaining a physically meaningful quantity. In the commutative continuum limit, the interaction correction has the same degree of UV divergence as the free entropy but does not obey a pure area law. Furthermore, we analyze the Moyal plane limit, where the interaction correction exhibits a distinct IR divergence. We discuss the physical origin of these extensive bulk features and examine their possible connection to the celebrated UV/IR mixing phenomenon in noncommutative quantum field theories.

  The Lagrange multiplier is found to obey a relativistic diffusion equation transforming the internal coordinates of the scalar field. It is conjectured that infrared and ultraviolet divergences are naturally removed in studying the infinite-order partial differential equation.
