β¦ Synopsis
The star-quantization of the free scalar field is developed by introducing an integral representation of the normal star-product. A formal connection between the Feynman path integral in the holomorphic representation and the star-exponential is established for the interacting scalar fields.

We discuss the deformation quantization approach to perturbative quantum field theory. The various forms of Wick's theorem are shown to be a direct consequence of the structure of the star products. The scattering function for a scalar field in interaction with a spacetime-dependent source is derive
