Abstract

We construct firstly the complete list of five quantum deformations of D=4D=4 complex homogeneous orthogonal Lie algebra o(4;C)o(3;C)o(3;C)\mathfrak{o}(4;\mathbb{C})\cong \mathfrak{o}(3;\mathbb{C})\oplus \mathfrak{o}(3;\mathbb{C}), describing quantum rotational symmetry of four-dimensional complex space-time, in particular we provide the corresponding universal quantum RR-matrices. Further applying four possible reality conditions we obtain all sixteen Hopf-algebraic quantum deformations for the real forms of o(4;C)\mathfrak{o}(4;\mathbb{C}): Euclidean o(4)\mathfrak{o}(4), Lorentz o(3,1)\mathfrak{o}(3,1), Kleinian o(2,2)\mathfrak{o}(2,2) and quaternionic o(4)\mathfrak{o}^{\star}(4). For o(3,1)\mathfrak{o}(3,1) we only recall well-known results obtained previously by the authors, but for other real Lie algebras (Euclidean, Kleinian, quaternionic) as well as for the complex Lie algebra o(4;C)\mathfrak{o}(4;\mathbb{C}) we present new results.
