Abstract

We consider the twisting of Hopf structure for classical enveloping algebra U(g^)U(\hat{g}), where g^\hat{g} is the inhomogenous rotations algebra, with explicite formulae given for D=4D=4 Poincar\'{e} algebra (g^=P4).(\hat{g}={\cal P}_4). The comultiplications of twisted UF(P4)U^F({\cal P}_4) are obtained by conjugating primitive classical coproducts by FU(c^)U(c^),F\in U(\hat{c})\otimes U(\hat{c}), where c^\hat{c} denotes any Abelian subalgebra of P4{\cal P}_4, and the universal RR-matrices for UF(P4)U^F({\cal P}_4) are triangular. As an example we show that the quantum deformation of Poincar\'{e} algebra recently proposed by Chaichian and Demiczev is a twisted classical Poincar\'{e} algebra. The interpretation of twisted Poincar\'{e} algebra as describing relativistic symmetries with clustered 2-particle states is proposed.
