Abstract

We describe a new model of deformed relativistic kinematics based on the group manifold U(1)×SU(2)U(1) \times SU(2) as a four-momentum space. We discuss the action of the Lorentz group on such space and and illustrate the deformed composition law for the group-valued momenta. Due to the geometric structure of the group, the deformed kinematics is governed by {\it two} energy scales λ\lambda and κ\kappa. A relevant feature of the model is that it exhibits a running spectral dimension dsd_s with the characteristic short distance reduction to ds=2d_s =2 found in most quantum gravity scenarios.
