A new derivation of the quantum deformation of the 2 dimensional Euclidean Poincare group (cf S. Zakrzewski) is proposed. It is based on a contraction of the Hopf algebra Fun(SO_q(3)). The deformation parameter q is sent to one, as in the…
We show that the $\kappa$-deformed Poincar\'e quantum algebra proposed for elementary particle physics has the structure of a Hopf agebra bicrossproduct $U(so(1,3))\cobicross T$. The algebra is a semidirect product of the classical Lorentz…
The $\kappa$-deformation of the D-dimensional Poincar\'e algebra $(D\geq 2)$ with any signature is given. Further the quadratic Poisson brackets, determined by the classical $r$-matrix are calculated, and the quantum Poincar\'e group "with…
There is a growing number of physical models, like point particle(s) in 2+1 gravity or Doubly Special Relativity, in which the space of momenta is curved, de Sitter space. We show that for such models the algebra of space-time symmetries…
We construct quantum deformation of Poincar\'e group using as a starting point $SU(2,2)$ conformal group and twistor-like definition of the Minkowski space. We obtain quantum deformation of $SU(2,2)$ as a real form of multiparametric…
The classical $r$-matrix for $N=1$ superPoincar{\'e} algebra, given by Lukierski, Nowicki and Sobczyk is used to describe the graded Poisson structure on the $N=1$ Poincar{\'e} supergroup. The standard correspondence principle between the…
The $\hat\kappa$-deformed extended Galilei Hopf group algebra, ${\rm Fun}_{\hat\kappa}(\tilde G_{(m)})$, is introduced. It provides an example of a cocycle bicrossproduct structure, and is shown to be the contraction limit of a…
It is well known in the literature that the momentum space associated to the $\kappa$-Poincar\'e algebra is described by the Lie group $\mathsf{A}\mathsf{N}(3)$. In this letter we show that the full $\kappa$-Poincar\'e Hopf algebra…
We argue that the $\kappa$-deformation is related to a factorization of a Lie group, therefore {\em an approproate version of $\kappa$-Poincar\'{e} does exist on the $C^*$-algebraic level}. The explict form of this factorization is computed…
Using the general theory of [10] ( hep-th 9412058 ), quantum Poincar\'e groups (without dilatations) are described and investigated. The description contains a set of numerical parameters which satisfy certain polynomial equations. For most…
Universal $T$-matrices, or Hopf algebra dual forms, for quantum groups are revisited, and their contraction theory is developed. As a first illustrative example, the (1+1) timelike $\kappa$-Poincar\'e $T$-matrix is explicitly worked out.…
We show how Wigner's little group approach to the representation theory of Poincar\'e group may be generalized to the case of $\kappa$-deformed Poincar\'e group. We also derive the deformed Lorentz transformations of energy and momentum. We…
Quantum deformations of (anti-)de Sitter algebras in (2+1) dimensions are revisited, and several features of these quantum structures are reviewed. In particular, the classification problem of (2+1) (A)dS Lie bialgebras is presented and the…
The $\kappa$-deformation of the (2+1)D anti-de Sitter, Poincar\'e and de Sitter groups is presented through a unified approach in which the curvature of the spacetime (or the cosmological constant) is considered as an explicit parameter.…
We present the quantum $\kappa$-deformation of BMS symmetry, by generalizing the lightlike $\kappa$-Poincar\'e Hopf algebra. On the technical level, our analysis relies on the fact that the lightlike $\kappa$-deformation of Poincar\'e…
A general formalism is developed that allows the construction of a field theory on quantum spaces which are deformations of ordinary spacetime. The symmetry group of spacetime (Poincar\' e group) is replaced by a quantum group. This…
We deform Heisenberg algebra and corresponding coalgebra by twist. We present undeformed and deformed tensor identities. Coalgebras for the generalized Poincar\'{e} algebras have been constructed. The exact universal $R$-matrix for the…
We bring the concept that quantum symmetries describe theories with nontrivial momentum space properties one step further, looking at quantum symmetries of spacetime in presence of a nonvanishing cosmological constant $\Lambda$. In…
We present two different quantum deformations for the (anti)de Sitter algebras and groups. The former is a non-standard (triangular) deformation of SO(4,2) realized as the conformal group of the (3+1)D Minkowskian spacetime, while the…
The Hopf algebra dual form for the non--standard uniparametric deformation of the (1+1) Poincar\'e algebra $iso(1,1)$ is deduced. In this framework, the quantum coordinates that generate $Fun_w(ISO(1,1))$ define an infinite dimensional Lie…
