Let G be a group and let A be the algebra of complex functions on G with finite support. The product in G gives rise to a coproduct on A making it a multiplier Hopf algebra. In fact, because there exist integrals, we get an algebraic…
We construct the induced representations of the null-plane quantum Poincar\'e and quantum kappa Galilei algebras in (1+1) dimensions. The induction procedure makes use of the concept of module and is based on the existence of a pair of Hopf…
The recently introduced $\kappa$-Poincare-Dirac equation is gauged to treat the $\kappa$-Dirac-Coulomb problem. For the resulting equation, we prove that the perturbation to first order in the quantum group parameter vanishes identically.…
If one tries to view de Sitter as a true (as opposed to a meta-stable) vacuum, there is a tension between the finiteness of its entropy and the infinite-dimensionality of its Hilbert space. We invetsigate the viability of one proposal to…
The space of time-like geodesics on Minkowski spacetime is constructed as a coset space of the Poincar\'e group in (3+1) dimensions with respect to the stabilizer of a worldline. When this homogeneous space is endowed with a Poisson…
In this paper we describe the effect on quantum groups -- namely, both QUEA's and QFSHA's -- of deformations by twist and by 2-cocycles, showing how such deformations affect the semiclassical limit. As a second, more important task, we…
The space-time symmetry of noncommutative quantum field theories with a deformed quantization is described by the twisted Poincar\'e algebra, while that of standard commutative quantum field theories is described by the Poincar\'e algebra.…
Beginning with a skew-symmetric matrix, we define a certain Poisson--Lie group. Its Poisson bracket can be viewed as a cocycle perturbation of the linear (or "Lie-Poisson") Poisson bracket. By analyzing this Poisson structure, we gather…
We present a way to derive a deformation of special relativistic kinematics (possible low energy signal of a quantum theory of gravity) from the geometry of a maximally symmetric curved momentum space. The deformed kinematics is fixed (up…
We show that the $\kappa$-Poincar\'e Hopf algebra can be interpreted in the framework of curved momentum space leading to the relativity of locality \cite{AFKS}. We study the geometric properties of the momentum space described by…
Defining a new r-matrix compatible with the scalar product at the basis of the Chern-Simons action for a particle coupled to (2+1) Lorentzian gravity with cosmological constant, I show how deformed symmetries of $\kappa$-de Sitter and, in…
The differential calculus on n-dimensional quantum Minkowski space covariant with respect to left action of Kappa-Poincar'e group is constructed and its uniqueness is shown.
We twist the Hopf algebra of igl(n,R) to obtain the kappa-deformed spacetime coordinates. Coproducts of the twisted Hopf algebras are explicitly given. The kappa-deformed spacetime obtained this way satisfies the same commutation relation…
Two new quantum anti-de Sitter so(4,2) and de Sitter so(5,1) algebras are presented. These deformations are called either time-type or space-type according to the dimensional properties of the deformation parameter. Their Hopf structure,…
Hopf algebra deformations are merged with a class of Lie systems of Hamiltonian type, the so-called Lie-Hamilton systems, to devise a novel formalism: the Poisson-Hopf algebra deformations of Lie-Hamilton systems. This approach applies to…
We re-examine all the contractions related with the ${\cal U}_q(su(2))$ deformed algebra and study the consequences that the contraction process has for their structure. We also show using ${\cal U}_q(su(2))\times{\cal U}(u(1))$ as an…
Let X=GM be a finite group factorisation. It is shown that the quantum double D(H) of the associated bicrossproduct Hopf algebra $H=kM\cobicross k(G)$ is itself a bicrossproduct $kX\cobicross k(Y)$ associated to a group YX, where $Y=G\times…
We present a unified study of some aspects of quantum bicrossproduct algebras of inhomogeneous Lie algebras, like Poincare, Galilei and Euclidean in N dimensions. The action associated to the bicrossproduct structure allows to obtain a…
We give a rigorous proof that the (codimension one) Connes-Moscovici Hopf algebra H_CM is isomorphic to a bicrossproduct Hopf algebra linked to a group factorisation of the group of positively-oriented diffeomorphisms of the real line. We…
The dissertation deals with noncommutative field theories, namely field theories compatible with the existence of a minimal (quantum gravity) length scale. Two families of quantum spacetime are considered. One is characterized by semisimple…
