Thirty years ago Aragone and Deser showed that in three dimensions there exists a consistent model describing interaction for massless spin-2 and spin-5/2 fields. It was crucial that these fields lived in a flat Minkowski space and as a…

A physical and geometrical interpretation of previously introduced tensor operator algebras of U(2,2) in terms of algebras of higher-conformal-spin quantum fields on the anti-de Sitter space AdS_5 is provided. These are higher-dimensional…

A noncommutative *-algebra that generalizes the canonical commutation relations and that is covariant under the quantum groups SOq(3) or SOq(1,3) is introduced. The generating elements of this algebra are hermitean and can be identified…

In this paper we write down the equation for a scalar conformally coupled field simultaneously for de Sitter (dS), anti-de Sitter (AdS) and Minkowski spacetime in d-dimensions. The curvature dependence appears in a very simple way through a…

The noncommutative space of light-like worldlines that is covariant under the light-like (or null-plane) $\kappa$-deformation of the (3+1) Poincar\'e group is fully constructed as the quantization of the corresponding Poisson homogeneous…

We show that a tensor product of four specific $1{+}2$ Minkowski vacuum states is a self-consistent vacuum state for an infinite set of three-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS$_3$) spacetimes if their parity and time-reversal symmetry are…

Four-dimensional (4D) flat Minkowski space admits a foliation by hyperbolic slices. Euclidean AdS3 slices fill the past and future lightcones of the origin, while dS3 slices fill the region outside the lightcone. The resulting link between…

Using recent results on string on $AdS_{3}\times N^d$, where N is a d-dimensional compact manifold, we re-examine the derivation of the non trivial extension of the (1+2) dimensional-Poincar\'e algebra obtained by Rausch de Traubenberg and…

We study conformal field theories in two dimensions separated by domain walls, which preserve at least one Virasoro algebra. We develop tools to study such domain walls, extending and clarifying the concept of `folding' discussed in the…

The generating function of correlators of dual operators on the boundary of (A)dS4 space corresponding to the conformally coupled $\phi^4$-model is obtained up to first order in the coupling constant by using the conformal map between…

In this paper we study quantum group deformations of the infinite dimensional symmetry algebra of asymptotically AdS spacetimes in three dimensions. Building on previous results in the finite dimensional subalgebras we classify all possible…

We wish to report here on a recent approach to the non-commutative calculus on $q$-Minkowski space which is based on the reflection equations with no spectral parameter. These are considered as the expression of the invariance (under the…

Minkowski space, conformal group, compactification, conformal infinity, conformal inversion, light cone at infinity, SU(2,2), SO(4,2), Hodge star operator, Clifford algebra, spinors, twistors, antilinear operators, exterior algebra,…

We extend our earlier work on the minimal unitary representation of $SO(d,2)$ and its deformations for $d=4,5$ and $6$ to arbitrary dimensions $d$. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the minrep of $SO(d,2)$ and its…

Flat Minkowski space (M$^4$) and AdS$_4$ can both be conformally mapped to the Einstein cylinder. The maps may be judiciously chosen so that some null generators of the $\mathcal{I}^+$ boundary of M$^4$ coincide with antipodally-terminating…

We consider the analytic continuation of $(p+q)$-dimensional Minkowski space (with $p$ and $q$ even) to $(p,q)$-signature, and study the conformal boundary of the resulting "Klein space". Unlike the familiar $(-+++..)$ signature, now the…

This paper introduces and investigates a class of noncommutative spacetimes that I will call ``T-Minkowski,'' whose quantum Poincar\'e group of isometries exhibits unique and physically motivated characteristics. Notably, the coordinates on…

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.…

The Hilbert space representations of a non-commutative q-deformed Minkowski space, its momenta and its Lorentz boosts are constructed. The spectrum of the diagonalizable space elements shows a lattice-like structure with accumulation points…

Adopting as working assumption that the conformal group O(4,2) of Minkowski space, being the largest symmetry group which respects its light cone structure, is the appropriate global symmetry underlying the description of relativistic…
