We describe four types of inner involutions of the Cartan-Weyl basis providing (for $ |q|=1$ and $q$ real) three types of real quantum Lie algebras: $U_{q}(O(3,2))$ (quantum D=4 anti-de-Sitter), $U_{q}(O(4,1))$ (quantum D=4 de-Sitter) and $U_{q}(O(5))$. We give also two types of inner involutions of the Cartan-Chevalley basis of $U_{q}(Sp(4;C))$ which can not be extended to inner involutions of the Cartan-Weyl basis. We outline twelve contraction schemes for quantum D=4 anti-de-Sitter algebra. All these contractions provide four commuting translation generators, but only two (one for $ |q|=1$, second for $q$ real) lead to the quantum \po algebra with an undeformed space rotations O(3) subalgebra.

  1. Universal $T$-matrices for quantum Poincar\'e groups: contractions and quantum reference frames

    math.QA 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A new quantum deformation of the centrally extended Poincaré algebra is introduced whose universal T-matrix contracts to the Galilei T-matrix for quantum reference frames and appears as a central extension of the spac...
