Title: Lie algebra of the q-Poincare group and q-Heisenberg commutation relations

Journal Article · · International Journal of Modern Physics B

The authors discuss quantum orthogonal groups and their real forms. They review the construction of inhomogeneous orthogonal q-groups and their q-Lie algebras. The geometry of the q-Poincare group naturally induces a well defined q-deformed Heisenberg algebra of hermitian q-Minkowski coordinates x{sup a} and momenta p{sub a}.
