K-Poincaré algebra

In physics and mathematics, the κ-Poincaré algebra, named after Henri Poincaré, is a deformation of the Poincaré algebra into an Hopf algebra. In the bicrossproduct basis, introduced by Majid-Ruegg[1] its commutation rules reads:

Where are the translation generators, the rotations and the boosts. The coproducts are:

The antipodes and the counits:

The κ-Poincaré algebra is the dual Hopf algebra to the κ-Poincaré group, and can be interpreted as its “infinitesimal” version.
