New quantum (anti)de Sitter algebras and discrete symmetries
  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, universal R matrix and differential-difference realization are obtained in a unified setting by considering a contraction parameter related to the speed of light, which ensures a well defined non-relativistic limit. Such quantum algebras are shown to be symmetry algebras of either time or space discretizations of wave/Laplace equations on uniform lattices. These results lead to a proposal fortime and space discrete Maxwell equations with quantum algebra symmetry.
