Description

We unify κ-Poincaré algebra and κ-Minkowski spacetime by embedding them into quantum phase space. The quantum phase space has Hopf algebroid structure to which we apply the twist in order to get κ-deformed Hopf algebroid structure and κ-deformed Heisenberg algebra. We explicitly construct κ-Poincaré–Hopf algebra and κ-Minkowski spacetime from twist. It is outlined how this construction can be extended to κ-deformed super-algebra including exterior derivative and forms. Our results are relevant for constructing physical theories on noncommutative spacetime by twisting Hopf algebroid phase space structure.
