1. Introduction
Since Classical Gravity is essentially a theory describing the geometryof spacetime, it seems natural to consider that a suit-able definition of a “quantum” spacetime geometry emerging at thePlanckenergyregime could bea reasonable featureof Quan-tum Gravity. Indeed, specific mathematical frameworks for such “quantumgeometry”havetobeproposed.Inparticular,“quantum spacetime” is frequently introduced as a noncommutative alge-brawhose noncommutativityisgoverned by a parameter related tothe Planckscale, thusleading to minimumlength frameworks through generalized spacetime uncertainty relations (see, for in-stance,[1–5]andreferencestherein).
Inthiscontext,quantumgroups[6–8]provideaconsistent ap-proach to noncommutative spacetimes, since the latter are ob-tained asnoncommutative algebras that are covariant under the action of quantum kinematical groups. For instance, the well-known

From the phenomenologicalside,thistypeofdeformeddispersionrelations havebeenproposedaspossibleexperimentallytestablefootprints ofquantumgravity effectsinverydifferentcontexts (see[19–21] andreferencestherein).Moreover, if the interplay between quantum spacetime and gravity atcosmologicaldistances isto be modeled,then the cur-vature of spacetime cannot be neglected and models with non-vanishing cosmological constant have to be considered [22–25]. Thus, therelevantkinematicalgroups(and spacetimes)wouldbe the (anti-)de Sitter ones, hereafter (A)dS, and the construction of quantum (A)dS groups should be faced. In (1
+
1) and (2+
1) dimensions, the correspondingκ
-deformations have been con-structed [26,27] (see also [28–30] for classification approaches). In fact, it is worth stressing that theκ

-Poincaré al-gebrain[42].From a technical perspective, the quantum (Poisson) algebra willbefullyconstructedwithoutmakinguseneitherofrealforms nor of contractiontechniques, thus solving the kinematical basis problemsince the basis is fully fixed from theinitial data.As it waspresentedin[43],bymakinguseofthePoissonversionofthe quantumduality principle(see [6,44–46] andreferencestherein), itis possibleto constructthe fullPoisson–Hopf algebra structure fromtheLiebialgebrathatdefinesthecocomutator

(i.e., the first-order of the coproduct) of the

Here the zerocosmological constant limit corresponds to setting

.Now,the quantumdualityprinciple[6,44–46]impliesthatthe PoissonversionofthequantumAdSω algebraisjustaPoisson–Lie structureonthedualgroup G∗ω,whoseLiealgebra

We stress that we have obtained a two-parametric deformation, which is ruled by a “quantum” deformation parameter z

together witha “classical” deformation parameterω
(the cosmo-logical constant). Notice also that this coproduct is written in a “bicrossproduct-type”basisthatgeneralizestheonecorresponding tothe(2+

It is also worth mentioningthat expressions (4.1) reflect that the rotation sector of the (3

1)κ
-(A)dS algebra is a quantumso
(

subalgebra, which is generated by the√

wherethecosmologicalconstantdoesnotappear.Moreover, both in the (2

.Ontheotherhand,itcanalsobeappreciatedthattheCasimirs (3.6) and(3.7) are profoundly modified by thecosmological con-stant when they are compared with their
κ
-Poincaré counter-parts (3.8) and (3.9). In particular, the quadratic one (3.8) giv-ing riseto theκ
-Poincarédispersion relationisnow transformed into(3.6),wherebothboostandrotationgeneratorsdocontribute. The physical significance of thisfact deserves further study,that could be approached by takinginto account the resultsobtained in [49,50] for the (1+

-dS case, and the common features withrespecttothe(2+

(4.2)This is just the well known (3
