This gives rise to a generalisation of a non-commutative Minkowski spacetime that arises as a consequence of the quantum double symmetry of (2+1) gravity to non-vanishing cosmological constant. The properties of the AdS quantum double that generalises this symmetry to the case $\Lambda\neq 0$ are sketched, and it is shown that the new non-commutative AdS spacetime is a nonlinear $\Lambda$-deformation of the Minkowskian one. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1402.2884v2
