We know some nice space-time have a lot of symmetries. It is said that
Minkowski spacetime has
$$ISO(d-1,1)/SO(d-1,1),$$
de Sitter spacetime has
$$SO(d,1)/SO(d-1,1)$$ and
anti-de Sitter spacetime has
$$SO(d-1,2)/SO(d-1,1).$$
e.g. see https://physics.stackexchange.com/a/75604/42982
One then is interested in unitary irreducible representations of the space-time symmetry group.
Question: Is this correct that the above is the symmetry of Minkowski, de Sitter spacetime, and anti-de Sitter spacetime? It this the same as the isometry of these spacetimes? How to show this is the complete symmetry?
