Constant and preserve the six spatial Euclidean isometries, namely three spatial translations and three spatial rotations. They also preserve the de Sitter dilation , under which an equal-time correlator transforms covariantly together with its observation time. For generic , the preferred propagation speed breaks the three special conformal transformations. The correlators therefore obey seven of the ten de Sitter isometries. When , the action is fully de Sitter invariant and all ten are restored.
