Abstract
The idea of space and time quantum operators with a discrete spectrum has been proposed frequently spacially after the discovery that some physical quantities exhibit measured values that are multiple of a fundamental unit. In 1935 Heisenberg proposed an elementary length in analogy with the observed unit of charge and action. It would be impossible enumerate all the papers written in the same direction. We want to concentrate ourselves in several papers published recently, where other references can be found.
