Does AdS space-time have global translation symmetry?

Physics Asked on August 29, 2021

I couldn’t find any papers/articles addressing this particular issue. To elucidate, my question is the following,

Question: Given the maximally symmetric nature of AdS space-time, we also have that it is homogeneous and isotropic. Does the former imply translation symmetry (globally or locally)?

Either way, since far away from the AdS center, the space is conformally flat, one might expect the exact translation invariance of Minkowski space to re-surface in some form. I am quite confused regarding this. Any relevant literature and/or explanations would be appreciated.
