Let
$(G_1,\omega _1)$ and
$(G_2,\omega _2)$ be weighted discrete groups and
$0<p\leq 1$. We characterise biseparating bicontinuous algebra isomorphisms on the p-Banach algebra
$\ell ^p(G_1,\omega _1)$. We also characterise bipositive and isometric algebra isomorphisms between the p-Banach algebras
$\ell ^p(G_1,\omega _1)$ and
$\ell ^p(G_2,\omega _2)$ and isometric algebra isomorphisms between
$\ell ^p(S_1,\omega _1)$ and
$\ell ^p(S_2,\omega _2)$, where
$(S_1,\omega _1)$ and
$(S_2,\omega _2)$ are weighted discrete semigroups.
