The Constraints General Relativity Places on Physicalist Accounts of Causality†
Those who make causality one of the original uralt elements in the universe or one of the fundamental categories of thought,—of whom you will find that I am not one,—have one very awkward fact to explain away. It is that men’s conceptions of a Cause are in different stages of scientific culture entirely different and inconsistent. The great principle of causation which we are told, it is absolu...
متن کاملA logic road from special relativity to general relativity
We present a streamlined axiom system of special relativity in first-order logic. From this axiom system we “derive” an axiom system of general relativity in two natural steps. We will also see how the axioms of special relativity transform into those of general relativity. This way we hope to make general relativity more accessible for the non-specialist.
متن کاملRecovering general relativity from massive gravity.
We obtain static, spherically symmetric, and asymptotically flat numerical solutions of massive gravity with a source. Those solutions show, for the first time explicitly, a recovery of the Schwarzschild solution of general relativity via the so-called Vainshtein mechanism.
متن کاملFrom Spinor Geometry to Complex General Relativity
An attempt is made of giving a self-contained introduction to holomorphic ideas in general relativity, following work over the last thirty years by several authors. The main topics are complex manifolds, two-component spinor calculus, conformal gravity, α-planes in Minkowski space-time, α-surfaces and twistor geometry, anti-self-dual space-times and Penrose transform, spin-3/2 potentials, heave...
متن کاملDefinitions from Harvey Reall’s General Relativity Course
Definition 1.1. A differentiable manifold is a set M together with a collection of subsets Oα such that 1. ∪αOα = M , i.e., the subsets Oα cover M . 2. For each α there is a one-to-one and onto map φα : Oα → Uα where Uα is an open subset of R. φα are called charts and the set {φα} is called an atlas. 3. If Oα and Oβ overlap, i.e., Oα ∩ Oβ 6= ∅, then φβ ◦ φ−1 α : φα(Oα ∩ Oβ) ⊂ Uα ⊂ R → φβ(Oα ∩ O...
