متن کاملDegenerate Solutions of General Relativity from Topological Field Theory
Working in the Palatini formalism, we describe a procedure for constructing degenerate solutions of general relativity on 4-manifold M from certain solutions of 2-dimensional BF theory on any framed surface Σ embedded in M . In these solutions the cotetrad field e (and thus the metric) vanishes outside a neighborhood of Σ, while inside this neighborhood the connection A and the field E = e∧e sa...
متن کاملThe Field Nature of Time in General Relativity
The paper is devoted to the description of the reparametrization invariant dynamics of general relativity obtained by resolving constraints and constructing equivalent unconstrained systems. The constraint-shell action reveals the ”field nature” of the geometric time in general relativity. The time measured by the watch of an observer coincides with one of field variables, but not with the repa...
متن کاملInteracting vector fields in Relativity without Relativity
Barbour, Foster and Ó Murchadha have recently developed a new framework, called here the 3-space approach, for the formulation of classical bosonic dynamics. Neither time nor a locally Minkowskian structure of spacetime are presupposed. Both arise as emergent features of the world from geodesic-type dynamics on a space of 3-dimensional metric–matter configurations. In fact gravity, the universa...
متن کاملNon-locality in quantum field theory due to general relativity
We show that general relativity coupled to a quantum field theory generically leads to non-local effects in the matter sector. These non-local effects can be described by non-local higher dimensional operators which remarkably have an approximate shift symmetry. When applied to inflationary models, our results imply that small nonGaussianities are a generic feature of models based on general re...
