Light Cone Consistency in Bimetric General Relativity
General relativity can be formally derived as a flat spacetime theory, but the consistency of the resulting curved metric’s light cone with the flat metric’s null cone has not been adequately considered. If the two are inconsistent, then gravity is not just another field in flat spacetime after all. Here we discuss recent progress in describing the conditions for consistency and prospects for s...
متن کاملSynchronization Gauges and the Principles of Special Relativity
The axiomatic bases of Special Relativity Theory (SRT) are thoroughly re-examined from an operational point of view, with particular emphasis on the status of Einstein synchronization in the light of the possibility of arbitrary synchronization procedures in inertial reference frames. Once correctly and explicitly phrased, the principles of SRT allow for a wide range of ‘theories’ that differ f...
متن کاملA New Family of Gauges in Linearized General Relativity
For vacuum Maxwell theory in four dimensions, a supplementary condition exists (due to Eastwood and Singer) which is invariant under conformal rescalings of the metric, in agreement with the conformal symmetry of the Maxwell equations. Thus, starting from the de Donder gauge, which is not conformally invariant but is the gravitational counterpart of the Lorenz gauge, one can consider, led by fo...
متن کاملPathologies of hyperbolic gauges in general relativity and other field theories
We present a mathematical characterization of hyperbolic gauge pathologies in electrodynamics and general relativity. We show analytically how non-linear gauge terms can produce a blow-up of some fields along characteristics. We expect similar phenomena to appear in any other gauge field theory. We also present numerical simulations where such blow-ups develop and show how they can be properly ...
متن کاملNo consistent bimetric gravity?
Two-tensor, bimetric (or ‘‘f-g’’) gravity (BMG) was born as the fusion of the strong-interaction resonances of the 1960s (specifically that of a massive spin 2 field) with general relativity’s (GR) massless metric [1]. The idea was to join the two symmetrically by giving each its own Einstein-Hilbert action, then coupling the two resulting ‘‘spaces’’ through a nonderivative ‘‘mass term’’ that n...
