The global stability of Minkowski space-time in harmonic gauge
The set (m,R3+1, 0): standard Minkowski metric g = m = −dt2 +3i=1(dxi)2 on R3+1 and vanishing scalar field ψ ≡ 0 describes the Minkowski space-time solution of the system (1.1). The problem of stability of Minkowski space appears in the Cauchy formulation of the Einstein equations in which given a 3-d manifold Σ0 with a Riemannian metric g0, a symmetric 2-tensor k0 and the initial data (ψ0, ψ1)...
متن کاملReconstructing Minkowski Space-Time
Minkowski space is a physically important space-time for which the finding an adequate holographic description is an urgent problem. In this paper we develop further the proposal made in [1] for the description as a duality between Minkowski spacetime and a Conformal Field Theory defined on the boundary of the light-cone. We focus on the gravitational aspects of the duality. Specifically, we id...
متن کاملMinkowski Space-Time and Thermodynamics
I. Ever since Minkowski published his four-dimensional representation of space-time, the dominant view in physics and philosophy has been that time is a fourth dimension such that human perception of change and the passage of time is a mere illusion, due to our particular slicing of space-time. But fourdimensional space-time is a block universe. This conclusion takes the form of an inference fr...
متن کاملA holographic reduction of Minkowski space - time
Minkowski space can be sliced, outside the lightcone, in terms of Euclidean Antide Sitter and Lorentzian de Sitter slices. In this paper we investigate what happens when we apply holography to each slice separately. This yields a dual description living on two spheres, which can be interpreted as the boundary of the light cone. The infinite number of slices gives rise to a continuum family of o...
متن کاملTense Logic in Einstein-Minkowski Space-time
This paper argues that the Einstein-Minkowski space-time of special relativity provides an adequate model for classical tense logic, including rigorous definitions of tensed becoming and of the logical priority of proper time. In addition, the extension of classical tense logic with an operator for predicate-term negation provides us with a framework for interpreting and defending the significa...
