Deformed Special Relativity in Position Space
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate how deformations of special relativity in momentum space can be extended to position space in a consistent way, such that the dimensionless contraction between wave-vector and coordinate-vector remains invariant. By using a parametrization in terms of an energy dependent speed of light, and an energy dependent Planck’s constant, we are able to formulate simple requirements that completely determine the active transformations in position space. These deviate from the standard transformations for large velocities of the observed object. Some examples are discussed, and it is shown how the relativistic mass gain of a massive particle is affected. We finally study the construction of passive Lorentztransformations.

2 00 3 Doubly Special Relativity and de Sitter space
In this paper we recall the construction of Doubly Special Relativity (DSR) as a theory with energy-momentum space being the four dimensional de Sitter space. Then the bases of the DSR theory can be understood as different coordinate systems on this space. We investigate the emerging geometrical picture of Doubly Special Relativity by presenting the basis independent features of DSR that includ...
متن کاملDeformed Special Relativity as an effective theory of measurements on quantum gravitational backgrounds
Deformed or Doubly Special Relativity (DSR) [1, 2] can be understood as a tentative to modify Special Relativity (SR) in order to incorporate a new invariant scale other than that provided by the speed of light c. The idea driving this attempt is that quantum gravity effects seems to introduce a new dimensional fundamental scale given by the Planck length (lpl). This is possibly problematic for...
متن کاملDeformed Special Relativity and Deformed Symmetries in a Canonical Framework
In this paper we have studied the nature of kinematical and dynamical laws in κ-Minkowski spacetime from a new perspective: the canonical phase space approach. We discuss a particular form of κ-Minkowski phase space algebra that yields the κ-extended finite Lorentz transformations derived in [16]. This is a particular form of a Deformed Special Relativity model that admits a modified energy-mom...
