Cauchy Theory on Levi-civita Fields
نویسنده
چکیده
We develop the basic elements of a Cauchy theory on the complex Levi-Civita field, which constitutes the smallest algebraically closed nonArchimedean extension of the complex numbers. We introduce a concept of analyticity based on differentiation, and show that it leads to local expandability in power series. We show that analytic functions can be integrated over suitable piecewise smooths paths in the sense of integrals developed in an accompanying paper. It is then shown that the resulting path integrals allow the formulation of a workable Cauchy theory in a rather similar way as in the conventional case. In particular, we obtain a Cauchy theorem and the Cauchy formula for analytic functions.

متن کاملAnalysis on the Levi - Civita field , a brief overview
In this paper, we review the algebraic properties of various nonArchimedean ordered structures, extending them in various steps which lead naturally to the smallest non-Archimedean ordered field that is Cauchy-complete and real closed. In fact, the Levi-Civita field is small enough to allow for the calculus on the field to be implemented on a computer and used in applications such as the fast a...

As mentioned in the accompanying biography, Levi-Civita and his teacher Ricci,1 prompted by Felix Klein, wrote an important review of tensor calculus (under the name of ‘absolute differential calculus’) in 1901 [1]. Einstein, advised by Marcel Grossmann, began to study this in 1912 and corresponded with Levi-Civita about it in the period leading up to the publication of the first paper on gener...
متن کاملLevi-Civita spacetimes in multidimensional theories
We obtain the most general static cylindrically symmetric vacuum solutions of the Einstein field equations in (4+N) dimensions. Under the assumption of separation of variables, we construct a family of Levi-Civita-Kasner vacuum solutions in (4 + N). We discuss the dimensional reduction of the static solutions. Depending on the reduction procedure, they can be interpreted either as a scalar-vacu...
متن کاملReparametrization-Invariant Path Integral in GR and ”Big Bang” of Quantum Universe
The reparametrization-invariant generating functional for the unitary and causal perturbation theory in general relativity in a finite space-time is obtained. The region of validity of the FaddeevPopov-DeWitt functional is studied. It is shown that the invariant content of general relativity as a constrained system can be covered by two ”equivalent” unconstrained systems: the ”dynamic” (with ”d...
