Abstract

We define an evolution of multiple particles on a discrete manifold GG. Each particle alone moves on geodesics and particles can interact if they are on the same facet. They move deterministically and reversibly on the frame bundle PP of the abstract simplicial complex GG. Particles are signed and each is represented by a totally ordered maximal simplex pPp \in P in GG. The motion of divisors on PP also defines a time dependent reversible deformation of space.
