I examine the structure of the deformed Lorentz transformations in one of the recently-proposed schemes with two observer-independent scales. I develop a technique for the analysis of general combinations of rotations and deformed boosts.…
Symmetry breaking is discussed in this paper which comes from the Lorentz transformation of special relativity and changes our view that two relatively moving bodies always have the relative speed equal in magnitude and opposite in…
The Lorentz transformation is entirely derived from length contraction, itself established through the known light-clock thought experiment . This makes the derivation accessible to beginning students once Eintein's two postulates have been…
We extend a recent approach to Deformed Special Relativity based on deformed dispersion laws, entailing modified Lorentz transformations and, at the same time, noncommutative geometry and intrinsically discrete spacetime. In so doing we…
Decompositions of the world into systems have typically been regarded as arbitrary extra-theoretical assumptions in discussions of quantum measurement. One can instead regard decompositions as part of the theory, and ask what conditions…
We show that General Relativity and other geometrical theories can be viewed as a degenerate Otto cycle with only heat-exchange legs in emergent gravity. Including work-producing legs yields controlled violations of local Lorentz invariance…
Potential-based formulation with generalized Lorenz gauge can be used in the quantization of electromagnetic fields in inhomogeneous media. However, one often faces the redundancy of modes when finding eigenmodes from potential-based…
Maxwell's equations are valid only in Lorentz frame i.e. in inertial frame where the Einstein synchronization procedure is used to assign values of the time coordinate. Einstein time order must be applied and kept in consistent way in both…
We discuss three manners to implement Lorentz symmetry breaking in a superfield theory formulated within the superfield formalism, that is, deformation of the supersymmetry algebra, introducing of an extra superfield whose components can…
A new relativistic transformation in the velocity space (here named the differential Lorentz transformation) is formulated solely from the principle of relativity and the invariance of the speed of light. The differential Lorentz…
Two common misconceptions about the theory of Special Relativity that are actively taught in textbooks are discussed. It is shown, first, that the Lorentz transformations are actually transformations of the coordinates of a photon, not the…
Compositing is one of the most common operations in photo editing. To generate realistic composites, the appearances of foreground and background need to be adjusted to make them compatible. Previous approaches to harmonize composites have…
After having identified all the possible relationships between the electric field and the magnetic field in a given inertial reference frame we derive the transformation equations for the components of these fields. Special relativity is…
In this extended note a critical discussion of an extension of the Lorentz transformations for velocities faster than the speed of light given recently by Hill and Cox is provided. The presented approach reveals the connection between…
I here investigate what is arguably the most significant residual challenge for the proposal of phenomenologically viable "DSR deformations" of relativistic kinematics, which concerns the description of composite particles, such as atoms.…
The field equations in modified gravity theories possess an important decoupling property with respect to certain classes of nonholonomic frames. This allows us to construct generic off--diagonal solutions depending on all spacetime…
The underlying mathematics of the wavelet formalism is a representation of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group or the affine group. Within the framework of wavelets, it is possible to define the ``window'' which allows us to introduce a…
The structure of the Lorentz transformations follows purely from the absence of privileged inertial reference frames and the group structure (closure under composition) of the transformations---two assumptions that are simple and physically…
For functions defined on C^n or (R_+)^n we construct a dequantization transform, which is closely related to the Maslov dequantization. The subdifferential at the origin of a dequantized polynomial coincides with its Newton polytope. For…
We describe the space of (all) invariant deformation quantizations on the hyperbolic plane as solutions of the evolution of a second order hyperbolic differential operator. The construction is entirely explicit and relies on non-commutative…
