The class of Zeeman topologies on spacetimes in the frame of relativity theory is considered to be of powerful intuitive justification, satisfying a sequence of properties with physical meaning, such as the group of homeomorphisms under…
In this article we first observe that the Path topology of Hawking, King and MacCarthy is an analogue, in curved spacetimes, of a topology that was suggested by Zeeman as an alternative topology to his so-called Fine topology in Minkowski…
The order horismos induces the Zeeman $Z$ topology, which is coarser than the Fine Zeeman Topology $F$. The causal curves in a spacetime under $Z$ are piecewise null. $F$ is considered to be the most physical topology in a spacetime…
A basic problem in the theory of partially ordered vector spaces is to characterise those cones on which every order-isomorphism is linear. We show that this is the case for every Archimedean cone that equals the inf-sup hull of the sum of…
We work on the family of topologies for the Minkowski manifold M. We partially order this family by inclusion to form the lattice \Sigma(M), and focus on the sublattice Z of topologies that induce the Euclidean metric space on every time…
We give an exact mathematical construction of a spacelike order $<$, which is dual to the standard chronological order $\ll$ in the $n$-dimensional Minkowski space $M^n$, and we discuss its order-theoretic, geometrical as well as its…
In this thesis we propose and study a theory of ordered locales, a type of point-free space equipped with a preorder structure on its frame of opens. It is proved that the Stone-type duality between topological spaces and locales lifts to a…
We extend the Stone duality between topological spaces and locales to include order: there is an adjunction between the category of preordered topological spaces satisfying the so-called open cone condition, and the newly defined category…
The class of LOTS (linearly ordered topological spaces, i.e. spaces equipped with a topology generated by a linear order) contains many important spaces, like the set of real numbers, the set of rational numbers and the ordinals. Such…
We develop causality theory for upper semi-continuous distributions of cones over manifolds generalizing results from mathematical relativity in two directions: non-round cones and non-regular differentiability assumptions. We prove the…
Light scattering in random media is usually considered within the framework of the three-dimensional Anderson universality class, with modifications for the vector nature of electromagnetic waves. We propose that the linear dispersiveness…
Different notions for order convergence have been considered by various authors. Associated to every notion of order convergence corresponds a topology, defined by taking as the closed sets those subsets of the poset satisfying that no net…
To a significant extent, the metrical and topological properties of spacetime can be described purely order-theoretically. The $K^+$ relation has proven to be useful for this purpose, and one could wonder whether it could serve as the…
While topology given by a linear order has been extensively studied, this cannot be said about the case when the order is given only locally. The aim of this paper is to fill this gap. We consider relation between local orderability and…
We discuss the topological nature of the boundary spacetime, the conformal infinity of the ambient cosmological metric. Due to the existence of a homothetic group, the bounding spacetime must be equipped not with the usual Euclidean metric…
In this paper we will study the representations of isomorphisms between bases of topological spaces. It turns out that the perfect setting for this study is that of regular open subsets of complete metric spaces, but we have achieved some…
Standard vision models treat objects as independent points in Euclidean space, unable to capture hierarchical structure like parts within wholes. We introduce Worldline Slot Attention, which models objects as persistent trajectories through…
Topological order is a new type order that beyond Landau's symmetry breaking theory. The topological entanglement entropy provides a universal quantum number to characterize the topological order in a system. The topological entanglement…
The two closely related Lorentz-invariant partial orders of space-time are distinguished with respect to the existence of antichain cutsets and the possibility of grading. World lines of particles with or without mass are the maximal chains…
The aim of this short note is to develop a (co)homology theory for topological spaces together with the specialisation preorder. A known way to construct such a (co)homology is to define a partial order on the topological space starting…
