We propose a field theory for the local metric in Stueckelberg--Horwitz--Piron (SHP) general relativity, a framework in which the evolution of classical four-dimensional (4D) worldlines $x^\mu \left( \tau \right)$ ($\mu = 0,1,2,3 $) is…
In classical Maxwell electrodynamics, charged particles following deterministic trajectories are described by currents that induce fields, mediating interactions with other particles. Statistical methods are used when needed to treat…
We construct a model for a particle in the framework of the theory of Stueckelberg, Horwitz and Piron (SHP) as an ensemble of events subject to the laws of covariant classical equilibrium statistical mechanics. The canonical and grand…
In general relativity, the Einstein equations provide spherically symmetric static spacetimes with dynamics defined as an evolution along the radial coordinate $r$. The geometrical sector becomes a one-dimensional mechanical system, with…
It is well-known that the 5D gauge structure of Stueckelberg-Horwitz-Piron (SHP) electrodynamics permits the exchange of mass between particles and the fields induced by their motion, even at the classical level. This phenomenon presents…
A consistent canonical classical and quantum dynamics in the framework of special relativity was formulated by Stueckelberg in 1941, and generalized to many body theory by Horwitz and Piron in 1973 (SHP). In this paper, this theory is…
A small deformation controlled by four free parameters to the Schwarzschild metric could be referred to a nonspinning black hole solution in alternative theories of gravity. Because such a non-Schwarzschild metric can be changed into a…
In this paper, we study fundamental aspects of electrostatics as a special case in Stueckelberg-Horwitz electromagnetic theory. In this theory, spacetime events $x^\mu(\tau)$ evolve in an unconstrained 8-dimensional phase space, interacting…
Basic principles of the Hamilton approach developed for the metric General Relativity (Einstein`s GR) are discussed. In particular, we derive the Hamiltonian of the metric GR in the explicit form. This Hamiltonian is a quadratic function of…
We formulate a spherical harmonically decomposed 1+1 scheme to self-consistently evolve the trajectory of a point particle and its gravitational metric perturbation to a Schwarzschild background spacetime. Following the work of Moncrief, we…
In a series of recent papers we developed a formulation of general relativity in which spacetime and the dynamics of matter evolve with a Poincar\'e invariant parameter $\tau$. In this paper, we apply the formalism to derive the metric…
In Hamiltonian GR, change has seemed to be missing, defined only asymptotically, or otherwise obscured at best. By construing change as essential time dependence, can one find change locally in Hamiltonian GR with spinors? This paper is…
The framework of a theory of gravity from the quantum to the classical regime is presented. The paradigm shift from full spacetime covariance to spatial diffeomorphism invariance, together with clean decomposition of the canonical…
We first consider the Klein-Gordon equation in the 6-dimensional space $M_{2,4}$ with signature $+ - - - - +$ and show how it reduces to the Stueckelberg equation in the 4-dimensional spacetime $M_{1,3}$. A field that satisfies the…
A completely Lorentz-invariant Bohmian model has been proposed recently for the case of a system of non-interacting spinless particles, obeying Klein-Gordon equations. It is based on a multi-temporal formalism and on the idea of treating…
Utilizing various gauges of the radial coordinate, we give a General Relativistic (GR) description of static spherically symmetric spacetimes with a massive point source and vacuum outside this singularity. We show that in GR there exists a…
This paper posits the existence of, and finds a candidate for, a variable change that allows quantum mechanics to be interpreted as quantum geometry. The Bohr model of the Hydrogen atom is thought of in terms of an indeterministic electron…
We study a classical reparametrization-invariant system, in which ``time'' is not a priori defined. It consists of a nonrelativistic particle moving in five dimensions, two of which are compactified to form a torus. There, assuming a…
We present a method for computing the evolution of a spacetime containing a massive particle and a black hole. The essential idea is that the gravitational field is evolved using full numerical relativity, with the particle generating a…
We generalize a space-time-symmetric (STS) extension of non-relativistic quantum mechanics (QM) to describe a particle moving in three spatial dimensions. In addition to the conventional time-conditional (Schr\"odinger) wave function…
