This article begins by reviewing the causal set approach in discrete quantum gravity. In our version of this approach a special role is played by covariant causal sets which we call $c$-causets. The importance of $c$-causets is that they…

A quantum theory is constructed for the system of a relativistic particle with mass m moving freely on the SL(2,R) group manifold. Applied to the cotangent bundle of SL(2,R), the method of Hamiltonian reduction allows us to split the…

On a manifold or a closed subset of a Euclidean vector space, a retraction enables to move in the direction of a tangent vector while staying on the set. Retractions are a versatile tool to perform computational tasks such as optimization,…

We present a generalized reduction procedure which encompasses the one based on the momentum map and the projection method. By using the duality between manifolds and ring of functions defined on them, we have cast our procedure in an…

A scheme for an algebraic quantization of the causal sets of Sorkin et al. is presented. The suggested scenario is along the lines of a similar algebraization and quantum interpretation of finitary topological spaces due to Zapatrin and…

Laplacian-based methods are popular for the dimensionality reduction of data lying in $\mathbb{R}^N$. Several theoretical results for these algorithms depend on the fact that the Euclidean distance locally approximates the geodesic distance…

We demonstrate the breakdown of several fundamentals of Lorentzian causality theory in low regularity. Most notably, chronological futures (defined naturally using locally Lipschitz curves) may be non-open, and may differ from the…

We fully develop the concept of causal symmetry introduced in Class. Quant. Grav. 20 (2003) L139. A causal symmetry is a transformation of a Lorentzian manifold (V,g) which maps every future-directed vector onto a future-directed vector. We…
