$n$-scales are a generalization of time-scales that has been put forward to unify continuous and discrete analyses in higher dimensions. In this paper we investigate massive scalar field theory on a regular $n$-Scale. We have given the…

The absence of an identified consequence at solar system scale of the cosmological space expansion is usually explained considering that space expansion does not affect local anysotropies in matter distribution. This can also be explained…

We study cosmological implications of a Lorentz invariance violating DGP-inspired braneworld scenario. A minimally coupled scalar field and a single, fixed-norm, Lorentz-violating timelike vector field within an interactive picture provide…

Most quantum gravity theories quantize space time on the order of Planck length (lp). Some of these theories, such as loop quantum gravity (LQG), predict that this discreetness could be manifested through Lorentz invariance violations (LIV)…

We discuss a Lorentz covariant space-time uncertainty relation, which agrees with that of Karolyhazy-Ng-van Dam when an observational time period delta t is larger than the Planck time lp. At delta t < lp, this uncertainty relation takes…

Quantisation of Lorentz invariant scalar field theory in Doplicher-Fredenhagen-Roberts (DFR) space-time, a Lorentz invariant, non-commutative space-time is studied. Absence of a unique Lagrangian in non-commutative space-time necessitates…

The concept of the random discretization of the space-time is suggested. It is the way to consistent compatible synthesis of quantum and relativistic principles and principle of geometrization. The basic idea of this concept is physical…

Space-Time in general relativity is a dynamical entity because it is subject to the Einstein field equations. The space-time metric provides different geometrical structures: conformal, volume, projective and linear connection. A deep…

The physical origin of spacetime discreteness remains a central open problem in quantum gravity, with most existing approaches relying on specific microscopic structures or model-dependent assumptions. In this letter, spacetime discreteness…

We construct the action of a relativistic spinning particle from a non-linear realization of a space-time odd vector extension of the Poincar\'e group. For particular values of the parameters appearing in the lagrangian the model has a…

A quantum theory of gravity implies a fine-grained structure of spacetime, which can be conveniently modeled as some form of pixelation at the Planck scale, with potentially observable consequences. In this work, we build upon previous…

Observations of the apparent times and positions of moving clocks as predicted by both `non-local' and `local' Lorentz Transformations are considered. Only local transformations respect translational invariance. Such transformations change…

In this note we review the problem of time delay of photons propagating in a spacetime with a metric that explicitly depends on the energy of the particles (Gravity-Rainbow approach). We show that corrections due to this approach -- which…

Some recent studies of the properties of D-particles suggest that in string theory a rather conventional description of spacetime might be available up to scales that are significantly smaller than the Planck length. We test this…

We consider spacetime to be a 4-dimensional differentiable manifold that can be split locally into time and space. No metric, no linear connection are assumed. Matter is described by classical fields/fluids. We distinguish electrically…

We define a noncommutative Lorentz symmetry for canonical noncommutative spaces. The noncommutative vector fields and the derivatives transform under a deformed Lorentz transformation. We show that the star product is invariant under…

We suggest that the difference between time and space is due to spontaneous symmetry breaking. In a theory with spinors the signature of the metric is related to the signature of the Lorentz-group. We discuss a higher symmetry that contains…

We show that the geometric structure of an arbitrary relativistic spacetime can be determined by the transformation groups associated with a collection of privileged coordinate systems.
