The Varieties of Unity: Sounding Unified Theories 1920–1930 so close at hand for many physicists and mathematicians as in the third decade of the twentieth century. And if there were those who saw a great promise in this, there were equally those who opposed it.. Even among its partisans, just what such an ‘ultimate’ might resemble was not clear, its scope

Indiscernibles, General Covariance, and Other Symmetries: The Case for Non-Reductive Relationalismhe noted that if the equations of motion are covariant under arbitrary coordinate transformations, then particle coordinates at a given time can be varied arbitrarily — they are underdetermined — even if their values at all earlier times are held fixed. It is the same for the values of fields. The a

The unique nature of cosmologycs, and is now part of mainstream science, with a well-established standard model confirmed by various strands of evidence (.; .; .). Nevertheless because of its nature, it is different from any other branch of the natural sciences. The major issue causing the differences is the uniqueness of its ob

Gravitational Lensing from a Space-Time Perspectiveor a background metric. The intent is to construct a conceptual framework so that lensing theory fits covariantly into general relativity and then to see how the usual perturbation approach is related to it.

Quasi-Local Energyection of the future and past cones from nearby time-like separated points. The calculation uses the canonical formalism on a null cone and defines the quasi-local energy as a two-surface integral over the convergence of the past cone minus a similar integral over a surface in Minkowski space.
