A note on area variables in Regge calculus

John W. Barrett, Martin Rocek, Ruth M. Williams

We consider the possibility of setting up a new version of Regge calculus in four dimensions with areas of triangles as the basic variables rather than the edge-lengths. The diffic…

Relativistic spin networks and quantum gravity

John W. Barrett, Louis Crane

Relativistic spin networks are defined by considering the spin covering of the group SO(4), SU(2) times SU(2). Relativistic quantum spins are related to the geometry of the 2-dimen…

Principles of Discrete Time Mechanics: IV. The Dirac Equation, Particles and Oscillons

Keith Norton, George Jaroszkiewicz

We apply the principles of discrete time mechanics discussed in earlier papers to the first and second quantised Dirac equation. We use the Schwinger action principle to find the a…

Principles of Discrete Time Mechanics: III. Quantum Field Theory

Keith Norton, George Jaroszkiewicz

We apply the principles discussed in earlier papers to the construction of discrete time quantum field theories. We use the Schwinger action principle to find the discrete time fre…

Fractional Quantum Hall Effect Measurements at Zero g-Factor

D. R. Leadley, R. J. Nicholas, D. K. Maude +4

Fractional quantum Hall effect energy gaps have been measured in GaAs/GaAlAs heterojunctions as a function of Zeeman energy, which is varied by applying hydrostatic pressure up to…

Principles of Discrete Time Mechanics: II. Classical field Theory

George Jaroszkiewicz, Keith Norton

We apply the principles discussed in an earlier paper to the construction of discrete time field theories. We derive the discrete time field equations of motion and Noether's theor…
