Causal set as a discretized phase spacetime
Roman Sverdlov
The first goal of this paper is to show that discreteness, locality, and relativistic covariance can peacefully coexist if the ordinary spacetime (OST) is replaced with phase space…
A use of geometric calculus to reduce Berezin integral to the limit of a Riemann sum
Thomas Scanlon, Roman Sverdlov
Berezin integration of functions of anticommuting Grassmann variables is usually seen as a formal operation, sometimes even defined via differentiation. Using the formalism of geom…
Ph.D. Thesis: Quantum Field Theory and Gravity in Causal Sets
Roman Sverdlov
This is is a copy of dissertation that I have submitted in defense of my ph.d. thesis, with some minor changes that I have made since then. The goal of the project is to generalize…
Dynamics for causal sets with matter fields: A Lagrangian-based approach
Roman Sverdlov, Luca Bombelli
We present a framework for the dynamics of causal sets and coupled matter fields, which is a simplification and generalization of an approach we recently proposed. Given a set of f…
