Reduced geometry and its role in explicit spacetime symmetry violation
Carlos M. Reyes, César Riquelme, Marco Schreck +1
The incompatibility of explicit diffeomorphism violation with Riemannian geometry within the gravitational Standard-Model Extension (SME) is revisited. We review two methods of how…
