Pair Space in Classical Mechanics III. Some Four-Body Central Configurations
Alon Drory
We study central configurations in the four body problem, i.e., configurations in which the forces on all the bodies point to a fixed, single point in space. The newly formulated p…
Pair Space in Classical Mechanics I. The Three-Body Problem
Alon Drory
I introduce an extended configuration space for classical mechanical systems, called pair-space, which is spanned by the relative positions of all the pairs of bodies. To overcome…
Pair Space in Classical Mechanics II. N-Body Central Configurations
Alon Drory
A previous work introduced pair space, which is spanned by the center of mass of a system and the relative positions (pair positions) of its constituent bodies. Here, I show that i…
Failure and Uses of Jaynes' Principle of Transformation Groups
Alon Drory
Bertand's paradox is a fundamental problem in probability that casts doubt on the applicability of the indifference principle by showing that it may yield contradictory results, de…
The necessity of the second postulate in special relativity
Alon Drory
Many authors noted that the principle of relativity together with space-time homogeneity and isotropy restrict the form of the coordinate transformations from one inertial frame to…
The Function of the Second Postulate in Special Relativity
Alon Drory
Many authors noted that the principle of relativity, together with space-time symmetries, suffices to derive Lorentz-like coordinate transformations between inertial frames. These…
Testing for Anisotropy of Space via an Extension of Special Relativity
Alon Drory
In special relativity, testing for spatial anisotropy usually means testing for anisotropic propagation of light. This paper explores a different possibility, in which light is sti…
Theory of continuum percolation III. Low density expansion
Alon Drory, Brian Berkowitz, Giorgio Parisi +1
We use a previously introduced mapping between the continuum percolation model and the Potts fluid (a system of interacting s-states spins which are free to move in the continuum)…
Exact solution of a one-dimensional continuum percolation model
Alon Drory
I consider a one dimensional system of particles which interact through a hard core of diameter $\si$ and can connect to each other if they are closer than a distance . The mean…
Theory of continuum percolation II. Mean field theory
Alon Drory
I use a previously introduced mapping between the continuum percolation model and the Potts fluid to derive a mean field theory of continuum percolation systems. This is done by in…
Theory of continuum percolation I. General formalism
Alon Drory
The theoretical basis of continuum percolation has changed greatly since its beginning as little more than an analogy with lattice systems. Nevertheless, there is yet no comprehens…
Theory of Second and Higher Order Stochastic Processes
Alon Drory
This paper presents a general approach to linear stochastic processes driven by various random noises. Mathematically, such processes are described by linear stochastic differentia…
