Gravity and Antigravity with Discrete Interactions: Alternatives I and II

Manoelito M de Souza

Questioning the experimental basis of continuous descriptions of fundamental interactions we discuss classical gravity as an effective continuous first-order approximation of a dis…

Discrete and finite Genral Relativity

Manoelito M. de Souza, Robson N. Silveira

We develop the General Theory of Relativity in a formalism with extended causality that describes physical interaction through discrete, transversal and localized pointlike fields.…

Finite Discrete Electromagnetic Field Theory

Manoelito M de Souza, Jair V. Costa, Adriano S. Pedra

The classical electromagnetic field of a spinless point electron is described in a formalism with extended causality by discrete finite point-vector fields with discrete and locali…

Classical Electrodynamics and the Quantum Nature of Light

Manoelito M. de Souza

A review of old inconsistencies of Classical Electrodynamics (CED) and of some new ideas that solve them is presented. Problems with causality violating solutions of the wave equat…

Causality and Self-consistency in Classical Electrodynamics

Manoelito M. de Souza

We present a pedagogical review of old inconsistencies of Classical Electrodynamics and of some new ideas that solve them. Problems with the electron equation of motion and with th…

Electrodynamics Classical Inconsistencies

Manoelito M. de Souza

The problems of Classical Electrodynamics with the electron equation of motion and with non-integrable singularity of its self-field stress tensor are well known. They are conseque…
