The Group of Large Diffeomorphisms in General Relativity
Domenico Giulini
We investigate the group of large diffeomorphisms fixing a frame at a point for general closed 3-manifolds. We derive some general structural properties of these groups which relat…
Quantum Mechanics On Spaces With Finite Fundamental Group
Domenico Giulini
We consider in general terms dynamical systems with finite-dimensional, non-simply connected configuration-spaces. The fundamental group is assumed to be finite. We analyze in full…
A Euclidean Bianchi Model Based On
Domenico Giulini
We explain how the round four-sphere can be sliced along homogeneous 3~-~manifolds of topology . This defines a Euclidean Bianchi type IX model for Einstein's equations…
On Galilei Invariance in Quantum Mechanics and the Bargmann Superselection Rule
Domenico Giulini
We reinvestigate Bargmann's superselection rule for the overall mass of particles in ordinary quantum mechanics with Galilei invariant interaction potential. We point out that…
Diffeomorphism invariant subspaces in Witten's 2+1 quantum gravity on
Domenico Giulini, Jorma Louko
We address the role of large diffeomorphisms in Witten's 2+1 gravity on the manifold . In a ``spacelike sector" quantum theory that treats the large diffeomorph…
