A Nonlinear approach to measuring the effects of environmental variations

Mihaela D. Iftime

This paper presents a nonlinear approach to measurements a general framework for dealing with variations of environmental conditions. My method may prove promising to extensions be…

Gauge and General Relativity

M. D. Iftime

One of the main features of covariant theories, in particular general relativity, is that the field equation possesses gauge freedom associated with global diffeomorphisms of the u…

The Hole Argument. Physical Events and the Superspace

Mihaela D. Iftime

The 'hole argument'(the English translation of German 'Lochbetrachtung') was formulated by Albert Einstein in 1913 in his search for a relativistic theory of gravitation. The hole…

The Hole Argument for Covariant Theories

Mihaela Iftime, John Stachel

The hole argument was developed by Einstein in 1913 while he was searching for a relativistic theory of gravitation. Einstein used the language of coordinate systems and coordinate…

Fibered Manifolds, Natural Bundles, Structured Sets, G-Sets and all that: The Hole Story from Space Time to Elementary Particles

J. Stachel, M. Iftime

In this paper we review the hole argument for the space-time points and elementary particles and generalize the hole argument to include all geometric object fields and diffeomorph…

Stationary Cylindrically Symmetric Solution Approaching Einstein's Cosmological Solution

M. D. Iftime

Here we describe a stationary cylindrically symmetric solution of Einstein's equation with matter consisting of a positive cosmological and rotating dust term. The solution approac…
