General covariance and the objectivity of space-time point-events
L. Lusanna, M. Pauri
"The last remnant of physical objectivity of space-time" is disclosed, beyond the Leibniz equivalence, in the case of a continuous family of spatially non-compact models of general…
General Covariance and the Objectivity of Space-Time Point-Events: The Physical Role of Gravitational and Gauge Degrees of Freedom in General Relativity
Luca Lusanna, Massimo Pauri
(Abridged Abstract) This paper deals with a number of technical achievements that are instrumental for a dis-solution of the so-called {\it Hole Argument} in general relativity. Th…
Ephemeral point-events: is there a last remnant of physical objectivity?
Massimo Pauri, Michele Vallisneri
For the past two decades, Einstein's Hole Argument (which deals with the apparent indeterminateness of general relativity due to the general covariance of the field equations) and…
Marzke-Wheeler coordinates for accelerated observers in special relativity
Massimo Pauri, Michele Vallisneri
In special relativity, the definition of coordinate systems adapted to generic accelerated observers is a long-standing problem, which has found unequivocal solutions only for the…
Classical roots of the Unruh and Hawking effects
Massimo Pauri, Michele Vallisneri
Although the Unruh and Hawking phenomena are commonly linked to field quantization in "accelerated" coordinates or in curved spacetimes, we argue that they are deeply rooted at the…
