A Weyl-Type Theorem for Geometrized Newtonian Gravity
Erik Curiel
I state and prove, in the context of a space having only the metrical and affine structure imposed by the geometrized version of Newtonian gravitational theory, a theorem analagous…
If Metrical Structure Were Not Dynamical, Counterfactuals in General Relativity Would Be Easy
Erik Curiel
General relativity poses serious problems for counterfactual propositions peculiar to it as a physical theory. Because these problems arise solely from the dynamical nature of spac…
Measure, Topology and Probabilistic Reasoning in Cosmology
Erik Curiel
I explain the difficulty of making various concepts of and relating to probability precise, rigorous and physically significant when attempting to apply them in reasoning about obj…
On the Existence of Spacetime Structure
E. Curiel
I examine the debate between substantivalists and relationalists about the ontological character of spacetime and conclude it is not well posed. I argue that the so-called Hole Arg…
