Relational Particle Models. II. Use as toy models for quantum geometrodynamics
E. Anderson
Relational particle models are employed as toy models for the study of the Problem of Time in quantum geometrodynamics. These models' analogue of the thin sandwich is resolved. It…
Relational Particle Models. I. Reconciliation with standard classical and quantum theory
E. Anderson
This paper concerns the absolute versus relative motion debate. The Barbour and Bertotti 1982 work may be viewed as an indirectly set up relational formulation of a portion of Newt…
Geodesics, the Equivalence Principle and Singularities in Higher-dimensional General Relativity and Braneworlds
Edward Anderson, Reza Tavakol
The geodesics of a spacetime seldom coincide with those of an embedded submanifold of codimension one. We investigate this issue for higher-dimensional general relativity-like mode…
Relational particle models as toy models for quantum gravity and quantum cosmology
E. Anderson
It is argued that substantial portions of both Newtonian particle mechanics and general relativity can be viewed as relational (rather than absolute) theories. I furthermore use th…
