Machian Time Is To Be Abstracted From What Change?
Edward Anderson
"It is utterly beyond our power to measure the changes of things by time. Quite the contrary, time is an abstraction at which we arrive through the changes of things." Ernst Mach […
Kerr-Newman Black Hole Thermodynamical State Space: Blockwise Coordinates
Edward Anderson
A coordinate system that blockwise-simplifies the Kerr-Newman black hole's thermodynamical state space Ruppeiner metric geometry is constructed, with discussion of the limiting cas…
Problem of Time in Quantum Gravity
Edward Anderson
The Problem of Time occurs because the `time' of GR and of ordinary Quantum Theory are mutually incompatible notions. This is problematic in trying to replace these two branches of…
Approaching the Problem of Time with a Combined Semiclassical-Records-Histories Scheme
Edward Anderson
I approach the Problem of Time and other foundations of Quantum Cosmology using a combined histories, timeless and semiclassical approach. This approach is along the lines pursued…
Relational Quadrilateralland. Analogues of Isospin and Hypercharge
Edward Anderson
I consider the momenta and conserved quantities for CP^2 interpreted as the space of quadrilaterals. This builds on seminar I and II's kinematics via making use of MacFarlane's wor…
Relational Quadrilateralland. I. The Classical Theory
Edward Anderson
Relational particle mechanics models bolster the relational side of the absolute versus relational motion debate, and are additionally toy models for the dynamical formulation of G…
