Light Cone Consistency in Bimetric General Relativity
General relativity can be formally derived as a flat spacetime theory, but the consistency of the resulting curved metric’s light cone with the flat metric’s null cone has not been adequately considered. If the two are inconsistent, then gravity is not just another field in flat spacetime after all. Here we discuss recent progress in describing the conditions for consistency and prospects for s...
متن کاملA General Variational Principle of Classical Field and Its Application to General relativity I
A general variational principle of classical fields with a Lagrangian containing field quantity and its derivatives of up to the N-order is presented. Noether’s theorem is derived. The generalized Hamilton-Jacobi’s equation for the Hamilton’s principal functional is obtained. These results are surprisingly in great harmony with each other. They will be applied to general relativity in the subse...
متن کاملVariational principle for general diffusion problems
We employ the Monge-Kantorovich mass transfer theory to study existence of solutions for a large class of parabolic partial differential equations. We deal with non-homogeneous nonlinear diffusion problems (of Fokker-Planck type) with time dependent coefficients. This work greatly extends the applicability of known techniques based on constructing weak solutions by approximation with time-inter...
متن کاملThe Maximum Tension Principle in General Relativity
I suggest that classical General Relativity in four spacetime dimensions incorporates a Principal of Maximal Tension and give arguments to show that the value of the maximal tension is c 4 4G . The relation of this principle to other, possibly deeper, maximal principles is discussed, in particular the relation to the tension in string theory. In that case it leads to a purely classical relation...
متن کامل$(varphi_1, varphi_2)$-variational principle
In this paper we prove that if $X $ is a Banach space, then for every lower semi-continuous bounded below function $f, $ there exists a $left(varphi_1, varphi_2right)$-convex function $g, $ with arbitrarily small norm, such that $f + g $ attains its strong minimum on $X. $ This result extends some of the well-known varitional principles as that of Ekeland [On the variational principle, J. Ma...
