Tensor distributions on signature-changing space-times
Irregularities in the metric tensor of a signature-changing space-time suggest that field equations on such space-times might be regarded as distributional. We review the formalism of tensor distributions on differentiable manifolds, and examine to what extent rigorous meaning can be given to field equations in the presence of signature-change, in particular those involving covariant derivative...
متن کاملThe Changing Nature of Chameleon Signature Schemes
Chameleon Signatures are based on the traditional hash-and-sign paradigm. A secure scheme provides the properties of non-transferability and non-repudiation. That is, the contents of the message may not be disclosed without the signer’s consent. The scheme also creates an undeniable commitment on the part of the signer to the message. The chameleon hash function is a trapdoor one-way function, ...
متن کاملScalar and spinor fields in signature-changing spacetimes.
The propagation of scalar and spinor fields in a spacetime whose metric changes signature is analyzed. Recent work of Dray et al. on particle production from signature change for a (massless) scalar field is reviewed, and an attempt is made to extend their analysis to the case of a (massless) spin-half field. In contrast to their results for a scalar field, it is shown here—for SL(2, C) spinors...
متن کاملCasimir effect in a two dimensional signature changing spacetime
In this paper we study the Casimir effect for free massless scalar fields propagating on a two-dimensional cylinder with a metric that admits a change of signature from Lorentzian to Euclidean.
متن کاملSignature Changing Space-times and the New Generalised Functions
A signature changing spacetime is one where an initially Riemannian manifold with Euclidean signature evolves into the Lorentzian universe we see today. This concept is motivated by problems in causality implied by the isotropy and homogeneity of the universe. As initially time and space are indistinguishable in signature change, these problems are removed. There has been some dispute as to the...
