Local structure of sprinkled causal sets

The Structure of Causal Sets

More often than not, recently popular structuralist interpretations of physical theories leave the central concept of a structure insufficiently precisified. The incipient causal sets approach to quantum gravity offers a paradigmatic case of a physical theory predestined to be interpreted in structuralist terms. It is shown how employing structuralism lends itself to a natural interpretation of...

Learning Causal Structure from Overlapping Variable Sets

Modern data-analysis methods are typically applicable to a single dataset. In particularly, they cannot integratively analyze datasets containing different, but overlapping, sets of variables. We show that by employing causal models instead of models based on the concept of association alone, it is possible to make additional interesting inferences by integrative analysis than by independent an...

فرض کنیمr یک حلقه تعویض پذیر ویکدار موضعی باشدو(j(r رایکال جیکوبسن r و(z(r مجموعه مقسوم علیه های صفر حلقه r باشد.گوییم r یک حلقه z- موضعی است هرگاه j(r)^2=. .همچنین برای یک حلقه تعویض پذیر r فرض کنیم c یک عنصر ناصفر از (z( r باشد با این خاصیت که cz( r)=0 گوییم حلقه موضعی r یک حلقه c - موضعی است هرگاه و{0 و z(r)^2={cو z(r)^3=0, نیز xz( r)=0 نتیجه دهد که x عضو {c,0 } است. در این پایان نامه ساخ...

Causal sets and the deep structure of spacetime

The causal set approach to quantum gravity embodies the concepts of causality and discreteness. This article explores some foundational and conceptual issues within causal set theory.
