Approaching space time trough velocity in Doubly Special Relativity
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss the definition of velocity as dE/d|p|, where E,p are the energy and momentum of a particle, in Doubly Special Relativity (DSR). If this definition matches dx/dt appropriate for the space-time sector, then space-time can in principle be built consistently with the existence of an invariant length scale. We show that, within different possible definitions, this program fails, and this is a strong indication that the DSR spacetime sector cannot be considered a continuous differentiable manifold.

متن کاملConformal Generators and Doubly Special Relativity Theories
In this paper, the relation between the modified Lorenz boosts, proposed in the doubly relativity theories and a linear combination of Conformal Group generators in R1,d−1 is investigated. The introduction of a new generator is proposed in order to deform the Conformal Group to achieve the connection conjectured. The new generator is obtained trough a formal dimensional reduction from a free ma...
متن کامل2 00 3 Doubly Special Relativity and de Sitter space
In this paper we recall the construction of Doubly Special Relativity (DSR) as a theory with energy-momentum space being the four dimensional de Sitter space. Then the bases of the DSR theory can be understood as different coordinate systems on this space. We investigate the emerging geometrical picture of Doubly Special Relativity by presenting the basis independent features of DSR that includ...
متن کاملPosition Space Versions of Magueijo-smolin Doubly Special Relativity Proposal and the Problem of Total Momentum
We present and discuss two different possibilities to construct position space version for the Magueijo-Smolin (MS) doubly special relativity proposal. The first possibility is to start from ordinary special relativity and then to define conserved momentum in special way. It generates MS invariant as well as nonlinear MS transformations on the momentum space, leading to consistent picture for o...
متن کاملPhase Spaces of Doubly Special Relativity
We show that depending on the direction of deformation of κ-Poincaré algebra (time-like, space-like, or light-like) the associated phase spaces of single particle in Doubly Special Relativity theories have the energy-momentum spaces of the form of de Sitter, anti-de Sitter, and flat space, respectively.
