| Title: | The hypersurface-deformation algebroid |
| Seminar: | GAP Seminar |
| Speaker: | Martin Bojowald, Penn State (Physics Department) |
| Abstract: |
| The symmetries and dynamics of space-time in general relativity follow from the algebroid of small deformations of spatial hypersurfaces. Quantum gravity modifies the algebroid in a characteristic way. It is not known how these modified algebroids could be integrated, but several intriguing effects, such as signature change at high density, have been derived. |
