“…The possibility of having a departure from the identification between the β parameter and velocity v is usually not taken into account in Lorentz-invariance violation literature (see exempli gratia [22,23]), and maybe should be better deepened.…”

“…The only problem we should be careful about is the non trivial relation between lengths and time intervals. In fact, while according to (22) in χ α coordinates our photons have trivial wordlines…”

Relative Locality is a recent approach to the quantum-gravity problem which allows to tame nonlocality effects which may rise in some models which try to describe Planck-scale physics. I here explore the effect of Relative Locality on basic special-relativistic phenomena. In particular I study the deformations due to Relative Locality of special-relativistic transformation laws for momenta at all orders in the rapidity parameter ξ. I underline how those transformations also define the RL characteristic (momentum-dependent) invariant metric.

“…This framework, Finsler geometry, is a natural extension of Riemannian geometry (see section 2 for a brief introduction). Effectively employed by Randers [12] to study dynamics of charged particles coupled to a fixed background field, Finsler geometry has been used to study a number of special limits of the SME where certain background fields are allowed to couple to standard fields [13], [14]. The associated SME lagrangians lead to Finsler structures which do not, in general, define Randers-type geometries.…”
Certain momentum-dependent terms in the fermion sector of the Lorentz-violating Standard Model Extension (SME) yield solvable classical lagrangians of a type not mentioned in the literature. These cases yield new relatively simple examples of Finsler and pseudo-Finsler structures. One of the cases involves antisymmetric dtype terms and yields a new example of a relatively simple covariant lagrangian.
“…This line element also was found in [11]. Some works about Lorentz violation can be seen in [12,13,14,15,16,44,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28] and works about VSR can be found in [29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36].…”
The action for a (3+1)-dimensional particle in very special relativity is studied. It is proved that massless particles only travel in effective (2 + 1)-dimensional space-time. It is remarkable that this action can be written as an action for a relativistic particle in a background gauge field and it is shown that this field causes the dimensional reduction. A new symmetry for this system is found. Furthermore, a general action with restored Lorentz symmetry is proposed for this system. It is shown that this new action contains very special relativity and two-time physics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
