“…As Pitts states, examples include the identity matrix, the Lorentz matrix diag (−1, 1, 1, 1), fixed Dirac γ µ matrices, Lie group structure constants, and the Kronecker delta and Levi-Civita alternating symbol. Other possible examples of confined objects include the metric signature [18]; 15 and the global topology of spacetime [118,123]. 16 Smolin implies in [123, p. 204] that all such confined objects should ultimately be excised from our final theories of physics -exploring the extent to which this is both true and possible is an interesting task for future pursuit.…”
