Paperback. Series: Fundamental Theories of Physics. Num Pages: 524 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: PDE; PHK; PHP; PHR. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 26. Weight in Grams: 727.
This volume provides a detailed discussion of the mathematical aspects and physical applications of a new geometrical structure of space-time, based on a generalization ("deformation") of the usual Minkowski space, as supposed to be endowed with a metric whose coefficients depend on the energy. This new five-dimensional scheme (Deformed Relativity in Five Dimensions, DR5) represents a true generalization of the usual Kaluza-Klein (KK) formalism.

Reviews for Deformed Spacetime
From the reviews: "This book deals with geometrizations of physical fields. The main emphasis is on theories with 4 and those with 5 space-time dimensions. Several types of deformations are considered … . Almost 90 pages are given to the appendices which contain a lot of formulas in several subcases for the material used in ... Read more
