There exists a common view that for theories related by a 'duality', dual models typically may be taken ab initio to represent the same physical state of affairs, ie to correspond to the same …

This paper argues for the appropriateness of Maxwell spacetime as the minimal spacetime structure in which one may formulate a theory of Newtonian gravity. I begin by presenting an …
Teleparallel gravity shares many qualitative features with general relativity, but differs from it in the following way: whereas in general relativity, gravitation is a manifestation of space …

Abstract Harvey Brown's Physical Relativity defends a view about the nature of spacetime, which he calls the dynamical perspective, that goes beyond the familiar dichotomy of …
Over the past decade, the physics literature on torsionful non-relativistic gravity has burgeoned; more recently, philosophers have also begun to explore this topic. As of yet …
Eleanor Knox has argued that our concept of spacetime applies to whichever structure plays a certain functional role in the laws (the role of determining local inertial structure). I raise …
The aim of this thesis is to extend the success of a novel strategy for the interpretation of symmetry-related models—sophistication—to contemporary physical theories' internal …
There are well-known problems associated with the idea of (local) gravitational energy in general relativity. We offer a new perspective on those problems by comparison with …
