Abstract
GIANNETTO, Enrico; GIUNTA, Gaetano and MARINO, Domenico. Chaotic Space-Time. discus.filos [online]. 2014, vol.15, n.24, pp.87-97. ISSN 0124-6127.
In this paper we have shown how the consideration of a chaotic mechanics supplies a redefinition of special-relativistic space-time. In particular chaotic time means no possibility of defining temporal ordering and implies a breakdown of causality. The new chaotic transformations among 'undetermined' space-time coordinates are no more linear and homogeneous. The principles of inertia and of energy-impulse conservation are no longer well defined and in any case no more invariant.
Keywords : Chaos; non-linear dynamics; relativity; space-time.
