Causality in Discrete Time Physics Derived from Maupertuis Reduced Action Principle
Causality describes the process and consequences from an action: a cause has an effect. Causality is preserved in classical physics as well as in special and general theories of relativity. Surprisingly, causality as a relationship between the cause and its effect is in neither of these theories con...
