Space-time: emerging vs. existing
Abstract
Description
The concept of the space-time as emerging in the world phase transition, vs. a priori existing, is put forward. The theory of gravity with two basic symmetries, the global affine one and the general covariance, is developed. Implications for the Universe are indicated.
