What is a Singularity in Geometrized Newtonian Gravitation
Singularities Singularity Theorems Geometrized-Newtonian Gravitation Cosmology
2016/6/15
I discuss singular spacetimes in the context of the geometrized formulation of Newtonian gravitation. I argue first that geodesic incompleteness is a natural criterion for when a model of geometrized ...

This paper explores the scientific sources behind Kant’s early dynamical theory of matter in 1755, with a focus on two main Kant’s writings: Universal Natural History and Theory of the Heavens and On ...

This paper elaborates on the following correspondence theorem (which has been defended and formally proved elsewhere): if theory T has been empirically successful in a domain of applications A, but wa...
Newtonian Emanation, Spinozism, Measurement, and the Baconian Origins of the Laws of Nature
Newton, Bacon, Spinoza, emanation, formal causation, laws of nature, measurement
2011/9/8
This paper investigates what Newton could have meant in a now famous passage from De Gravitatione (hereafter “DeGrav”) that “space is as it were an emanative effect of God” (21). First I offer a caref...
Space-time relationism in Newtonian and relativistic physics
space time relativity relationism
2008/4/21
I argue that there is a natural relationist interpretation of Newtonian and relativistic non-quantum physics. Although relationist, this interpretation does not fall prey to the traditional objections...
This paper follows up a debate as to the consistency of Newtonian cosmology. Whereas Malament (1995) has shown that Newtonian cosmology *is* not inconsistent, to date there has been no analysis of Nor...
Mathematical Models in Newton’s Principia: A New View of the “Newtonian Style”
Isaac Newton Principia (hypothetical-deductive) methodology
2008/3/31
In this essay I argue against Bernard I. Cohen’s influential account of Newton’s methodology in the Principia: the “Newtonian Style”. The crux of Cohen’s account is the successive adaptation of “menta...
