Hackett, Jonathan2007-09-272007-09-272007-09-272007http://hdl.handle.net/10012/3351Two different works in mathematical physics are presented: A construction of conformal infinity in null and spatial directions is constructed for the Rainbow-flat space-time corresponding to doubly special relativity. From this construction a definition of asymptotic DSRness is put forward which is com- patible with the correspondence principle of Rainbow gravity. Furthermore a result equating asymptotically flat space-times with asymptotically DSR spacetimes is presented. An overview of microlocality in braided ribbon networks is presented. Follow- ing this, a series of definitions are presented to explore the concept of microlocality and the topology of ribbon networks. Isolated substructure of ribbon networks are introduced, and a theorem is proven that allows them to be relocated. This is fol- lowed by a demonstration of microlocal translations. Additionally, an investigation into macrolocality and the implications of invariants in braided ribbon networks are presented.enQuantum GravityGeneral RelativityMaster ThesisPhysics
