CAUSALITY IMPLIES THE LORENTZ GROUP

Journal Article · · J. Math. Phys. (N.Y)
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.1704140· OSTI ID:4053930
Causality is represented by a partial ordering on Minkowski space, and the group of all automorphisms that preserve this partial ordering is shown to be generated by the inhomogeneous Lorentz group and dilatations:. (auth)
