Could time be discrete on some unimaginably small scale? Exploring the idea in depth, this book systematically builds the theory up from scratch, beginning with the historical, physical and mathematical background to the chronon hypothesis. Covering classical and quantum discrete-time mechanics, the author presents all of the tools needed to formulate and develop applications of discrete-time mechanics in a number of areas, including classical and quantum mechanics and field theories.
