abstract
We propose a modification of special relativity in which a physical energy, which may be the Planck energy, joins the speed of light as an invariant, in spite of a complete relativity of inertial frames and agreement with Einstein's theory at low energies. This is accomplished by a non-linear modification of the action of the Lorentz group on momentum space, generated by adding a dilatation to each boost in such a way that the Planck energy remains invariant. The associated algebra has unmodified structure constants, and we highlight the similarities between the group action found and a transformation previously proposed by Fock. We also discuss the resulting modifications of field theory and suggest a modification of the equivalence principle which determines how the new theory is embedded in general relativity.

Applies parameterized dispersion to eccentric BBH burst waveforms, deriving a 2.5PN time-delay correction and Bessel amplitude modulation, then uses Fisher matrix to project LIGO constraints that are stronger than current bounds for Hořava-Lifschitz and extra-dimension models.
In the DSR1 model with subluminal light-speed variation, a boosted box can overtake its own emitted photon above a critical rapidity, leading to tensions in particle counting and motion not resolved by relative locality.
Quantum deformation of projective phase-space geometry induces a conformally deformed FLRW metric whose time-dependent corrections modify inflationary background equations, slow-roll parameters, and perturbations in a covariant manner.
