Abstract (CDS, SAO/NASA ADS, Zbl 0989.83508)
An elementary account on chaos, its origins, and its physical impact in an infinite and multiply connected space-time is given. The anisotropy of the microwave background and the violation of the space-reflection symmetry (parity) by topological self-interference are reviewed in this context.

2a,b. The horizon at infinity of the Poincaré half-space H3. A
spacelike slice (F,Γ) is realized in H3 as a
polyhedron F with face-identification. The identifying transformations
generate a discrete group Γ which, applied to the polyhedron, gives a
tessellation Γ(F) of H3 with polyhedral images.
This tessellation induces by continuity also a tiling on the boundary of H3,
which is depicted here. The qualitative structure of the singular set depends
on the covering group Γ, for quasi-Fuchsian groups like here it is a
Jordan curve, for Schottky groups a Cantor set, cf. Refs. 7 and 8. The
spacelike slices can undergo global metrical deformations. The depicted tilings
correspond to 3-slices that are non-isometric, but have the same topology ((F,Γ)
~ I × S, S a Riemann surface, g(S) = 19, δ(Λ)
= 1.6) and curvature. These tilings make deformations as schematized in Fig. 1
quantitative. One can easily determine from them the chaotic or nearly chaotic
trajectories, which shadow each other over long times. Their lifts have initial
and end points in or close to the singular set, cf. Ref. 10. Projecting them
into the manifold, one obtains the chaotic nucleus.
