THE CHESHIRE CAT PROBLEM AND OTHER SPATIAL OBSTACLES TO BACKWARDS TIME TRAVEL.

The article focuses on the Cheshire cat problem and other spatial hindrances or obstacles to backwards time travel. Apparent counterexamples to the "no coincident objects" principle involve sortal terms whose applications differ over times or worlds. The three-dimensionality, who talks instead of ob...
