The causal ladder and the strength of K-causality. I [PDF]
, 2007 A unifying framework for the study of causal relations is presented. The causal relations are regarded as subsets of M x M and the role of the corresponding antisymmetry conditions in the construction of the causal ladder is stressed.

On the concept of Bell's local causality in local classical and quantum theory [PDF]
, 2014 The aim of this paper is to give a sharp definition of Bell's notion of local causality. To this end, first we unfold a framework, called local physical theory, integrating probabilistic and spatiotemporal concepts.
