摘要：

It is shown that a generic quadro-quartic Cremonian space-time, which is endowed with one spatial and three time dimensions, can continuously evolve into a signature-reversed configuration, i.e. into the classical space-time featuring one temporal and three space dimensions. An interesting cosmological implication of this finding is mentioned. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
