Discrete and finite Genral Relativity
We develop the General Theory of Relativity in a formalism with extended
causality that describes physical interaction through discrete, transversal and
localized pointlike fields. The homogeneous field equations are then solved for
a finite, singularity-free, point-like field that we associate to a ``classical
graviton". The standard Einstein's continuous formalism is retrieved by means
of an averaging process, and its continuous solutions are determined by the
chosen imposed symetry. The Schwarzschild metric is obtained by the imposition
of spherical symmetry on the averaged field.Comment: Modified conform the version to appear in Classical and Quantum

Coupled scalar fields Oscillons and Breathers in some Lorentz Violating Scenarios
In this work we discuss the impact of the breaking of the Lorentz symmetry on
the usual oscillons, the so-called flat-top oscillons, and the breathers. Our
analysis is performed by using a Lorentz violation scenario rigorously derived
in the literature. We show that the Lorentz violation is responsible for the
origin of a kind of deformation of the configuration, where the field
configuration becomes oscillatory in a localized region near its maximum value.
Furthermore, we show that the Lorentz breaking symmetry produces a displacement
of the oscillon along the spatial direction, the same feature is present in the
case of breathers. We also show that the effect of a Lorentz violation in the
flat-top oscillon solution is responsible by the shrinking of the flat-top.
Furthermore, we find analytically the outgoing radiation, this result indicates
that the amplitude of the outgoing radiation is controlled by the Lorentz
breaking parameter, in such away that this oscillon becomes more unstable than
its symmetric counterpart, however, it still has a long living nature
