Role of Space-Time in Jaina's Syadváda
It is not possible to discuss all the Classical Space-time theories in that book, however, we mention some of them. (a) Leibnizian Space-Time which I have all the Classical
Space-Time Theories in that book, however, we mention
some of them. (b) Neo-Newtonian
Mainly in effect of or Galilean Space-Time 3 particular inertial frame (c) Aristotelian Space-Time. (d) Machian Space-Time. (e) Maxwellian Space-Time.
I summarize these Classical Space-Time Theories in a Table: Sn Name Structures | Symmetrics

ao(t) are arbitrary smooth functions of time.
