Doubly Special Relativity (DSR) is a class of theories of relativistic motion with two observer-independent scales. We investigate the velocity of particles in DSR, defining velocity as the Poisson bracket of position with the appropriate hamiltonian, taking care of the non-trivial structure of the DSR phase space. We find the general expression for four-velocity, and we show further that the three-velocity of massless particles equals 1 for all DSR theories. The relation between the boost parameter and velocity is also clarified.

  1. On the Consistency of Covariant Light-Speed Variation in Doubly Special Relativity

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    In the DSR1 model with subluminal light-speed variation, a boosted box can overtake its own emitted photon above a critical rapidity, leading to tensions in particle counting and motion not resolved by relative locality.
