Preface The first four chapters of Special Algebra for Special Relativity present an all-number mathematical structure for Special Relativity. The fifth chapter restricts a measurable quantity to finite precision by limiting place-value digits to a maximum count before and after the decimal point. For example, each side of a unit square has small magnitude finite imprecision added to it. The finite imprecision adder is a non-finite type of number because it isn’t knowable. Finite imprecision larger than a measurable quantity is the division reciprocal of small magnitude imprecision. In Special Relativity large magnitude imprecision is added to time-space hyperbolic angle “” (that relates to speed by “v = c*tanh”) using a Lorentz Transformation. Large magnitude imprecision models electromagnetism by uniting Maxwell’s Equations with the Dirac Equation. Precision improves with time to cause measurable dynamics. Electromagnetic field force density components are calculated using the same process by which electric current density components are calculated. Included are energy density and Poynting Vector components. Uniting those three empirically derived electromagnetic phenomena into one mathematical model is new and that success suggests quantities in our geometric world actually do have finite imprecision and suggests finite imprecision numbers should also apply to more modern theories of physics.
ix SYNOPSIS – FINITE PRECISION FOR NUMBERS
Finite Precision for Numbers Real numbers are replaced by rational numbers for which the count of known or knowable place-value digits before and after the decimal point is limited to Aristotle’s potential infinity (the finite, temporary, largest natural number). Outside that limit the rational number is unknown and unknowable. The small magnitude unknown portion is finite because Aristotle’s potential infinity is finite. The large magnitude unknown portion is the division reciprocal of the small portion. In Special Relativity, energy and momentum of an electron is found by a Lorentz Transformation in which the trivially small unknown portion is added to rational time-space hyperbolic angle “” (alpha, that relates to speed by “v = c*tanh”). Simultaneously, energy and momentum of a photon is found by adding the large magnitude unknown portion to “”. Both together in one expression means an electron and photon are one in the same particle. Similarly, the Dirac Equation is Lorentz Transformed with the large magnitude unknown portion to result in Maxwell’s Equations. The calculation that finds measurable electric current density components results in electromagnetic force density components. Included in force density are empirically derived electromagnetic energy density and Poynting Vector components. Uniting those electromagnetic phenomena into one derived mathematical model is new and it suggests continuum quantities in our physical world actually do have finite precision. This new construction of numbers can be applied to more modern theories of physics.
The algebra field for rational numbers requires • • •
Any sum or product of two rational numbers be a rational number, as well as negatives and reciprocals (except division by zero) Zero and one be included as identity elements Commutative and associative properties for addition and multiplication as well as the distributive property of multiplication over addition
x SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Irrational numbers “2” and “log23” are included in the rational numbers’ algebra field because none of the above criteria are violated. To prove “2” is irrational, set “2 = p/q” from which “p2 = 2*q2”, from which “p” must be even and “q” must be even, and that observation is inconsistent with the ability of either “p” or “q” to be odd because both can be divided by “2” until one is odd. Inconsistent observations mean no ratio “p/q” of natural numbers “{1, 2, 3, …}” possibly equals “2”. To prove “log23 = p/q” is irrational, derive “2^(log23) = 2^(p/q)” and then “2p = 3q” and observe no natural numbers “{1, 2, 3, …}” for “p” and “q” apply because even number “2p” cannot equal odd number “3q”. Irrational numbers with rational numbers form real numbers, and the algebra field as defined for rational numbers applies to real numbers. Cantor defined real numbers in the late 1800’s by stating real numbers had quantity “2^N0” over any finite or infinite (N0) interval. “N0” (called “aleph null”) was forced to be positive actual infinity through his Continuum Hypothesis: No set has a quantity between “N0” and “2^N0”. Attempt to prove “2” and “log23” are included in Cantor’s set of real numbers. If “2” equals a ratio of two infinity numbers, both are “2^N0” and so, maybe, both are even and cannot be odd, and therefore “2” appears excluded. If “log23” equals a ratio of two infinity numbers, then “2^(2^N0)” equates to “3^(2^N0)”, but there is no algebra to calculate “3^(2^N0)” because the later developed algebra field theory applies only to finite numbers. Perhaps, we are mistakenly forcing “N0” to be finite. Cantor’s general approach of organizing numbers into sets was structured into Axiomatic Set Theory. Axiom of Infinity addressed only Aristotle’s finite potential infinity, and not positive actual infinity. To insert actual infinity into Axiomatic Set Theory, Cantor’s Continuum Hypothesis was added as another axiom, effectively. Also, Axiomatic Set Theory had no axiom that addressed reciprocal of zero, other than excluding division by zero from rational numbers. Propose a reciprocal-of-zero axiom to specify calculations not possible: No operation that includes reciprocal of integer zero can result in a finite number. Per the proposed axiom, “0/0” and “1/0 - 1/0” are not permitted operations. Also “1/0 + 1/0” is not permitted because the positive or negative feature of “0” is unspecified. “1/0 + 7 = 1/0” and “(1/0)*7 = 1/0” are accepted. Also “2^(1/0) = 3^(1/0) = 0 or 1/0”. “1/0” is the absolute maximum magnitude of numbers and is both or either positive and negative.
xi SYNOPSIS – FINITE PRECISION FOR NUMBERS “1/0” is an irrational number and applies to proofs of irrationality. For “2”, “1/0” is both even and odd because “1/0 = 1/0 + 1”. For “log23”, “2^(1/0) = 3^(1/0)”. “p/q = 0/0” is not permitted, therefore, “q*2 = p” and “q*log23 = p” apply instead, as “(1/0)*2 = 1/0” and “(1/0)*log23 = 1/0”, to state “1/0” is the smallest number (other than “0”) multiplied by an irrational number for which the result does not have contribution after the decimal point. “1/0” is larger than positive “N0”, “0 < N0 < 1/0”, because if “N0 < 2^N0” then “N0 2*N0”, “N0 1/0”, and “2^N0 1/0”. Another property of “N0” is no contribution after the decimal point, analogous to a natural number, because “N0” is the quantity of members in a set. Given those two properties, neither “(2^N0)*2” nor “(2*N0)*log23” can equal “2^N0”, and that proves irrational numbers are not included in Cantor’s set of real numbers. The proof required the proposed reciprocal-of-zero axiom so that an irrational number had a quantity “1/0” non-pattern place-value digits after the decimal point. It supposed “1/0 + N0 = 1/0”, “0*N0 = 0”.
Algebra for calculating with “1/0” was set up to remove actual infinity “N0” from numbers. “1/0” is not rational, and because continuum quantities in our physical world are rational numbers to which imprecision is added, “1/0” does not exist as a physical quantity. Assume finite potential infinity “Lmax” is the quantity of placevalue digits before and after a decimal point in a rational number that can be non-zero. Use base two (all digits “0”’s and “1”’s). For example, if adjacent unit lengths on a square are “f” and “g”, then, idealistically, “f = g = 1”, but when the square is constructed in the physical world “f” and “g” each have finite imprecision added and therefore “f g”. Added imprecision is a local-zero “CminC0”. To construct “CminC0”, have quantity “Lmax” zeros after the decimal point. Starting at “Lmax + 1”, place-value digits are all “d” for which “d = b - b”. “b” can be either “0” or “1” with that value unknowable until an observation is made, analogous to Schrödinger’s Cat. Each “b” is independent. For “Lmax = 3”, “CminC0 = 0.000dddd……”. Note that “|CminC0| < 2^-Lmax”.
xii SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Six dots “……” represents quantity “1/0”. For example, “……” represents the quantity of zeros after the decimal point for an integer. To create an integer, truncate the number at the decimal point and discard in one bulk operation, and that contrasts to three dots “…” which represent one at a time in a count, as for finite natural numbers. Another example of six dots is the quantity of non-pattern place-value digits for an irrational number. Also, for example, “1 = 0.9999……” to contrast with “1 0.9999…” because “0.9999…” has a local-zero added to it.
Probability Distribution for “Lmax = 0” for local-zero “CminC0 = 0.dddd……” left and local-infinity “CmaxC = 1/CminC0” right. Higher values of “Lmax” make the spike taller and make the two arms further apart.
As time increases, potential infinity “Lmax” increases in value, and each “d” in sequence becomes “-1”, “0”, “0”, or “1”. If each “d” of a local-zero is randomly replaced with “-1”, “0”, “0”, or “1”, then, because there is quantity “1/0” of “d”’s (per six dots “……”), not all will be zero. Therefore, a division reciprocal of a local-zero exists, called a local-infinity, “CmaxC = 1/CminC0”. Local-infinity “CmaxC” is both positive and negative. Also, magnitude of a local-infinity is larger than “2^Lmax” and so is larger than what is possible for a rational number. A local-real number is a rational number (called a truncated number) plus either “CminC0” or “CmaxC” with the selection unknowable. Local-real numbers replace real numbers.
xiii SYNOPSIS – FINITE PRECISION FOR NUMBERS
Mechanical energy-momentum components and time-space location components for an electron are given below, respectively. mB*c*coshM + q*mB*c*sinhM
;
c*tB*coshM + q*c*tB*sinhM
“mB” is electron rest mass. “tB” is time on a clock mounted on the electron. “c” is speed-of-light. Electron speed “vM” relates to hyperbolic angle “M” by “vM = c*tanhM”. “q” is a 2x2 Pauli Spin Matrix conforming to “q2 = 1” and indicates direction in space. Reference frame “B” is stationary with respect to the particle. Reference frame “M” is moving, for example, the interior of a bus in which the electron moves along the floor toward the front with speed “vM”. Reference frame “S” is stationary, for example, the roadside where observer (you or me) is located. Speed of the bus relative to the roadside is “vS/M = c*tanhS/M”. Hyperbolic angle “M” is a rational truncated number. Use Lorentz Transformation hyperbolic angle “S/M = (1 - q)*”. Imprecision term “” (xi) is either a local-infinity “CmaxC” or else a localzero “CminC0”. The “1 - q” factor keeps components finite and applies because rest mass is a truncated number, as is time measured on the electron’s clock. Lorentz Transformation “S = M + S/M” has First Case for “” maxC “C ” and Second Case for “” “CminC0”. The Second Case is trivial because “CminC0” is zero, so that “S/M” is zero such that the electron when observed in “S” is the same as when observed in “M”. In contrast, the First Case (with “C” positive, “+”) has the electron observed as a photon because energy component “mB*c*exp(M)/2” equals momentum component “mB*c*exp(M)/2”, and time component “c*tB*exp(M)/2” equals space component “c*tB*exp(M)/2”. mB*c*coshS + q*mB*c*sinhS mB*c*exp(M)/2 + q*mB*c*exp(M)/2
First Case “C” positive
c*tB*coshS + q*c*tB*sinhS c*tB*exp(M)/2 + q*c*tB*exp(M)/2
First Case “C” positive
xiv SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Electron dynamics are modeled by the Dirac Equation. The Dirac Equation is developed below with a First Case and a Second Case. Begin with a relationship of momentum components per the Pythagorean Theorem, and split it into two equations to form a matrix equation. (mB*c*(1 + coshS)*PPS)*(mB*c*(-1 + coshS)*-QQS) = (q*mB*c*sinhS*-QQS)*(q*mB*c*sinhS*PPS) (mB*c*(1 + coshS))
(q*mB*c*sinhS)
PPS *
( q*mB*c*sinhS) (mB*c*(-1 + coshS))
0 =
QQS
0
For the First Case, rest mass “mB” terms are zero because the “q” in “S/M = (1 - q)*” creates zero factor “exp(-CmaxC)” (for “C” “+”). And, infinity factor “exp(CmaxC)” cancels that zero factor so that “mB*c*coshS = mB*c*exp(M)/2” and “mB*c*sinhS = mB*c*exp(M)/2”. To account for electric charge, the right-side is given non-zero value “a”. (mB*c*exp(M)/2) (q*mB*c*exp(M)/2)

Mechanical equals total minus electrical. mB*c*cosh(S) = i*ħ*tS - QB*VtS q*mB*c*sinh(S) = qx*(-i*ħ*xS - QB*VxS) + qy*(-i*ħ*yS - QB*VyS) + qz*(-i*ħ*zS - QB*VzS) “tS = /ctS”, “xS = /xS”, “yS = /yS”, and “zS = /zS”. “V” components form the external voltage invariant. “ħ” is Planck’s constant. For the First Case, zero electron rest mass “mB” coincides to zero electron electric charge “QB”, as can be derived from the classic radius of an electron calculation, and the above operators reduce to: mB*c*exp(M)/2 = i*ħ*tS q*mB*c*exp(M)/2 = qx*(-i*ħ*xS) + qy*(-i*ħ*yS) + qz*(-i*ħ*zS)

xvii SYNOPSIS – FINITE PRECISION FOR NUMBERS Dirac Spinor is “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”. Electric charge is “QB”. Voltage invariant components are “V”. Electron rest mass is “mB”. First Case and Second Case, together, as one mathematical model, pertain to a combined photon/electron particle. Per the model, the electromagnetic field is developed from “CmaxC” with “C” “+”, and the electron matter-wave Dirac Spinor is developed from “CminC0”. As time progresses, “M” becomes more precise to change observations of the projected photon. To conceptually justify this new model, refer to the classic radius of the electron, for which matter mass “mB” is equated to electric field energy “E/c2”. The Dirac Spinor is post-processed into a prediction for a measured electric current density invariant. By the same equations, the First Case is post-processed into a prediction for a measured electromagnetic field force density invariant, and it includes the empirically discovered energy density and Poynting Vector. Because separate empirically discovered models of physics are united, the First Case Dirac Equation form of Maxwell’s Equations appears to be fundamental to electromagnetic field theory. The discovery of something more fundamental justifies a claim that the new number system with finite precision is valid in applied mathematics and is ready for use in more modern theories. Also note that one particle is at two places, to violate a preconceived notion for geometric space that that isn’t possible. And note material (fermion electrons) is one in the same as force (boson photons), to unite what appear to be opposites. Take this radical notion further by supposing perceived reality results from numbers, alone from objects, interacting by becoming more precise with respect to each other, to form patterns we see as the Dirac Equation and other mathematical models of physics. Per this theory, the universe is fundamentally numbers and not physical stuff. For further information, please read Special Algebra for Special Relativity.

1 CHAPTER 1 - NUMBERS
Chapter 1 – Numbers 1.1 Process from Descartes Formal mathematics in the written record began about twenty-five hundred years ago in ancient Greece, when Pythagoras presented his proof for the Pythagorean Theorem. Along with that proof came the fresh idea that numbers could be separated from items being counted. About four hundred years ago in La Géométrie, Descartes solved geometric problems using an all-number algebra and plotted solutions on a (Des)Cartesian grid. He had separated algebra from geometry. The three steps that form the “Process from Descartes” are: 1) Mathematically model a physically real phenomenon with geometry 2) Translate the mathematical model into more abstract allnumber algebra to do the analysis 3) Translate the all-number algebraic finished-calculation back into geometry as a final-result The Process from Descartes, what he called “analytic geometry”, explicitly removed analysis from geometry and measurements but did so temporarily. The Process from Descartes is the basis of applied mathematics in this book. This book will show that physical material and force results from numbers becoming more precise relative to each other. Time dependent precision improvement causes number interactions that we model as mathematical dynamic physics. And that means step 3 is only preparation for a measurement and is not a reversion away from numbers to a more fundamental concept of what the physical universe is. Numbers are fundamental, and not material or force. Pythagoras said, “All is number,” and yes, he got it right.
2 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY
1.2 Geometric-Vectors Geometric-Unit-Vectors and Components. Newton’s Second Law is our example: Force “F” equals mass “m” times acceleration “a”. “F” and “a” are geometric-vectors, as indicated by bold font. F = m*a ;
Fx*ix + Fy*iy + Fz*iz = m*ax*ix + m*ay*iy + m*az*iz
Fx = m*ax ; Fy = m*ay ; Fz = m*az
(Component equations)
Figure 1. Tabletop Coordinate System, Location P is 3r = x*ix + y*iy + z*iz
Figure 2. Right-hand coordinate system, and Left-hand system
3 CHAPTER 1 - NUMBERS Three perpendicular geometric-unit-vectors “ix”, “iy”, and “iz” identify directions along which length components “x”, “y” and “z” are measured by counting measurement units (inches or centimeters) on measuring tapes that have their zero points at the origin. Per tradition, a right-hand coordinate system for “x, y, z” is always selected: Right-hand fingers curl through positive “ix” and then positive “iy”, and the thumb points to positive “iz”. Push slippery ice of mass “m” with force “Fx”, and the ice moves with acceleration “ax” per “Fx = m*ax”. The push was parallel with the “x” direction and not necessarily along the front edge of the table. Dot-Product Operations: ix•ix = 1 ; ix•iy = 0 ; ix•iz = 0 iy•ix = 0 ; iy•iy = 1 ; iy•iz = 0 iz•ix = 0 ; iz•iy = 0 ; iz•iz = 1
Cross-Product Operations: ixxix = 0 ; ixxiy = iz ; ixxiz = -iy iyxix = -iz ; iyxiy = 0 ; iyxiz = ix izxix = iy ; izxiy = -ix ; izxiz = 0
Time Geometric-Unit-Vector. The time component in time-space is “c*t”. Time “t” is measured by a clock in seconds relative to a time origin by counting a repeated ticking internal to the clock mechanism. “c 300,000,000” meters/second is the speed-of-light and is a measurement unit conversion factor from time units to length units. “it” is the time geometric-unit-vector. Location “P” in time-space: 4r
= c*t*it + x*ix + y*iy + z*iz
“4” pre-subscript indicates the quantity of terms in the expression. Each term consists of a component factor (“c*t”, “x”, “y”, or “z”) multiplied by a geometric direction factor (“it”, “ix”, “iy”, or “iz”). We could speculate “ixxit” should include an “i” factor (“i2 = -1”) because, perhaps, “it•it = -1”, but we don’t go there because geometricvectors are only used to set up a problem. Engineering-Calculation-Algebra. Lack of division inverse to dot- and cross-products illustrates that physical properties of geometric vectors took priority over mathematical properties. Priority to physical properties is appropriate in engineering because an engineer applies known theory
4 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY in a simple and efficient calculation. In the time of Maxwell (late 1800’s) and Minkowski (early 1900’s) (slightly over a hundred years ago) geometric vectors had just been introduced by Heaviside and was, perhaps, the best algebra available.
1.3 Quaternions An all-number algebra using quaternions fits Special Relativity so well it appears quaternions are inherently the correct algebra. An all-number algebra has only mathematical properties, no physical properties. It might seem counter-intuitive, but algebra separated away from the physical, geometric world better models subtle symmetries. Theory-Development-Algebra is the name for the new intention of the all-number algebra, which is to expand known theories into new theories, as opposed to using known theories in engineering. The difference between engineering-calculation-algebra and theory-development-algebra evolved (in the writing of this book) from the difference in Pythagorean mathematics between logistica (routine calculations) and arithmetica (theory). Quaternions and Label-Numbers. Three quaternions “jx”, “jy”, and “jz” (with the number “1” as the fourth) are in Hamilton’s paper dated 1843. Each quaternion squares to negative one. Quaternions “jx”, “jy”, and “jz”, complex number factor “i”, integer one “1”, and unit magnitude constructions of these special numbers, are given categorical name (in this book) “label-numbers”. Translation to all-number. Place label-numbers in front of components. “4r = c*t*it + x*ix + y*iy + z*iz” becomes i*4r = i*c*t + jx*x + jy*y + jz*z qx = jx/i ; qy = jy/i ; qz = jz/i ;

5 CHAPTER 1 - NUMBERS Matrix Isomorphs of Quaternions. An “isomorph” is a functional equal with respect to an algebra. Products of label-numbers are calculated using matrix isomorphs because matrix isomorphs provide internal mathematical structure for the calculation. A traditional association of matrix isomorphs to quaternion label-numbers is given below. 0 i jx =>

qx*qy = -qy*qx = -i*qz = -jz qy*qz = -qz*qy = -i*qx = -jx qz*qx = -qx*qz = -i*qy = -jy
Quaternion Division Operation. To divide one matrix by another, alter the numerator to create a matrix divided by itself. All possible factorings and regroupings end with the same result. Alternatively, use a reciprocal. qy/jz = (jz*qx)/jz = -(qx*jz)/jz = -qx*(jz/jz) = -qx ; qy/jz = qy*(-jz) = -qx Comparing Quaternions to Geometric-Unit-Vectors. Geometric-unitvectors had no “i” factor in a cross-product result (“ixxiy = iz”). In contrast, quaternions did have an “i” factor (“qx*qy = -i*qz”). An engineer does not want an “i” factor in a calculation that predicts a measurement because every measurement is a real number. In contrast, the “i” is wanted for theory development. Exponential Function with Quaternions. Argument “s” can have a labelnumber included as a factor, for example “s = qx*α” (alpha). In contrast, a geometric-unit-vector cannot be in the argument of an exponential function because there is no algebra by which to calculate. exp(s) = 1 + s + s2/2 + s3/6 + s4/24 + s5/120 + s6/6! + … exp(qx*α) = 1 + qx*α + (qx*α)2/2 + (qx*α)3/6 + (qx*α)4/24 + … = 1 + qx*α + α2/2 + qx*α3/6 + α4/24 + … = (1 + α2/2 + α4/24 + …) + qx*(α + α3/6 + …) = cosh(α) + qx*sinh(α) Complex-conjugate operator “*i” swaps “i” for “-i” and reverses factors. i*i = -i
1*i = 1
7 CHAPTER 1 - NUMBERS Quaternion hypercomplex-conjugate operator “*j” swaps “jx”, “jy”, “jz” for “-jx”, “-jy”, “-jz”, respectively, and reverses factors. i*j = i
; 1*j = 1
jx*j = -jx ; jy*j = -jy ; jz*j = -jz ;
qx*j = -qx ; qy*j = -qy ; qz*j = -qz
-qx = (qx)*j = (jy*qz)*j = (qz)*j*(jy)*j = (-qz)*(-jy) = qz*jy = -qx Both an all-number expression and its conjugate relate to the same geometric-vector expression. The “*j” symbol is removed after “4r*j” is used as a factor in a multiplication operation, and not before. 4r
*j
= (1*c*t + qx*x + qy*y + qz*z)*j = c*t*1*j + x*qx*j + y*qy*j + z*qz*j
Division reciprocal can substitute for negative. i*i = -i = 1/i ;
jx*j = -jx = 1/jx ; jy*j = -jy = 1/jy ; jz*j = -jz = 1/jz
An Algebra that Includes Quaternions. Product equations above must be organized into a mathematical group. The group’s criteria are used in a proof so that the proof is not ambiguous or illogical. Criteria for a group: • • • • •
Closure Identity element Commutative property Associative property Inverse operation
Two groups combine to form an algebra field with: •
Distributive property
8 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Number Sets. Every natural number, integer, and rational number is finite. Natural numbers “N” used for counting start with one and have one added repeatedly. Include zero and negatives to form integers “Z”. N = {1, 2, 3, …}
;
Z = {…, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, …}
Rational numbers “Q” are each a ratio of two integers: “q Q” if “q = m/n” with “m, n Z” and “n ≠ 0”. A rational number “q” has multiple selections of “m” and “n”, for example “1.5 = 3/2 = -6/-4”. Integers are a subset of rational numbers: “Z Q” because the denominator “n” may equal “1”. An integer lacks a decimal point. Descartes assigned the name “real” to real numbers to distinguish them from complex or imaginary numbers. Today, real numbers “R” are rational numbers united with numbers proven to be irrational. “Q R” Algebra Field for Real Numbers. Integers “Z”, rational numbers “Q”, and real numbers “R” each form a group with respect to addition. The example group “{R, +}” uses real numbers “R”. Criteria are: •
.1. Addition Closure Property. Each element “a” formed by addition is an element of “R”: “a = b + c”. “a, b, c R”
•
.2. Addition Identity Property. An addition identity element “e” is an element of the set “R”, for which “a = a + e”. “a, e R” (“e” is integer zero “0”)
•
.3. Addition Commutative Property. The order of elements in an addition operation has no effect on the result of the operation, so that “a + b = b + a”. “a, b R”
•
.4. Addition Associative Property. The order of addition operations has no effect on the result of the operations, so that “(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)”. “a, b, c R”
•
.5. Addition Inverse Property. Each element “a” formed by the addition inverse operation, “a = -b” (such that “a + b = e”), is an element of “R”. “a, b, e R”
9 CHAPTER 1 - NUMBERS Rational numbers “Q” and real numbers “R” each form a group with respect to multiplication. “{R, *}” Criteria: •
.6. Multiplication Closure Property. Each element “a” formed by multiplication “a = b*c” is an element of “R”. “a, b, c R”
•
.7. Multiplication Identity Property. A multiplication identity element “f” is an element of the set “R”, for which “a = a*f”. “a, f R” (“f” is integer one “1”)
•
.8. Multiplication Commutative Property. The order of elements in a multiplication operation has no effect on the result of the operation, so that “a*b = b*a”. “a, b R”
•
.9. Multiplication Associative Property. The order of multiplication operations has no effect on the result of the operations, so that “(a*b)*c = a*(b*c)”. “a, b, c R”
•
.10. Multiplication Inverse Property. Each element “a” formed by the multiplication inverse operation, “a = 1/b” (such that “a*b = f”), is an element of “R”. “a, b, f R” with the exception “b 0”
The two groups above are brought together to form an algebra field “{R, +, *}” (or “{Q, +, *}”) by use of the distributive property. •
.11. Distributive Property of Multiplication over Addition. “a*(b + c) = a*b + a*c” and “(a + b)*c = a*c + b*c”. “a, b, c R” Use algebra field criteria to prove properties.
•
.12. Property of One Addition Identity Element “e”: If “e1 + a = a” and if also there is “e2 + a = a” then from “a = a” we have “e1 + a = e2 + a”, and after subtracting “a” we have “e = e1 = e2”.
•
.13. Property of One Multiplication Identity Element “f”: If “f1*a = a” and if “f2*a = a”, then from “a = a” we have “f1*a = f2*a”, and, after dividing out “a” (for “a 0”), we have “f = f1 = f2”.
10 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY •
.14. Property of “0 = -0”: The addition identity element “0” is its own addition inverse, so that “0 = -0”.
•
.15. Property of “1 = 1/1” and “-1 = 1/(-1)”: The multiplication identity element “1” is its own multiplication inverse, “1 = 1/1”. And, the addition inverse of the multiplication identity element is its own multiplication inverse, “-1 = 1/(-1)”.
•
.16. Property of “b*0 = 0”: Any number “b” multiplied by the additive identity element zero “0” equals the additive identity element zero “0” as the product. If “a = a + 0”, then “0 = a - a” and “b*0 = b*a - b*a = 0”.
•
.17. Inverse Anti-Commutative Properties: The addition inverse anti-commutative property is “-(a - b) = b - a”. The multiplication inverse anti-commutative property is “1/(a/b) = b/a”.
Exponent operation properties for rational numbers and integers are listed below. The exponent operation “^” is repeated multiplication (for example, “4^5 = 4*4*4*4*4”). Similarly, the multiplication operation “*” is repeated addition “+” (for example, “4*5 = 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4”). •
.18. Exponent Closure Property: Each element “a” formed by the exponent operation “a = b^c” is an element of “Q”. “a, b Q”, “c Z”, and “b ≠ 0” if “c < 0”.
•
.19. Exponent Identity Property: An exponent identity element “g” is an element of set “Z” for which “a = a^g”. “a Q”, “g Z” (“g” is integer one “1”)
•
.20. No Exponent Inverse Property: Element “c” formed by the root inverse exponent operation, “c = a^(1/b)”, is not an element of “Q” if “b ≠ 1” or “b ≠ -1”. “a Q”, “b Z”
•
.21. Base Inverse Property: Element “b” formed by the logarithm inverse exponent operation, “logac = b”, is an element of “Z” only if “c = a^b”. “a, c Q”
11 CHAPTER 1 - NUMBERS •
.22. No Exponent Associative Property: The order of exponent operations cannot be altered, so that “(a^b)^c” does not necessarily equal “a^(b^c)”. “a Q”, “b, c Z”
•
.23. No Exponent Commutative Property: The order of elements in an exponent operation has an effect on the result of the operation so that “a^b ≠ b^a”. “a, b Z”, “a ≠ b”
•
.24. Distributive Property for Exponent Operation. “a^(b + c) = (a^b)*(a^c)”. “a Q”, “b, c Z”
Complex Numbers. “{1, i}” in a group with multiplication, “{{1, i}, *}”: •
Closure: No holes in the multiplication table
•
Identity: Identity element is integer one.
•
Commutative Property: Applies without exception
•
Associative Property: Applies without exception
•
Inverse: The ratio of any two numbers is in the set of numbers 1/1 = 1 ; i/1 = i ; 1/i = 1*(-i) = -i ; i/i = 1
“{1, i}” combines with real numbers “R” to form “complex numbers”, “C”, that conform to the criteria of an algebra with the same properties as for real numbers “R”, “{C, +, *}”. Conjugate operation “*i” does not affect “{C, +, *}”. Through an algebraic manipulation “i” is placed in the numerator. 1/(5 + i*7) = (5 - i*7)/((5 - i*7)*(5 + i*7)) = (5 - i*7)/(25 + 49) = 5/74 - i*7/74 “a + i*b” with “a, b R” is called the “summation-form”. 2x2 matrix isomorphs apply.

A four-term summationform number “4rB” multiplied by a six-term summation-form number “6A” may be split between a triple-vector-product “■” and a remnant-product “♦”. The triple-vector-product “■” has a mathematically imaginary result. The remnant-product “♦” has a mathematically real result (as given by the “r” (real) and “i” (imaginary) subscripts in the summation-form in quaternion-complex-hypercomplex algebra). 4rB*6A

There is a pattern to the count of terms in the products: One (for a real number), four (for time-space location), six (for area), four (for volume), and one (for world volume). This pattern of numbers – 1,4,6,4,1 – is a row of Pascal’s Triangle.
1.4 Translation Back to Geometry The translation for step three has the following equivalences. “1” and “i” become “it” “qx” and “jx” become “ix”
; ;
“qy” and “jy” become “iy” “qz” and “jz” become “iz”
Axial Vectors. “Polar vectors” have “1”, “qx”, “qy”, and/or “qz” with real components. Examples are time-space location, contravariant location, energy-momentum, frequency-wavenumber, and electric field. “Axial vectors” have “jx”, “jy”, and/or “jz” such that their components are imaginary. Examples are area (only the imaginary
20 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY portion), torque, and magnetic field. There are other imaginary allnumber expressions, but we do not consider these to be axial vectors: volume four-term summation-form, and world volume. Axial geometric-vectors are called “pseudo-vectors” because direction of an axial geometric-vector changes if the coordinate system is left-hand rather than right-hand. In all-number algebra, “qx”, “qy”, and “qz” may be thought of as direction indicated by the thumb and “jx”, “jy”, and “jz” may be thought of as direction of the curl of fingers in a plane, with no thumb applied. Step three translation forces the thumb to be applied.

The above 2x2 matrix isomorphs are singular matrices because the determinant is zero. For terms that commute, the determinant is calculated by multiplying upper left by lower right and subtracting from it upper right by lower left: |x| = (1+i)*(1-i) - (1-i)*(1+i) = 0 A singular-label-number multiplied by its quaternion hypercomplex-conjugate equals zero:
1*j*1 = (1 - q1)*(1 + q1) = 0
;
β1*j*β1 = (-q2 - i*q3)*(q2 + i*q3) = 0
1*j*1 = (1*j + β1*j)*(1 + β1) = 1*j*1 + 1*j*β1 + β1*j*1 + β1*j*β1 = 0 + (1 - q1)*((q2)*(1 + q1)) + ((1 - q1)*(-q2))*(1 + q1) + 0 = 0

12 = (1 + q1)*(1 + q1) ; = 1 + 2*q1 + q1*q1 = 2*1
β12 = (q2 + i*q3)*(q2 + i*q3) = q2*q2 + q2*i*q3 + i*q3*q2 + i*q3*i*q3 =0
12 = (1 + β1)*(1 + β1) = 12 + 1*β1 + β1*1 + β12 = 2*1 + q2*1*j*1 + q2*1*1 + 0 = 2*1 + q2*0 + 2*β1 + 0 = 2*1 A singular-label-number in the denominator is a division by zero and not allowed, and that gives us “singularity theorems”. Examples: ((1 + qx)/2)*((3 - qx)/2) = (1 + qx)/2 ((1 qx)/2)*exp(qx*α) = ((1 qx)/2)*exp(α) An exponential function with a singular label number argument has a result of unit magnitude, for example, “exp((i + jx)*/2) = -qx”. Singular-label-numbers should be thought of as part of a group rather than as individual anomalies.

Check with the dot product. And, then, as another check, repeat the process but use the derived contravariant geometric-vectors “4kA”, “4kB”, “4kC” and “4kD” substituting for the original (covariant) geometric-vectors, to find “4rA”, “4rB”, “4rC” and “4rD”.

6) Prove the two time-space location geometric-vectors “4rC” and “4rD” are each perpendicular to the cross-product of “4rC” and “4rD”. Use the triple-vector-product set equal to zero. 7) A row in Pascal’s Triangle is 1 3 3 1. Using three-dimensional geometric-unit-vectors, relate the first “1” to a real number, the first “3” to the polar vector for location, the second “3” to the axial vector for area formed by the cross-product, and the second “1” to the volume formed by the dot-product. Next, for the row 1 2 1, model space using complex numbers: For two locations on the complex-plane modeled by “2rA” and “2rB”, take the complexconjugate of one of them, and then multiply them using the dot product, and relate the result to the 1 2 1 model of terms in vector expressions for the complex-plane. 8) .A.

Division by “1 qx” is prohibited because a singular-labelnumber cannot be in the denominator, to avoid a division by zero that would lead to the non-sense result of equating “exp(qx*α)” to “exp(α)”.

With negatives, prove this set forms a division algebra by reviewing each of the five criteria. 3) Write analogous equations to those below, using Pauli Spin Matrices (“PSMx = jx/i”, “PSMy = jy*i” and “PSMz = jz/i”). qx = jx/i ; qy = jy/i ; qz = jz/i qx*jy = -jy*qx = -qy*jx = jx*qy = qz qy*jz = -jz*qy = -qz*jy = jy*qz = qx qz*jx = -jx*qz = -qx*jz = jz*qx = qy

4) 2x2 matrix isomorphs for quaternions did not include intermediate combinations of the three 2x2 matrix isomorphs. Assign “a = exp(i*)” and “b = exp(i*)” in the below 2x2 matrix. Select “” (theta), “” (phi) and “” (delta) to create “1”, “jx”, “jy”, and “jz”. Try to select other values for “”, “” and “” retaining “jx = jy*jz = -jz*jy”, “jy = jz*jx = -jx*jz”, and “jz = jx*jy = -jy*jx”. Try a different format for the 2x2 matrix, too. a*sin()

Try to define an algebra for singular-label-numbers. 6) For a better understanding, push math to extremes, and further. Quaternions are pushed to an extreme in octonions, sedonions, and beyond.

33 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES
Chapter 2 – Particles Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity provides the method for transforming mathematical descriptions of physical entities, called invariants, from one constant speed observer vantage to a different constant speed observer vantage. Two examples of invariants are timespace location and energy-momentum. A person seated in a moving bus has a speed vantage from which they measure time, space-location, energy, and momentum component values for a baseball thrown forward from the back of the bus. Because the bus is moving, a person standing on the roadside has a different vantage, and so measures different component values for the same baseball. The change in component values is quantified through the mathematics of Special Relativity by use of the Lorentz Transformation. A Lorentz Transformation is addition of time-space hyperbolic angles.
2.1 Hypercomplex-Plane In this chapter, Special Relativity is presented with the “x” component the only space component. Time-space location “2r = 1*c*t + qx*x” is visualized by plotting components “c*t” and “x” on a Cartesian grid called a time-space “hypercomplex-plane”. The hypercomplex-plane is an analogy to the “complex-plane” used to illustrate a complex number.
Figure 3. Complex-Plane and Radial Coordinate System.
A complex-plane is drawn on a sheet of paper using two space dimensions “x” and “y”. “” is theta.
34 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY 2z
= x + i*y = r*cos + i*r*sin = r*exp(i*)
1 = (cos2 + sin2) ; r = (x2 + y2) Rotate the complex-plane coordinate system by rotating the sheet of paper. For the hypercomplex-plane, substitute “jx*x” for “i*y” and “i*c*t” for “x” and find “i*2r = i*c*t + jx*x”. The right-side of “i*2r = i*c*t + jx*x” has two label-numbers that square to negative one, “i2 = -1” and “jx2 = -1”. That makes it different from the right side of “2z = x + i*y”. Because of that difference, the hypercomplex-plane cannot be rotated by rotating the sheet of paper. Divide “i*2r = i*c*t + jx*x” by “i” to get “2r = c*t + qx*x”, in which 2 “qx = +1”. “rhyperbolic” is the hyperbolic-radius. “α” (alpha) is the timespace hyperbolic-angle. 2r
= 1*c*t + qx*x = 1*rhyperbolic*coshα + qx*rhyperbolic*sinhα = rhyperbolic*exp(qx*α)
1 = (cosh2α - sinh2α) coshα = c*t/rhyperbolic
; rhyperbolic = ((c*t)2 - x2) ;
sinhα = x/rhyperbolic
; tanhα = x/(c*t)
exp(qx*α) = coshα + qx*sinhα To illustrate a time-space hypercomplex-plane on a space-space sheet of paper, replace “qx” with “i” and call it “qx-illustrated”. 2rillustrated
= 1*c*t + i*x = 1*rillustrated*cosαillustrated + i*rillustrated*sinαillustrated = rillustrated*exp(i*αillustrated)
1 = (cos2αillustrated + sin2αillustrated)
; rillustrated = ((c*t)2 + x2)
cosαillustrated = c*t/rillustrated ; sinαillustrated = x/rillustrated ; tanαillustrated = x/(c*t) exp(i*αillustrated) = cosαillustrated + i*sinαillustrated
35 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES The difference between circular trigonometric functions used in the “2rillustrated” illustration and hyperbolic trigonometric functions used in the “2r” time-space location expression causes distortion. Vertical and horizontal displacements are illustrated correctly. Lines at an angle are distorted by appearing longer than in time-space reality (because “rillustrated = ((c*t)2 + x2) > rhyperbolic = ((c*t)2 - x2)”). Diagonal lines (for which “(c*t)2 = x2”) are completely distorted because any point illustrated on a diagonal has a zero hyperbolic-radius in time-space reality.
Figure 4. The Illustrated Hypercomplex-Plane with the Hyperbolic Radial Coordinate System.
A light source at the origin emits one photon that travels along the positive “x” axis at the speed-of-light. The plot of points “c*t” and “x” is called the world-line which, for the photon, is the diagonal from the origin to the upper-right. The world-line of the light source is straight up the “c*t” axis, because “x = 0”, and the hyperbolic-radius equals “c*t”. In contrast to the light source, the hyperbolic radius for the photon remains zero because “c*t = x”. Because “x = rhyperbolic*sinhα”, “α” is large (to the ultimate “1/0” if we allow division by zero).
36 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY
2.2 Inertial Reference Frames Selected origins for “c*t” and “x” are valid for both a moving and a stationary inertial (constant speed) reference frame. The visualization is a big rectangular prism bus moving down a road toward the right. Inertial reference frame “M” is the interior of the moving bus. A person seated on the moving bus takes measurements of component values. These are written with subscript “M”. Inertial reference frame “S” is the stationary roadside. A person standing on the roadside also takes measurements. Those component values are written with subscript “S”. “(c*tM, xM) = (c*tS, xS) = (0, 0)”: When “c*tM = c*tS = 0”, the back of the bus (“xM = 0”) and the speed limit sign (“xS = 0”) identify the same point in space. “xM” is measured using measurement tape along the floor of the bus. “xS” is measured using measurement tape along the roadside. “tM” is measured using a clock mounted on the bus wall. “tS” is measured using a clock mounted on the roadside. Define a physical system (of components and label-numbers) inside bus “M”, and then apply a “Lorentz Transformation” using the speed of the bus “S/M” to describe the same physical system observed from roadside “S”. A Lorentz Transformation is a hyperbolic-angle rotation. Rest Frame “B” of the object in motion is a third inertial reference frame. The baseball’s own rest frame “B” has the ball stopped. Therefore, in “B”, there is advancement of time “tB”, but no change in space location (“xB = 0”). And there is rest mass energy per “EB = mB*c2”, but no momentum, “pxB = 0”. Speed “vM” could be written “vM/B” because “vB = 0”. The “Relative” in “Special Relativity”. “Relativity” is the ancient concept that all inertial frames have the same preference. In the movie Agora watch a re-enactment of Hypatia of Alexandria (who lived around 390 AD / 390 CE) measure locations on a ship’s deck of weights dropped from the mast to verify there is no
37 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES preferred reference frame. Galileo (around 1600 AD / 1600 CE) described in one of his books the experiment of dropping weights from a ship’s mast. And Galileo created a visualization for the lack of a preferred reference frame by describing what a person would observe when isolated inside a moving ship. Einstein (in year 1905) added to relativity the requirement that the speed-of-light be the same regardless of reference frame and that meant time and space measurements were specific to a reference frame. The change in space is easy to imagine. Place a measuring tape along the floor inside the bus and another measuring tape on the ground along the roadside and see the two coincide only when time equals zero (at a non-relativistic speed). The change in time is not so easy to imagine, and that’s the trick. Geometric Problem Definition. On bus “M” we have measured or have calculated component values for time-space location “2r” and energymomentum “2p” for a moving baseball. 2r
;
= c*tM*itM + xM*ixM
2p
= (EM/c)*itM + pxM*ixM
Baseball “B” of rest mass “mB” was thrown at speed “vM” in the positive “+xM” direction inside the bus at “tM = 0”. “xM” can be calculated from “xM = vM*tM”. Total energy “EM” equals rest mass energy “EB = mB*c2” added to kinetic energy. Mechanical momentum “pxM” equals relativistic mass “EM/c2” times speed “vM”, “pxM = vM*(EM/c2)”. Geometric-unit-vectors “itM” and “ixM” are the same in energymomentum “2p” as they are in time-space “2r”. The bus moves at speed “vS/M”. Our objective is to use “M” components and bus speed “vS/M” to calculate the same four components relative to roadside “S”. 2r

2.3 The Unspecified-Speed-Parameter Begin the second step by replacing: itM with exp(-qx*)
;
ixM with qx*exp(-qx*)
If “itM” had been replaced with “1” and “ixM” with “qx”, then the replacement would have implied preference for moving coordinate system “M”. To avoid that preference, “exp(-qx*)” uses “unspecifiedspeed-parameter”, “” (sigma, or, in English, esse). If “” is included in a label-number, then we call that label-number a “compound-label-number”. A compound-label-number contrasts with a “simple-label-number”, such as “1” or “qx”. “” is unknown and unknowable. It is different from independent variable “x” because “x” is intended to be substituted with a selected single valued real number. In other words, although “x” is not known, “x” is knowable. In contrast, “” is unknowable. We are less likely to mistakenly assume a preferred reference frame if continuously reminded about the unspecified-speed-parameter
39 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES “” by using compound-label-numbers. (Explicit use of “” ensures we do not violate “gauge invariance”.) 1M = exp(-qx*) = cosh - qx*sinh qxM = qx*1M = qx*exp(-qx*) = -sinh + qx*cosh = exp(-qx*)*qx = 1M*qx
2.4 Compound-Label-Numbers and Components Retain component values in the translation from a geometric representation to the all-number (more abstract) representation. 2r

An advantage of all-number expressions is use of “exp”. c*tB*exp(qx*αM) = c*tB*coshαM + qx*c*tB*sinhαM = c*tM + qx*xM c*tM = c*tB*coshαM
;
xM = c*tB*sinhαM
EM/c = mB*c*coshαM

“αM” (alpha) relates to speed “vM” of the baseball on the bus. (vM/c) = tanhαM
αM = atanh(vM/c)

For the above equations, a baseball was thrown forward from the back of the bus at time “tM = 0”, and the baseball has constant speed “vM” in the positive “xM” direction. Speed-parameter “αM” is the hyperbolicangle for motion of the baseball inside the bus. “c*tB” and “mB*c” are each hyperbolic-radius in their respective “c*tM”/”xM” or “EM/c”/”pxM” hypercomplex-planes and are calculated from the Pythagorean Theorem. 12 = cosh2αM - sinh2αM ; (c*tB)2 = (c*tM)2 - xM2 ; (mB*c)2 = (EM/c)2 - pxM2

Bus “M” moves at speed “vS/M/c = 0”. Observer “S” observes the baseball inside the bus per “c*tS = xM”, “xS = c*tM” and “vS = vM” by looking through the bus window and seeing ticks of a clock are nodes along a line and seeing nodes along a line are ticks of a clock. There are no examples in which time and space are swapped, as if a theory of physics prevents it from happening. “αS/M = (i - jx)*/2” includes a singular-label-number factor “i - jx” so that “αS/M = (i - jx)*/2” is a variation of the number zero. As such, “αS/M = (i - jx)*/2” cannot be in a denominator, which it is not. Also, “exp(qx*((i - jx)*/2)) = qx” must be unit magnitude, which it is, because “qx” is unit magnitude. A hypercomplex hyperbolic-angle “αS/M” is called (in this book) an “exotic Lorentz Transformation”.

Moving negative electric charges “2J-” with “xB- < 0” (valence electrons), for which “vM-/c = tanh(αM-) > 0” and, for a physically real wire, “vM-/c αM-”.
The sum “2J = 2J+ + 2J-” time component in “M” must be zero. 2J
= 2J+ + 2J= 1M*xB+*exp(qx*αM+) + 1M*xB-*exp(qx*αM-) = 1M*xB+ + 1M*xB-*exp(qx*αM-) = 1M*xB+ + 1M*xB-*(coshαM- + qx*sinhαM-) = 1M*(xB+ + xB-*coshαM-) + qxM*xB-*sinhαM= qxM*xB-*sinhαM= qxM*(-xB+/coshαM-)*sinhαM= qxM*-xB+*tanhαM= qxM*xB+*(-vM-/c)
54 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY The requirement of a zero time component was satisfied by setting “xB+ + xB-*coshαM- = 0”, from which “xB- = -xB+/coshαM-”. Regardless of “vM-/c” being small, current “2J = qxM*xB+*(-vM-/c)” in a wire produces a very noticeable magnetic field around the wire. A wire with electric current can, as a piece of metal, move in the positive “x” direction with speed “vS”. With respect to “S”, the hyperbolicradius of the current “qx*(xB+*(-vM-/c))” is space-like. Space-like current density in “S” is not commonly useful. 2J
= 1S*qx*(xB+*(-vM-/c))*exp(qx*αS/M) = qxS*(xB+*(-vM-/c))*exp(qx*αS/M)

Space-Like Invariant Complement for Energy-Momentum. “nB” relates to rest mass “mB” as length “sB” relates to time “c*tB”. 2pspace-like
= 1M*qx*nB*c*exp(qx*αM) = qxM*nB*c*exp(qx*αM) = 1M*nB*c*sinh(αM) + qxM*nB*c*cosh(αM) = 1M*(EM/c) + qxM*pxM
“αS/M = (i - jx)*/2” has been used to create “2pspace-like” from “2p”, but although we can create “2pspace-like”, we cannot find a physical example. Can there be momentum without energy?
55 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES Angular Momentum Density Invariant. In two-dimensional time-space, the axis of rotation for angular momentum is limited to being in the “x” direction. The visualization is a spinning ring. Use the right-hand-rule: Fingers curl with the direction of rotation and the right-hand thumb points in the direction of angular momentum. If we look to a higher value of “x”, then a clockwise rotation (top to the right) has positive angular momentum. “HxB” is rest-frame angular momentum of a spinning ring. It is similar to rest-frame electric charge “QB” because its value does not change with respect to speed of an observer. Like “QB”, “HxB” is an invariant in itself: Factor “1 = cosh(αM)/cosh(αM)” has the numerator from relativistic mass and the denominator from time dilation. If “HxB = dHxB/dxB” is density of angular momentum along a particle’s length, then the (space-like) invariant is 2H
= 1M*qx*HxB*exp(qx*αM) = 1M*HxB*sinh(αM) + qxM*HxB*cosh(αM) = 1M*HtM + qxM*HxM
Space component “HxM = HxB*cosh(αM)” is positive or negative depending on spin direction of “HxB”. Time component “HtM = HxB*sinh(αM)” is positive or negative depending on “sinh(αM)” and quantifies angular momentum that passes a point “xM”. Angular momentum density is similar to electric current density, with the difference being space-like vs time-like, and that difference shows in their respective conservation laws: “((2)*jsn)x(2H) = 0” as opposed to “((2)*jsn)•(2J) = 0”. (“sn” will be explained later.)
2.9 Motion Faster than Light Inside bus “M” a baseball moves toward the front at speed “vM < c”, as observed by a person seated on the bus. A person standing on the roadside “S” observes the baseball moving at speed “vS > c”. Bus speed hyperbolic-angle “αS/M = i*/2” is not real, “αS/M R”. vS/M/c = tanhS/M = tanh(i*/2) = i*tan(/2) = i*(1/0) = 1/0
56 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Bus speed “vS/M/c = 1/0” is instantaneous movement along “x” so that the bus is at all locations “x” simultaneously, but only for an instant. General form for “αS/M = i*/2” and “αM R”: 2r
= 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM) = 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)*(exp(qx*αS/M)/exp(qx*αS/M)) = 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)*(exp(qx*i*/2)/exp(qx*i*/2)) = 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)*(exp(jx*/2)/(exp(jx*/2)) = 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)*(jx/jx) = (1M/jx)*((jx*c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)) = (-i*1M/qx)*((i*qx*c*tB)*exp(qx*αM))
1S = -i*1M/qx = -i*qxM
;
qxS = qx*i*qxM = -i*1M
Hyperbolic radius “i*qx*c*tB” is space-like and imaginary for “tB” real. c*tS + qx*xS = (i*qx*c*tB)*exp(qx*αM) c*tS = i*qx*c*tB*qx*sinh(αM) = i*xM
; c*tS = c*tM*coshαS/M + xM*sinhαS/M = c*tM*cosh(i*/2) + xM*sinh(i*/2) = c*tM*cos(/2) + i*xM*sin(/2) = i*xM
qx*xS = i*qx*c*tB*cosh(αM) = i*qx*c*tM
;
xS = c*tM*sinhαS/M + xM*coshαS/M = c*tM*sinh(i*/2) + xM*cosh(i*/2) = i*c*tM*sin(/2) + xM*cos(/2) = i*c*tM
“2r” is confirmed to be invariant. 2r
= 1S*c*tS + qxS*xS = (-i*qxM)*(i*xM) + (-i*1M)*(i*c*tM) = qxM*xM + 1M*c*tM = 1M*c*tM + qxM*xM = 2r
“c*tB” is real: c*tB = ((c*tS)2 - xS2) = ((i*xM)2 - (i*c*tM)2) = ((c*tM)2 - xM2) = c*tB
57 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES Time and space (in “M”) is swapped for space and time (in “S”), respectively, and that means “M” is drawn on the “S” hypercomplexplane up from the “xS” axis toward the “c*tS” axis, to illustrate “αS = αM + i*/2” drawn down from the “c*tS” axis. αS = αM + αS/M = αM + i*/2 vS/c = tanhαS = tanh(αM + i*/2) = sinh(αM + i*/2)/cosh(αM + i*/2) = (sinh(αM)*cosh(i*/2) + cosh(αM)*sinh(i*/2))/ (cosh(αM)*cosh(i*/2) + sinh(αM)*sinh(i*/2)) = (sinh(αM)*cos(/2) + cosh(αM)*i*sin(/2))/ (cosh(αM)*cos(/2) + sinh(αM)*i*sin(/2)) = (i*coshαM)/(i*sinhαM) = cothαM For “αM R” “vS/c = cothαM > 1” so that “vS > c”. “c*tS = i*xM” and “xS = i*c*tM” mean “c*tS” and “xS” are imaginary for “c*tM” and “xM” real. The “S” hypercomplex-plane requires “c*tS” and “xS” be real. To force “c*tS” and “xS” to be real make the hyperbolicradius (in “B”) imaginary. tB = -i*B mB = -i*B
(tau) ; B R
;
(nu) ; B R ;
i*qx*c*tB = i*qx*c*(-i*B) = qx*c*B i*qx*mB*c = i*qx*(-i*B)*c = qx*B*c
The imaginary hyperbolic-radius causes “c*tM” and “xM” to be imaginary and not plotted on the “M” hypercomplex plane. Colliding Rods Visualization. Two parallel rods move perpendicular to their length to collide and bounce. All points along the contacting surface coincide everywhere in “xB” at one instant in time “tB”. Because we are observing a rod collision along “xB” at one instant “tB” and not one location “xB” for all time “tB”, we have “αB = i*/2” and not “αB = 0”.
58 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY The two rods are on the floor of a bus, “αM = 0”. Because “vS/M, αS/M > 0”, the front of the bus is at an earlier time “tM” compared to the back, for each time “tS”, and that means the rod collision observed from “S” starts in the rear of bus and moves forward at speed “vS = c2/vS/M > c”. Spooky Action at a Distance. Einstein gave the name “spooky action at a distance” to the polarization of a pair of entangled photons determined simultaneously in two observations a macroscopic distance away. The information of the direction of polarization had to travel from one particle to its entangled partner particle instantaneously over the macroscopic distance. Perhaps this is another example of “α = i*/2”. Violation of Cause-and-Effect. A hyper-light-speed signal can arrive before it was emitted. The signal can be two rods colliding. Set “M > 0” (mu) and “αM = M + i*/2” so that “vM = c*coth(M)”. (If “M < 0” then the adder is “- i*/2”.) Bus “M” moves backward relative to roadside “S” with negative hyperbolic-angle speed-parameter “αS/M < 0”. M R ; M > 0 ; αM = M + i*/2 ; αS = αM + αS/M = i*/2 + (M + αS/M ) 2r
αS/M R ; αS/M < 0
= 1S*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αS) = 1S*(-i*c*B)*exp(qx*αS) = 1S*(-i*c*B)*exp(qx*(αM + αS/M)) = 1S*(-i*c*B)*exp(qx*(i*/2 + M1 + αS/M)) = 1S*(-i*c*B)*exp(qx*i*/2)*exp(qx*(M + αS/M)) = 1S*(-i*c*B)*jx*exp(qx*(M + αS/M)) = qxS*(i*-i*c*B)*exp(qx*(M + αS/M)) = qxS*(c*B)*exp(qx*(M + αS/M))
c*tS = c*B*sinh(M + αS/M)
xS = c*B*cosh(M + αS/M)
Space-like equations for “c*tS” and “xS” depend on angle “M + αS/M”, which is positive for “αS/M = 0” and negative for “αS/M < -M”.
59 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES •
For “αS/M = 0”, the colliding rods move forward inside the bus at speed “vM-rods = c*tanh(M) < c” so that their contact point moves at speed “vS = c*coth(M) > c” and “c*tS > 0” and “xS > 0”.
•
In contrast, for “αS/M < -M” the rods move backward at speed “-c < vS-rods = c*tanh(M + αS/M) < 0” so that their contact point moves backward at speed “vS = c*coth(M + αS/M) < -c”. “c*tS < 0” with “xS > 0” means increasing values of “xS” occur for decreasing values of “c*tS” and that properly corresponds to negative direction movement because “S” time is only seen moving positively.
The contact point was seen moving forward on the bus but moving backward from the roadside so that past locations of the contact point on the bus are future locations of the contact point from the roadside. Time goes backward.
Figure 19. Illustration of a violation of cause-and-effect for motion faster than the speed-of-light. The observer sees time as moving up vertically. The arrow on the far-right figure points right, but the “S” observer sees the activity as moving left, toward the source of the emission.
Visualization of the Violation of Cause-and-Effect. A solar system has two small planets in counter-orbits. Reference frame “M” is Planet M. “S” is Planet S. At “c*tM = 0” and “c*tS = 0” the two planets are a few days passed each other with Planet M on the left and moving left. Therefore, “vS/M/c = tanhαS/M” with “αS/M < 0” and “vS/M < 0” (and “vM/S > 0”).
60 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Planet M sends a hyper-light-speed signal to Planet S at speed “vM/c = cothM” with “M > 0” and “vM > 0” / “vM > c”. Planet S received it at “c*tM = 7” and “xM = tM*vM = c*tM*coth(M)” (“xM > 0”). 2r
= 1M*(-i*c*B)*exp(qx*αM) = 1M*(-i*c*B)*exp(qx*(M + i*/2)) = 1M*(-i*c*B)*(jx)*exp(qx*M) = 1M*(c*B)*(qx)*exp(qx*M)
c*tM = c*B*sinh(M)
;
xM = c*B*cosh(M) = (c*tM/sinh(M))*cosh(M) = c*tM*coth(M) = tM*vM
Note that “xM > 0” and “xM > c*tM” because “M R”. Relative to Planet S, the hyper-light-speed signal time-space location components “c*tS” and “xS” are found using the below component equations, as given previously. c*tS = c*B*sinh(M + αS/M)
;
xS = c*B*cosh(M + αS/M)
If “M = 0”, such that the signal arrived instantly (as would happen for colliding rods), then “c*tS < 0”, and the signal was received on Planet S prior to being emitted, per “c*tS = c*B*sinh(M + αS/M)”.
Figure 20. Instant signal sent from Planet M to Planet S and then another instant signal is sent back to Planet M. The second signal arrives prior to the first signal being emitted because “M = 0” and “S(second) = 0” with the two planets moving apart.
61 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES
Figure 21. Hyper light speed signal from Planet M to Planet S and then another signal back to Planet M. The second signal arrives prior to the first signal being emitted because “M - S(second) < -αS/M” with the two planets moving apart.
But people on Planet S were unaware of the emission time of the signal because it occurred on Planet M, far away from them, and so are unaware the signal moved backward in time. To make everyone aware of the reverse passage of time, Planet S sent a second hyper-light-speed signal to Planet M the instant they received the signal from Planet M. For this second signal, “S(second) < 0” because the signal traveled from Planet S to the left towards Planet M. “-” in “- i*/2” is because the second signal is on the left side of the “c*tS” axis on the hypercomplex-plane. αS(second) = S(second) - i*/2 2r(second)
;
S(second) < 0
= 1S*(-i*c*B(second))*exp(qx*αS(second)) = 1S*(-i*c*B(second))*exp(qx*(S(second) - i*/2)) = 1S*(-i*c*B(second))*(-jx)*exp(qx*S(second)) = 1S*(c*B(second))*(-qx)*exp(qx*S(second))
c*tS(second) = -c*B(second)*sinh(S(second)) ; xS(second) = -c*B(second)*cosh(S(second)) “S(second) < 0” in “c*tS(second)” and “xS(second)” component equations means “c*tS(second) > 0” for “c*B(second) > 0”. And “xS(second) < 0” for left motion. Relative to Planet S, the total (first signal plus second signal) time elapsed, and the total distance traveled, are given below.
62 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY c*tS(total) = c*tS + c*tS(second) = c*B*sinh(M + αS/M) - c*B(second)*sinh(S(second)) xS(total) = xS + xS(second) = c*B*cosh(M + αS/M) - c*B(second)*cosh(S(second)) The general form of the Lorentz Transformation is now applied to find the arrival time of this second signal on Planet M. 2r(second)

It was specified that “M > 0”, “αS/M < 0” and “S(second) < 0”, therefore “M - S(second) > 0”. If both “M” and “S(second)” are small enough in magnitude (so that the signal speeds are very fast), then “M - S(second) < -αS/M” to the result “c*tM(total) < 0”. If the first signal is a weapon, then the weapon is countered by a second weapon counterattack that goes backward in time to destroy the enemy prior to their initial attack. But then the attack is not initiated,
63 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES and, therefore, the counterattack is not initiated. To avoid such a strange condition, a rule of nature prevents controlled or prescribed information from being transmitted faster than the speed-of-light, to not violate cause-and-effect. The hypothetical violation of cause-and-effect for hyper-light-speed signals is a classic feature of Special Relativity. Matter-waves. An electron’s matter-wave moves at phase speed “vp”. vpM/c = M/kxM = (ħ*M)/(ħ*kxM) = (EM)/(pxM) = coshαM/sinhαM = c/vM Per the above equation (which assumes no potential energy for the electron) phase speed “vpM/c” is the reciprocal of group speed of the electron, “c/vM”. If group speed “vM = 0” (for a stopped electron), then phase speed “vpM” equals reciprocal of zero. If all of space cycled as a wave per “T = exp(i*M*tM)”, then information of the value of “T” can be thought of as being transmitted in both directions of “x” instantly because it goes to the extremes of “x” and back instantly. The wave carries no controlled information and so is not a signal. Controlled information is formed from the interference pattern of the waves. The interference pattern moves at the group speed. The group forms the probability function of particle location, and the group speed is slower than the speed-of-light.
Figure 22. Wavelength node points for a matter-wave, with “vpM > c”.
64 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY
2.10 Anti-Matter Anti-matter was first proposed because of the alternative/opposite electron identified in the solution of the Dirac Equation. A few years later, the anti-matter electron, called the positron, was discovered experimentally. Many years later, Feynman proposed that anti-matter is matter that moves backward in time. (The below proposed use of Special Relativity as the basis of a theory for anti-matter might be new with this book. A search didn’t find it anywhere.)
Figure 23. Back and front are swapped for anti-matter. But more than that, anti-matter is turned inside-out, like a glove, such that the left glove appears to be a right glove. Momentum for matter is on the left figure and is to the right. Momentum for anti-matter is on the right figure and is to the left. An observer made of matter feels the push of the momentum of anti-matter as if it moves to the right, because the observed momentum is a reaction from the push that drove the anti-matter backward in time and space.
An observer sits inside bus “M” and observes a baseball with speed “vM” pass their seat toward the front of the bus, “αM, vM > 0”. Bus speed is represented by “αS/M”. αS/M = (N + 1/2)*i*2* ;
NZ
“αS/M = (N + 1/2)*i*2*” is written simplified to “αS/M = i*”.
65 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES vS/M/c = tanhαS/M = tanh(i*) = i*tan() = i*0 = 0 “αS/M = i*” has no effect on speed. Total speed “vS” of the baseball inside the bus is found by adding hyperbolic-angles. αS = αM + αS/M = αM i* vS/c = tanhαS = tanh(αM i*) = sinh(αM i*)/cosh(αM i*) = (sinh(αM)*cosh(i*) + cosh(αM)*sinh(i*)) /(cosh(αM)*cosh(i*) + sinh(αM)*sinh(i*)) = (sinh(αM)*cos() cosh(αM)*i*sin()) /(cosh(αM)*cos() sinh(αM)*i*sin()) = (-sinhαM)/(-coshαM) = tanhαM “vS = vM = c*tanhαM” even though “αS αM”. General form: 2r
= 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM) = 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)*(exp(qx*i*)/exp(qx*i*)) = 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)*(exp(jx*)/exp(jx*)) = 1M*(c*tB)*exp(qx*αM)*(-1/-1) = (-1M)*((-c*tB)*exp(qx*αM))
c*tS = c*tM*coshαS/M + xM*sinhαS/M = c*tM*cosh(i*) + xM*sinh(i*) = c*tM*cos() i*xM*sin() = c*tM*(-1) i*xM*0 = -c*tM c*tS = c*tB*coshαS = c*tB*cosh(αM + αS/M) = c*tB*cosh(αM + i*) = c*tB*(cosh(αM)*cosh(i*) + sinh(αM)*sinh(i*)) = c*tB*(cosh(αM)*cos() + i*sinh(αM)*sin()) = -c*tB*cosh(αM) = -c*tM

Observer “S” sees time “tS” go forward and, due to “c*tS = -c*tM”, sees time going backward for what observer “M” sees going forward. To visualize this: Observer “S” watches time pass “tB-matter” on his clock and through the bus window sees a clock for “tB-antimatter” made of anti-matter and recognizes “tB-antimatter = -tB-matter”. “B-matter” is the rest frame (“αB-matter = 0”) for matter. In contrast, “αB-antimatter = i*” creates the negative. (It is one-in-the-same with “αS/M = i*” for the bus, with the difference being how reference frames are defined.) For anti-matter insert a negative. c*tB-matter = +((c*tS)2 - xS2) c*tB-antimatter = -((c*tS)2 - xS2) tB-antimatter*cosh(αB-antimatter) = -tB-matter*-cosh(αB-matter) = tB-matter*cosh(αB-matter)
67 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES “c*tS = -c*tM” is complemented by “xS = -xM”. Measuring tape on the floor of the bus has increasing numbers that are negative of the tape on the roadside, and therefore the bus points backward. The clock held by the anti-matter person “M” is observed by person “S” to be moving to smaller numbers and those numbers are reversed left-to-right so that the clock hand moves clockwise, just like the matter clock. Imagine the baseball is rolling on the floor toward the front of the bus (to the right) inside a little toy car frame. Person “M” seated in the bus sees head-lights in front and tail-lights in back. Person “S” standing on the roadside sees the little car frame moving to the right, too, per “vS = vM”, but with tail-lights leading and the headlights following. Person “S” looks at the whole bus and sees the back faces positive “xS” (to the right) and the front faces negative “xS” and concludes “vS = vM” because of the double negative, time and space. Frequency. Person “M” seated in the bus hears clock ticks at frequency “M = B”. Person “S” on the roadside hears tick frequency “S = -M” because “coshS = -coshM”. The hyperbolic-radius of the frequency invariant for anti-matter is negative. B-matter = -B-antimatter
same as
c*tB-matter = -c*tB-antimatter
S = B-antimatter*coshS = B-antimatter*cosh(M + i*) = B-antimatter*cosh(i*) = B-antimatter*-1 = -B-antimatter = B-matter = B-matter*1 = B-matter*cosh(0) = B-matter*coshM Our observation of frequency “S” is positive, both for observing the anti-matter baseball’s clock ticks and for observing the matter baseball’s clock ticks. Therefore “M = B-antimatter” is negative. Energy and Momentum. “ES/c = -EM/c” and “pxS = -pxM”. Person “S” is impacted by an anti-matter baseball and it feels the same as if it were matter. The difference is that the matter baseball was received by person “S”, and the anti-matter baseball was launched by person “S”. Person “S” felt the reaction force from launching it backward in time and space.
68 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY To help visualize matter and anti-matter feeling the same, imagine the baseball re-composes itself into an electric field. The moving electric field induces a magnetic field and therefore has inertia same as mass. Anti-matter has the electric field reversed because anti-matter is what is formed when matter is subtracted from a vacuum. Regardless of the direction of the electric field and its induced magnetic field, the momentum will feel the same when it impacts person “S”. ES(of antimatter)/c = +ES(of matter)/c pxS(of antimatter) = +pxS(of matter) Two particles move down the road and pass person “S”. The matter particle has “S(of matter) R”, “S(of matter) = M”, and “mB-matter > 0”. ES(of matter)/c = mB-matter*c*cosh(S(of matter)) = mB-matter*c*cosh(M) pxS(of matter) = mB-matter*c*sinh(S(of matter)) = mB-matter*c*sinh(M) Anti-matter particle has “S(of antimatter) = M + i*”, and “mB-antimatter < 0”. ES(of antimatter)/c = mB-antimatter*c*cosh(S(of antimatter)) = mB-antimatter*c*cosh(M + i*) = -mB-antimatter*c*cosh(M) = mB-matter*c*cosh(M) = ES(of matter)/c pxS(of antimatter) = mB-antimatter*c*sinh(S(of antimatter)) = mB-antimatter*c*sinh(M + i*) = -mB-antimatter*c*sinh(M) = mB-matter*c*sinh(M) = pxS(of matter) Newtonian Mechanics with Anti-Matter. “mB-antimatter = -mB-matter” should not be put into the context of mass times acceleration equals force, but rather into the context of force equals the time derivative of momentum, as Newton originally presented his second law. Per “pxS(of antimatter) = +pxS(of matter)” the negative mass of anti-matter is inconsequential. Negative rest mass also affects Newton’s Law of Gravity, but General Relativity, which uses energy and not mass, supersedes it, and per “ES(of antimatter)/c = +ES(of matter)/c” the negative mass of anti-matter is
69 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES inconsequential. Note that anti-matter has not been produced in a quantity large enough to measure force due to gravity. Reverse Parity of Anti-Matter. A bus in reverse parity is perhaps best visualized using a right-hand glove. Fingers point to positive “x”. Pull fingers through the open end to turn it inside out. Fingers now point to negative “x” and the glove looks like a left-hand glove. That same operation is not possible with a bus or particle. Rather, imagine the bus is an illustration on a sheet of paper as one page in a book sitting flat on a table. The page is turned by lifting it up and placing it upside down on the other side of the book to create a mirror image. If ever anti-matter is made from its matter counterpart, then it will have been rotated through another dimension, just as the page had to be lifted out of the plane of the table. This page-turning visualization is a classic interpretation of the reverse parity of anti-matter. Anti-matter Electric Current Density. Electric charge “QB” is in a space derivative (with respect to “xB” as a second reference to reference frame “B”) to form electric charge density “B-matter = dQB/dxB” as the hyperbolicradius of the current density invariant “2J”. B-matter = dQB-matter/dxB-matter
;
2J
= 1M*B-matter*exp(qx*M)
The ratio of anti-matter electric charge to location, formed as a derivative, has a double negative, and, therefore, no negative. QB-antimatter = -QB-matter
;
dQB-antimatter = -dQB-matter
xB-antimatter = -xB-matter
;
dxB-antimatter = -dxB-matter
dQB-antimatter/dxB-antimatter = -dQB-matter/-dxB-matter = dQB-matter/dxB-matter B-antimatter = +B-matter The Lorentz Transformation from matter observed in bus “M” to anti-matter observed from the roadside “S” uses “S/M = i*”.

= 1M*JtM + qxM*JxM = 1M*B-matter*exp(qx*M) = 1M*B-matter*exp(qx*M)*exp(qx*i*)/exp(qx*i*)) = 1M*B-matter*exp(qx*M)*(-1)/(-1) = (1M*/(-1))*(-B-matter)*exp(qx*αM) = 1S*(-B-matter)*coshαM + qxS*(-B-matter)*sinhαM = 1S*(-B-matter)*coshαM + qxS*(-B-matter)*sinhαM = 1S*(-JtM) + qxS*(-JxM) = 1S*JtS + qxS*JxS
“JtS = -JtM” and “JxS = -JxM” state the electric charge density and the electric current density become negative. Because “B-antimatter = B-matter”: JtS(of antimatter) = -JtS(of matter)
JxS(of antimatter) = -JxS(of matter)
(The analogous equations for energy-momentum did not have the negative.) Two particles pass person “S”. Matter particle: “S(of matter) R”, “S(of matter) = M”, and “B-matter > 0”. JtS(of matter) = B-matter*c*cosh(S(of matter)) = B-matter*c*cosh(M) JxS(of matter) = B-matter*c*sinh(S(of matter)) = B-matter*c*sinh(M) For the anti-matter particle “S(of antimatter) = M + i*”, “B-antimatter > 0”. JtS(of antimatter) = B-antimatter*c*cosh(S(of antimatter)) = B-antimatter*c*cosh(M + i*) = B-antimatter*c*-cosh(M) = B-matter*c*-cosh(M) = -JtS(of matter) JxS(of antimatter) = B-antimatter*c*sinh(S(of antimatter)) = B-antimatter*c*sinh(M + i*) = B-antimatter*c*-sinh(M) = B-matter*c*-sinh(M) = -JxS(of matter) “JtS(of antimatter) = -JtS(of matter)” says anti-matter electric charge density is the negative of matter. Specifically, for the electron, the anti-electron (called the positron) is observed in “S” having a positive electric charge (compared to negative charge of the electron).
71 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES “JxS(of antimatter) = -JxS(of matter)” states anti-matter electric current density is the negative of matter. A flow of positively charged particles is the negative of a flow of negatively charged particles.
Figure 24. Anti-matter moving from future to past contrasted with matter moving from past to future, for “S(matter) = M” and “S(anti-matter) = M i*”.
Matter-waves of Anti-matter. A factory makes anti-matter one particle at a time and assembles an anti-matter bus, an android, and a rubber bounce ball. The (anti-matter) rubber ball bounces off walls of the (antimatter) bus with smaller and smaller bounces losing energy to friction and eventually stops. Time appeared to go forward, just like for us in the factory made of matter. To explain this, we can propose that the direction of time is determined by the particle that makes the observation (which is us made of matter), and not by the particle being observed (which is the bouncing ball). This would make sense in terms of quantum mechanics because the “collapse of the wave function” in which particle properties get specified, is an observation. What would the android made of anti-matter observe of us? How would it view the two slit experiment? Can time move in both directions in our cosmological model of the universe? What experiments are needed?

2.11 Distributed Material Theory A distributed material is a field of point particles, each point with an infinitesimal quantity. Examples are a fluid, a solid, an electromagnetic field, and a distributed electric charge. Each is spread through space as a continuum and varies in time. Differential calculus applies. Space-Negative. Time-space differential gradient operator invariant “4sn” (del) is the mathematical tool for distributed material. 4

translates to all number expression 4
sn
= 1Msn*tM + qxMsn*xM + qyMsn*yM + qzMsn*zM
Space-negative operator “sn” has two aspects: Space compoundlabel-numbers “qxMsn”, “qyMsn” and “qzMsn” are negative, and the Lorentz Transformation is inverted. The inverted Lorentz Transformation compensates for the lack of a negative on “1M”. A space-negative is necessary because time and space are in the denominator for “4”. A long rod has temperature “1T” along its length. Invariant “1T” can loosely be called a “scalar” field. The compound-label-number associated with a scalar field is integer “1”. It is devoid of a reference to the unspecified-speed-parameter “”, but is “compound”, regardless. 1T(tM,
xM) = C + a*tM + b*xM
The rod is mounted inside bus “M” and moves with the bus. “1T” has slope “b” (measured in degrees centigrade per meter) and increases at rate “a” (measured in degrees centigrade per second) when measured by a person seated on bus “M”. T/ctM = a/c
;
T/xM = b
The two gradients are placed into a time-space gradient invariant.
73 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES 2
sn
*1T = 1Msn*T/ctM + qxMsn*T/xM = 1Msn*(a/c) + qxMsn*b
The time-space gradient operator is 2
sn
= 1Msn*/ctM + qxMsn*/xM
Multiplication symbol “*” after operator “2sn” tells us to think of “2sn” as an invariant. Bus “M” moves at speed “vS/M” relative to roadside “S”. Gradients “T/ctS” and “T/xS” are measured. 2
sn
*1T = 1Ssn*T/ctS + qxSsn*T/xS ;
2
sn
= 1Ssn*/ctS + qxSsn*/xS
Figure 25. Temperature “T” at point “xS” decreases when the bus moves forward at speed “vS/M > 0”. Therefore, “TS/ctS < 0” for “TM/xM > 0”.
Bus “M” moves forward (“vS/M > 0”) to present colder and colder temperature to location “xS” if “a = 0” and “b > 0”, so that “T/ctS < 0”. Colder temperature requires a negative. T/ctS = (T/ctM)*(coshS/M) + (T/xM)*(-sinhS/M) = (a/c)*(coshS/M) + (b)*(-sinhS/M) T/xS = (T/ctM)*(-sinhS/M) + (T/xM)*(coshS/M) = (a/c)*(-sinhS/M) + (b)*(coshS/M)
74 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY To better see the negative, consider a non-relativistic speed by replacing “sinhS/M” with “vS/M/c” and “coshS/M” with “1”. T/ctS = -b*vS/M/c
T/xS = b
Using the above “T/ctS” and “T/xS” information, onecomponent invariant “1T” can be expressed in terms of “c*tS” and “xS”. 1T(tS,
xS) = C + (T/ctS)*(c*tS) + (T/xS)*(xS)
= C + ((T/ctM)*(coshS/M) + (T/xM)*(-sinhS/M))*(c*tS) + ((T/ctM)*(-sinhS/M) + (T/xM)*(coshS/M))*(xS) To prove this is correct, derive “1T(tM, xM)” from “1T(tS, xS)”. 1T(tS,
xS) = C + ((T/ctM)*(coshS/M) + (T/xM)*(-sinhS/M)) *((c*tM)*(coshS/M) + (xM)*(sinhS/M)) + ((T/ctM)*(-sinhS/M) + (T/xM)*(coshS/M)) *((c*tM)*(sinhS/M) + (xM)*(coshS/M)) = C + (T/ctM)*c*tM + (T/xM)*xM = 1T(tM, xM)
Gradient operators based on those equations are below. /ctS = (/ctM)*(coshS/M) + (/xM)*(-sinhS/M) /xS = (/ctM)*(-sinhS/M) + (/xM)*(coshS/M) tS = tM*coshαS/M - xM*sinhαS/M xS = -tM*sinhαS/M + xM*coshαS/M The critical concept here is the “-” sign in front of “sinhS/M”. This “-” sign makes the Lorentz Transformation for “2sn” the opposite (or inverse) of the Lorentz Transformation for “2r”, given below. c*tS = (c*tM)*(coshS/M) + (xM)*(sinhS/M) xS = (c*tM)*(sinhS/M) + (xM)*(coshS/M)
75 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES There is no negative sign in the above “2r” invariant equations. Negatives make the two Lorentz Transformations inverses of each other. A matrix multiplied by its inverse equals one. coshS/M

Including “-” with “sinhαS/M” makes the Lorentz Transformation for “2sn” special. To show it is special, it is given symbol “sn”. Space Negative on Other Invariants. “sn” applies to other invariants. “2k = (M/c)*itM + kxM*ixM” translates to “2k = 1M*(M/c) + qxM*kxM”. S/c = (M/c)*(coshS/M) + (kxM)*(sinhS/M) kxS = (M/c)*(sinhS/M) + (kxM)*(coshS/M) “2k = (M/c)*itM - kxM*ixM” translates to“2ksn = 1Msn*(M/c) + qxMsn*kxM”. S/c = (M/c)*(coshS/M) - (kxM)*(sinhS/M) kxS = -(M/c)*(sinhS/M) + (kxM)*(coshS/M) “2ksn” is abnormal (because of the negative before “ixM”). When we use “2ksn”, we are modelling a wave-number in a special way, for example, for anti-matter, if we choose that anti-matter moves to the left for positive “M” when matter moves to the right for positive “M”, as will be done in the chapter on waves. “2ksn” being abnormal is unlike the time-space gradient operator “2sn”, because the space-negative on the gradient operator “2sn” is normal (because of the positive before “ixM”). Multiplication Operation with the Space Negative. Because of the inverted matrix, space label-numbers are negative. Also, multiplication needs a hypercomplex-conjugate, for another negative. 2

“(T/ctM)*(c*tM) + (T/xM)*(xM)” has a “+” sign between the two terms. It is different from “((2k)*j)•(2r)”, as given below, because “((2k)*j)•(2r)” has a negative sign “-” between the two terms.

“6E” is the electromagnetic field invariant from the next chapter.

Theory-Development-Algebra Mathematics. “((4)*jsn)•(4) = 0” is the same as fluid mass conservation from engineering class, where it is written “/t + 3•(*3v) = 0” for which “3v = vx*ix + vy*iy + vz*iz” is velocity. In engineering class, it was derived very pragmatically by equating what goes into and out of a cube to what is inside.
78 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY “/t + 3•(*3v) = 0” appeared strange because “+” is between time and space terms, and not “-” as in “((2k)*j)•(2r) = *t - kx*x”. The “+” is now explained by use of the much less efficient nomenclature of the space-negative in the all-number theory-development-algebra. Theorydevelopment-algebra is much more symbol intensive and is being used because our purpose for math has changed from engineering calculations to theory development, with the benefit being we see how mass conservation fits into the larger scheme of patterns in our world. Tensor notation calculus of General Relativity is a form of differential geometry and also is an engineering-calculation-algebra. Covariant variables time and space are in the denominator of a derivative with the result being a contravariant vector. A contravariant vector is the tensor notation calculus analogy to the space-negative and special rules state where to insert negatives. The challenge is to create a theorydevelopment-algebra for General Relativity that can replace tensor notation calculus. The challenge looks difficult. Example of Particle Count Conservation. A pile of gravel moves in the positive “x” direction. Particle count starts on the left of “xB” in “dCountB/dxB = A*exp( -(xB*kxB)2 )”.
Figure 26. A moving pile of gravel of height “h”.
79 CHAPTER 2 – PARTICLES Subscript “B” identifies the rest frame of the pile of gravel and is the same as “M”. “dCountB/dxB” is placed into a time-space invariant “2lump” by multiplying it by the compound-label-number “1B”. 2lump

Use a Lorentz Transformation to derive “lumptS” and “lumpxS”. 2lump

Substitution “xB = (xS - vS*tS)*coshαS” was derived from the Lorentz Transformation from “B” to “S”. c*tS = c*tB*coshαS + xB*sinhαS ; c*tB = c*tS*coshαS - xS*sinhαS xS = c*tB*sinhαS + xB*coshαS ; xB = -c*tS*sinhαS + xS*coshαS xB = -c*tS*sinhαS + xS*coshαS ; c*tB = c*tS*coshαS - xS*sinhαS = xS*coshαS - c*tS*sinhαS = c*tS*coshαS - xS*sinhαS = xS*coshαS - c*tS*tanhαS*coshαS = c*tS*coshαS - xS*tanhαS*coshαS = (xS - tanhαS*c*tS)*coshαS = (c*tS - tanhαS*xS)*coshαS = (xS - vS*tS)*coshαS = c*(tS - vS*xS/c2)*coshαS The conservation law is applied.

Conservation Law with a Space-Negative Invariant. Abnormal spacenegative invariant “2anti-lumpsn” has subscript “anti” to indicate it applies to anti-matter because if matter moves to the right, then the equivalent anti-matter is chosen to move to the left (if observed by the same observer), and that is because the space-negative operator means the negative of space, or, with respect to movement, the opposite direction. “2anti-lumpsn” and “2ksn” invariants are abnormal because the geometric translation has “+it” and “-ix”, same as the abnormal “2”. This is in contrast to “+ix” of the geometric translation for normal invariants “2lump”, “2k” and “2sn”. For matter invariant “2lump”, movement in the positive “xM” direction is identified by “xB = xM - vM*tM”. In contrast, space-negative anti-matter invariant “2anti-lumpsn” includes “xB = xM + vM*tM”. The “+” rather than “-” means movement is in the opposite direction. “xB = xM - vM*tM” was derived from the Lorentz Transformation. In contrast, “xB = xM + vM*tM” for the space-negative is derived from the inverse matrix Lorentz Transformation for “2rsn”, rather than for “2r”. (The inverse matrix has the negatives on the “sinhαS/M”.) Alternatively, “xB = xM + vM*tM” can be derived from “-2ksn*j•2r” rather than from “-2k*j•2r” if speed “vM” is frequency divided by wavenumber. The overall movement of electric charge particles is the same for matter to the right or for anti-matter to the left: For matter, if “q = 1” is the quantity of electric charge per particle, then the count that passes point “xS” moving right is proportional to the total electric charge and is positive. For anti-matter the count is negative because “q = -1”. Using the space-negative, those negative particles move left past point “xS” and so get subtracted, for a double negative.

Questions for Further Thought.
88 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY 1) If unspecified-speed-parameter “” is a rational number, then it cannot be infinite, has equal probability of being positive or negative, and has equal probability of magnitude less than one or greater than one. This probability function “P(s)” is given in Chapter 5. What alternative assumption might we make for the structure of “”? Numerator only, for equal probability of being any number on the number-line? 2) Assume “αS/M = i*” and find “c*tS”, “xS”, “vS/M/c” and “vS/c”. If “ ≠ z*/2” for “z Z”, what problem is there? Should we make a rule (as a theory of physics), so that we mimic nature? 3) Is an invariant with hyperbolic-radius “dmB/dxB” or “QB” useful? 4) What does “N” in “αS/M = i**(2*N + 1)” represent physically? 5) What might an anti-matter person observe of us with respect to entropy increase, cause and effect, and successive collapses of matter-wave functions? Does the anti-matter person see us moving backward relative to their sense of time? Propose a cosmological model of the universe. 6) Rewrite the section on anti-matter electric current but substitute angular momentum for electric current. 7) Explain why “/tM + 3•(*3v) = 0” has the two terms added, in contrast to the subtraction in “(2r*j)•(2r) = (c*tM)2 - (xM2 + yM2 + zM2)”. 8) Assume information transfer between detectors in the EPR experiment (see an Appendix) occurs instantly. Try to design an experiment in which detectors move away from each other so that the detectors prove time can step backward. 9) Is the angular momentum density invariant the missing spacelike energy-momentum invariant as measurement units imply it is? If time-like energy-momentum is formed from induced electromagnetic fields (as explained in the next chapter), what fields could produce the space-like energy-momentum invariant?
89 CHAPTER 3 – FIELDS
Chapter 3 – Fields Using his equations, Maxwell derived that the speed for light was independent of the observer’s speed. To explain it, Einstein proposed Special Relativity. Imagine light traveling between two people side-byside on a bus. The path is longer when observed by a person on the roadside because the path has a component in the direction of bus travel. To keep the speed for light constant, a clock-tower shows faster passage of time compared to a clock mounted inside the moving bus.

Maxwell evolved his equations and settled on component equations, and a little before year 1900, Heaviside and others applied geometric-unit-vectors “ix”, “iy”, and “iz”, dot-product “•”, cross-product “x”, and gradient operator “3”.

In other words, electric charge is the source of an electric field.

Gauss’s Law for Magnetism. “3•3B = 0” states there are no magnetic field charges (in contrast to the existence of electric charges). Faraday’s Law of Electric Field Induction. “3x3E = -(3B)/t” states a time varying magnetic field is a source of vorticity for an induced electric field.

Switch “s” closes to initiate a flow of current “i”, to create an iron magnet inside wire coils. The gap of cross-section area “A” in the iron has increasing magnitude magnetic field “dBx/dt”, which is negative. Changing magnetic field induces an electric field per “Ecircumferential*(2**r) = -(dBx/dt)*A”, for “r > (A/)” (for “r” outside the gap).
Ampere’s Law of Magnetic Field Induction. “3x3B = *3j + ((3E)/t)/c2” states vorticity of an induced magnetic field is created by a time varying electric field and/or by electric current density.

Figure 30. Ampere’s Law of Induction. Magnetic field times length along a closed curve (a circle) equals the rate of change of the electric field times area enclosed by the closed curve, plus the electric current through the area. Switch “s” closes to initiate a current that induces a magnetic field around the wire of strength “Bcircumferential = 0*i/(2**r)”. The magnetic field continues along the wire so that it also exists around the capacitor of area “A”, per “Bcircumferential*(2**r) = (dEx/dt)*A/c2” for the radius outside the area of the capacitor.
Figure 31. Electric Charge Conservation. The flow of electric charge out a closed surface (a cube), calculated as electric current density times area of the surface, equals the negative change in electric charge inside. In other words, electric charge cannot be created or destroyed. The box on the right contains one of the two capacitor plates. The change in electric charge on the capacitor plate inside the box is “dq/dt < 0” as noticed by the increase in the electric field “Ex”. The box is penetrated by the wire out the right for which the current “i” equals the current density “Jx” times the cross-section area of the wire. The conservation equation reduces to “i + dq/dt = 0”.
94 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Electric Charge Conservation. “/t + 3•3j = 0”, rewritten “-/t = 3•3j”, states the divergence of an electric current density equals the negative of the change in electric charge density.

Lorenz Condition Electric Charge Conservation Equation
“4J” relates to “4V” by the square of the gradient operator. By analogy, voltage is related to the first super-potential “4U”, “4*jsn•(4U) = 0”. (4J) = (4sn•4*jsn)*(4V) = (tM2 - xM2 - yM2 - zM2)*(4V) (4V) = (4sn•4*jsn)*(4U) = (tM2 - xM2 - yM2 - zM2)*(4U) Super-potentials and sub-potentials extend indefinitely. “(4sn•4*jsn) = (tM2 - xM2 - yM2 - zM2)” is called the “harmonic operator” because, if “4J = 0”, then “4V” is a summation of sine waves. The physical example is light waves. Fields. Between each pair of adjacent potentials is a six-component field. “6E” is between “4J” and “4V”. 4

To keep “4V” real, “2P” must be real. 0 = 4*jsn•(4V) = 4*jsn•(4V’) + 4*jsn•(4sn*2P) = 4*jsn•(4V’) + (4*jsn•4sn)*2P Complex number field “2P” is called the field gauge. The simplest version of “4sn*2P” is a constant, and a change to that constant is a change to the ground of the voltage time component. Space-Component Field Gauge does not affect the Lorenz Condition, but, rather, adds a term to the electromagnetic field “6E”. 3

Electromagnetic field harmonic term “(4*jsn•4sn)*(-6Q)” is similar in structure to the super-field equation given below. (-6E) = (4*jsn•4sn)*(-6H) = (tM2 - xM2 - yM2 - zM2)*(-6H) Concluding Statement. Super-potentials and gauge fields place Maxwell’s Equations into a larger (and mathematically beautiful) structure. Identities are easily identified in an all-number algebra but not in the geometric algebra used when Maxwell’s Equations were first discovered.

3.4 Lorentz Transformation The Lorentz Transformation transforms components and compoundlabel-numbers from “M” (moving because seated on the bus) to “S” (stationary because standing on the roadside). The general form has two “1” factors, left and right.

A check ensured “6E = 6E”: To check that the theory is correct, “M” Lorentz Transformation components and label-numbers for “4*jsn” and “4V” substitute into the “S” version of “-6E = 4*jsnx(4V)”, so that the subscripts are all “M” and not “S”. Components and compound-labelnumbers are grouped to “-6E” expressed in “M”. Also, the component transformations are confirmed by reference to Page 71 of Introduction to Modern Physics by Richtmyer, Kennard and Lauritsen, McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc., 1955 and by reference to Page 210 of Methods of Theoretical Physics Part I by Morse and Feshbach, McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc., 1953.

(The author hasn’t seen the above component equations in a book or paper. That statement is common in this book, but with the expectation there is a book or paper not yet seen.) From Wikipedia (“Biot-Savart Law”) attributed to Oliver Heaviside in year 1888 (before the discovery of Special Relativity in 1905): ExSW = (q/(4**ǝ))*((1 - vS/M2/c2)/(1 - sin2*(vS/M2/c2))3/2)*(xS/rS3) KxSW = 0 EySW = (q/(4**ǝ))*((1 - vS/M2/c2)/(1 - sin2*(vS/M2/c2))3/2)*(yS/rS3) KySW = -(vS/M/c)*EzS EzSW = (q/(4**ǝ))*((1 - vS/M2/c2)/(1 - sin2*(vS/M2/c2))3/2)*(zS/rS3) KzSW = (vS/M/c)*EyS cos = xS/rS ; sin2 = (yS2 + zS2)/rS2 ; rS2 = xS2 + yS2 + zS2 The two sets of electromagnetic component expressions in “S” appear very different. Component values deviate with slightly higher values for Heaviside’s expressions (with the “W” subscript) for relativistic speeds and for “xS” locations far from the origin. For example, at “S/M = 6” and “xS = yS = 1” with “zS = 0” there is “ExS = EyS = 0.0000246” and “ExSW = EySW = 0.0000548”, for “q/(4**ǝ) = 1”. The deviation between “EyS” and “EySW” may possibly be attributed to a non-relativistic approximation in Heaviside’s derivation (for example “sinh2αS/M vS/M2/c2”). That guess has not been confirmed. Translation from All-Number Algebra to Geometry. We could use measurements to resolve the discrepancy. Translate all-number algebra into geometry per the third step. “ixS”, “iyS” and “izS” substitute for “pxS”, “pyS” and “pzS” and for “kxS”, “kyS” and “kzS”.

3.6 Electric Energy-Momentum of an Electron Energy-momentum invariant “4p” is calculated from electro-magnetic field invariant “6E” using empirically derived relationships. Bus “M” moves at speed “vS/M” relative to roadside “S”. “6E” components are used to find energy-momentum invariant “4p” components. As a check, energy-momentum invariant (“4p”) components in “S” found from “6E” must also be found from energymomentum invariant (“4p”) components in “M”.
Figure 32. Left: Two parallel capacitor plates. Right: Two concentric capacitor plates.
Select the simplest geometry possible. •
For a field parallel with motion, the two capacitor plates are perpendicular to motion.
•
For a field perpendicular to motion, the two capacitor plates are cylindrical concentric circular surfaces with the axis parallel to motion.
Electric charge may be placed onto capacitor plates using a battery. Alternatively, the plates are close together and then electrically charged, and pulled apart: Energy equals force times distance. Bus mass converts to electric field energy and back again. Energy and momentum (and therefore speed) remain constant during the mass to electric field energy conversion.

And, energy per area per time “⊥xS” is positive for positive “αS/M”, so that energy moves in the direction of motion.

Multiplication by volume must be an integral because of radius “r” dependency in “⊥tS” and “⊥xS”. We continue the empirical analysis using space-negative of volume, and by making the volume invariant mathematically real rather than imaginary. Differential volume element “d(4Volsn)” consists of an “LxM” factor in the x-direction, a factor in the radial direction, and a factor in the tangential direction, “d(4Volsn) = 1S*(LxM)*(2**r)*dr*exp(-qx*αS/M)”. The integration was from “rinnerplate” to “routerplate”. d4p = (⊥tS + qx*⊥xS)*d(4Volsn)/c = ǝ*((A2/r2)/2)*exp2(qx*αS/M)*(1S*dVolB*exp(-qx*αS/M))/c = ǝ*((A2/r2)/2)*exp2(qx*αS/M)*(1S*(LxM)*(2**r)*dr*exp(-qx*αS/M))/c = 1S*(ǝ/c)*(A2/2)*exp(qx*αS/M)*LxM*(2*)*(dr/r) 4p

Rest mass “mB*c”: mB*c = (ǝ/c)*(A2/2)*LxM*(2*)*ln(routerplate/rinnerplate) We conclude, in general, any electromagnetic field perpendicular to the direction of motion may be replaced with an equivalent rest mass. An Electromagnetic Field Parallel to Motion. ExS = ExM

Positive “ExM” points right, in the direction of motion, because of a deficit of electrons on the left plate, and excess electrons on the right. (Left plate has the higher voltage.) Per “ExS = ExM”, a positive test charge “qTest” stationary with roadside “S” experiences the same force “qTest*ExS” regardless of speed “vS/M” of the bus. But note that energy must be applied to the bus to keep its speed constant because the test charge is repulsed by the left capacitor plate. If the test charge is stationary with respect to the bus, there is force “FxM = qTest*ExM” observed with both time and space components from the roadside because “xM = xS*cosh(αS/M) - c*tS*sinh(αS/M)”. To satisfy energy and momentum conservation, use the same basic form of energy density equations given for the case of the perpendicular electric field. (The below equations weren’t found in a book or paper.) ||tS = ǝ*(ExS*ExS + KxS*KxS)*cosh(2*αS/M)/2 = ǝ*(ExM*ExM + KxM*KxM)*cosh(2*αS/M)/2 ||xS = ǝ*(ExS*ExS + KxS*KxS)*sinh(2*αS/M)/2 = ǝ*(ExM*ExM + KxM*KxM)*sinh(2*αS/M)/2 “||tS” is positive because of squares and the “cosh” function.

Inside the classical radius is the electric charge. If we count electrons, then we are counting a quantity of electric charge.
•
Outside the classical radius is the electric field. Inertia of the energy-momentum invariant is, per this model, due to electromagnetic field induction.
The classical radius macroscopic model of the electron fails when extended to the magnetic field caused by rotation, to suggest the classical radius is not a physically real surface. Mu and tau particles differ from the electron by having more rest mass and by being unstable. Rather than calculate a smaller classical radius for these particles, the extra mass can be attributed to whatever field causes the instability. The whatever field behaves like mass inertia, as does the electromagnetic field, and so probably creates an induced field when in motion.

These include cosine waves (because ninety degrees can be added into the argument) and any motion at the speed of light (because its wave form can be a summation using different wavenumbers per a Fourier transform).

The Poynting Vector is the cross product of the electric field by the magnetic field. For example, for the First Spiral Wave there are “EyMfirst = Eamp*sin(kxM*(xM + c*tM))” and “KzMfirst = -Eamp*sin(kxM*(xM + c*tM))” as two components of a plane wave that induce each other. For a slightly positive “xM” at “tM = 0” there is “EyMfirst > 0” and “KzMfirst < 0”. Right-hand fingers pass through positive “yM” and then through negative “zM” and the thumb points in negative “xM”, which is correct for the First Spiral Wave. Therefore, induction is correctly modeled. Right-Handed and Left-Handed Spiral Waves. Point the thumb in the direction of wave travel (“+x” for “xM - c*tM” and “-x” for “xM + c*tM”). The maximum of the helix of the wave spiral is similar to threads on a screw. Curl fingers to ride the maximum as the thumb moves in the direction of wave travel.

Set “tM = 0”. Fingers pass positive “Ez”, then at “kxM*xM = /2”, negative “Ey” using a right hand. The Fourth Spiral Wave is right-handed. The Third Spiral Wave is left hand because fingers pass negative “Ez” at “xM = 0”, and then positive “Ey” at “kxM*xM = -/2”. 3Ethird

A (non-spinning) source disintegrates into two photons with the same handedness, like a nut that separates from a bolt that depart in opposite directions with the same handedness of spin. Right-Handed Photon Pair (first and fourth): 6E+fourth-first

Quantum Effect on Spin. The four spiral waves each represent an idealized hypothetical photon’s wave. They are idealized because direction is known, as is frequency, and spin axis is known to be parallel or else anti-parallel to direction of motion. Actual photon waves, per quantum effects, have spin in the direction of motion only if the

Matter and Anti-Matter for Electromagnetic Waves. Because a photon has zero length due to the extreme of length contraction, its back side (taillights) is confounded with its front side (headlights), so there is no distinguishing between matter and anti-matter. Regardless, they are paired with direction of motion: First with third and second with fourth. Lorentz Transformation of a Spiral Wave.

133 CHAPTER 3 – FIELDS Energy Rate. A current of positive charge flows from a high voltage “+” battery terminal to the “-” at a lower value of “x”, “q*vx < 0”. “Ex < 0” because “Ex = -Vt/x”. Energy transfers out from the electrical system into heat when both “vx” and “Ex” are the same sign (both are negative) because “Ftr = q*(3v/c)•3E > 0”. An imaginary rate of energy change “Fti” that cannot be measured occurs when current flows parallel to a magnetic field. Ft = Ftr i*Fti = q*(3v/c)•3E i*q*3v•3B
Figure 34. Energy is lost in a resistor so that “Ftr = q*(3v/c)•3E > 0”.

If the field from test charge “4J” were included in the externally applied electromagnetic field “6E”, then the force would be there, regardless. Substitute “4sn*(-6E) = (4J)” into “4g”. 4g
= -(4sn*(-6E))*(-6E) = -(4sn*6E)*6E = -((4sn*6E)♦6E + (4sn*6E)■6E) = -((4sn♦6E)♦6E + (4sn■6E)♦6E + (4sn♦6E)■6E + (4sn■6E)■6E)

Second and Third have imaginary components. The first row sums to the real portion of “4g”. The third row sums to the imaginary portion of “4g”. The second and fourth rows each sum to zero but individual terms in the second and fourth rows are not zero, for example, “(1sn*3K)•3K 0”.
135 CHAPTER 3 – FIELDS Time component terms of the first row are given below. Gradient operator “” only applies to the component factor immediately behind it, and not to both field component factors, to simplify what is written.

A positive value is a loss of energy, and the term is positive because energy “ExM*ExM” is positive. The gradient is negative because it is a loss of energy, and the “-1” makes “gtM” positive. The math is as expected. Good. “-(1sn*3K)•3K” of the fourth row has “-(tM*KxM)*KxM*i2 = tM*(KxM*KxM)/2”. “i2” was introduced by label-numbers because “3K” is mathematically imaginary if “3E” is mathematically real. The extra negative is bad because “3K•3K = -K2” is subtracted from “3E•3E = +E2” in “3E•3E + 3K•3K = E2 - K2”, in contradiction to experiments for which total energy density is “E2 + K2”. To fix this, a negative is needed for “3K”. To help specify how to insert the negative, second row term “3E•3K” plus third row term “3K•3E” should subtract to cancel. And, first row “3Ex3K” needs to subtract from its negative “3Kx3E” of the fourth row for conformance to the experimentally derived Poynting Vector. The conclusion is that the fourth row needs a negative relative to the first row, and that negative is acceptable because the fourth row sums to zero. The second row also sums to zero and it needs a negative
136 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY relative to the third row. Also, because the imaginary force of the third row is not measurable, the second and third rows can be either plus or minus relative to the first row. Place “1” with the first “■” and “-1” with the second “■”. 4f
= -((4sn♦6E)♦6E (4sn■6E)♦6E -(4sn♦6E)■6E - (4sn■6E)■6E)
The components of “4f” separate into models of physics with two examples being electromagnetic field energy density and the Poynting vector. Note that “4fr = 4gr”. Also, “4f = 4fr i*4fi”. Mathematically Ugly. Because of the inserted negatives, “4f” cannot be expressed using “*” operator gradients, and that means “4f” is ugly. By analogy, the dot product in the exponential function, “4k*j•4r”, is ugly because cross-product “4k*jx4r” is not added to it. This ugliness is explained by equating “4k*j•4r” to the product of hyperbolic radii. The ugliness of “4f”, too, goes away. “4f” becomes beautiful using the proposed algebra in this book’s last chapter.

Per nothing Gradient (per length) differential operator “4sn” (del) Per area differential operator “6sn” (theta) Per volume differential operator “4sn” (xi) Per world volume differential operator “1” (omega)
144 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY The count of terms matches a row of Pascal’s Triangle: 1, 4, 6, 4, 1. The first “1” is for a One-Component Invariant. It is Lorentz Transformed by Lorentz Transforming components it depends on. Electric current density “4J” uses the per volume differential operator. Finding Wavenumber. “4sn” can be made equivalent to a wavenumber/frequency invariant “4k” with consideration as to what function “1T” is. The first example is “1T = A*sin(kxM*xM - M*tM)”.

= A*(1M*(-M/c) + qxM*(-kxM))*cos(kxM*xM - M*tM) = A*(-4k)*cos(kxM*xM - M*tM) “1T = A*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM))” avoids the change from sine to cosine. 4
sn
*(A*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM))) = A*(4sn*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM))) = A*(1Msn*/ctM + qxMsn*/xM)*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM)) = A*(1Msn*(-i*M/c) + qxMsn*(i*kxM))*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM)) = A*i*(1M*(-M/c) + qxM*(-kxM))*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM)) = i*(-4k)*A*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM))
“4sn = -i*4k” (which has terms “1Msn*/ctM = 1M*(-i*M/c)” and “qxM */xM = qxM*(-i*kxM)”) is an abbreviation of “4sn*(1T) = -i*4k*(1T) and is exclusive to “1T = A*exp(i*(kxM*xM - M*tM))”. “i*4sn = 4k” is used in the next chapter on waves. sn
* Note: The remaining portion of this chapter can be bypassed A Linear Scalar Field’s Gradient. A count (zero, one, two, three, four, and higher) is equally spaced along the “x” axis. Count is an invariant scalar field represented by the below expression. The compound-labelnumber in “1Count” is “1”. 1Count
= b*xM
145 CHAPTER 3 – FIELDS Visualize “1Count” as a long rod on which numbers are written: Zero at the back of the bus and increasing forward (“b > 0”).

+ qzMsn*/zM)*(b*xM)
“4sn*(1Count) = qxMsn*b” states “1Count” varies by gradient “b” in the “qxMsn” direction (that is, positive “ixM” direction). “1Count” is Lorentz Transformed from “1Count = b*xM” to “1Count = b*(xS*cosh(αS/M) - c*tS*sinh(αS/M))”, after which a gradient “4sn” is taken. 4
*(b*xM) = 4sn*(b*(xS*cosh(αS/M) - c*tS*sinh(αS/M))) = b*(-1Msn*/ctM*c*tS*sinh(αS/M) + qxMsn*/xM*xS*cosh(αS/M)) = b*(-1Msn*sinh(αS/M) + qxMsn*cosh(αS/M))
sn
Alternatively, “4sn*(1Count) = qxMsn*b” is Lorentz Transformed to the result “4sn*(1Count) = 1Ssn*b*sinh(αS/M) + qxSsn*b*cosh(αS/M)”, per the matrix equation below. “/ctM*(1Count) = 0”. /ctS*(1Count)

b*cosh(αS/M)
Either method has the same result. 4
sn
*(1Count) = 1Ssn*b*(-sinh(αS/M)) + qxSsn*b*cosh(αS/M)
Time component “-b*sinh(αS/M)” of “4sn*(1Count)” is negative because “1Count” decreases at rate “-b*sinh(αS/M)” when observed from one location “xS” (for “αS/M > 0”). If we are standing on roadside “S” looking at numbers, then the numbers decrease.
146 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Rather than care about numbers, we can care about spacing of the numbers and the rate numbers pass us. Spacing of numbers, called wavenumber, is a positive value (if we select it to be positive). The rate at which numbers pass us, called frequency, is positive (per that selection). We continue to use the gradient operator, but we must transition away from the gradient operator invariant with its spacenegative to the wavenumber-frequency invariant that has no spacenegative (because now “qxM” translates to “ixM”). Remove the space-negative in “4sn*(1Count) = qxMsn*b” by replacing “qxMsn” with “-qxM” so that “4sn*(1Count) = -qxM*b = -4k”. 4

On the floor inside bus “M” is a rectangular array of particles. On each particle is a sequential number in the “x” direction and a sequential number in the “y” direction. The first particle counted is in the rear of the bus on the right side, “x = 0” and “y = 0”. The count of particles is “1Count = (bx*xM)*(by*yM)”. (“bx > 0”, “by > 0”) “6sn” operates on “1Count = (bx*xM)*(by*yM)” to quantify the change in count relative to area. sn 6 *(1Count)

The “i” factor in “pzMsn*i” means the “pzMsn*i = kzMsn” label number translates to the “x / y” plane and not to the “z” direction. The result “6sn*(1Count)” is Lorentz Transformed.

The matrix operator is a space negative. Terms of the left side column vector, “(yrS + i*yiS)*(1Count) = (i*bx*by)*(i*sinh(αS/M))” and “(zrS + i*ziS)*(1Count) = (i*bx*by)*(cosh(αS/M))”, are in the invariant expression below. sn 6 *(1Count)

“pzSsn*(i*bx*by*cosh(αS/M))” of “6sn*(1Count)” states there are more particles for the same amount of x*y area if we use “xS” rather than “xM” for that x*y area, by a factor of “cosh(αS/M)”. Term “pySsn*(-bx*by*sinh(αS/M))” of “6sn*(1Count)” is a measure of per-length and per-time, because it is real and is not imaginary. Perlength is in the “y” direction, perpendicular to the direction of motion. Per-time is associated with the negative. The count as written on each particle decreases relative to a person standing on roadside “S”.

“kkziS” component is spacing of particle rows in the “x” direction, and “kkziS” includes a factor “by” for density along particle rows. “kkyrS” component is frequency of particle rows that pass a person standing on roadside “S” (and “kkyrS” includes a factor “by” for the density of particles along rows).

149 CHAPTER 3 – FIELDS A long rectangular prism array of particles sits on the floor of bus “M”. On each are three numbers: “x” (to the front of the bus), “y” (from right to left), and “z” (up). At the rear, right side and on the floor is the particle labelled “x = 0”, “y = 0” and “z = 0”. The count of particles is given by “1Count = (bx*xM)*(by*yM)*(bz*zM)”. (“bx > 0”, “by > 0”, and “bz > 0”) Per-volume differential operator “4sn” operates on particle count scalar “1Count = (bx*xM)*(by*yM)*(bz*zM)” to quantify the change in count relative to volume. sn 4 *(1Count)

Per-area is in the “y*z” direction, perpendicular to the direction of motion. Per-time is associated with the negative because the x-direction count as written on each particle decreases relative to a person standing on roadside “S”. The complementary invariant is current-density invariant “4” (rho). There is no space-negative on “4”. 4

“tS” is density. “xS” is flow per area in the “x” direction due to movement of bus “M” relative to roadside “S”. There was no spacenegative in the Lorentz Transformation matrix operator. 4

Electric Current Density Invariant. “Q” is electric charge per electron particle, “1Charge = Q*1Count”. “4J = Q*4” is found using per-volume operator “4sn” (for a homogeneous material): 4J

Inside a long rectangular prism on bus “M” is an array of lights that flash. Four numbers are printed onto each light. The first number is a count of flashes the light has had. The second number is a sequential number in the “x” direction, third in the “y” direction, fourth “z”. The initial light flash in the rear of the bus, on the right side and on the floor corresponds to “c*t = x = y = z = 0”. (“bt, bx, by, bz > 0”) “1Count = (bt*c*tM)*(bx*xM)*(by*yM)*(bz*zM)”. “1” operates on “1Count = (bt*c*tM)*(bx*xM)*(by*yM)*(bz*zM)” to quantify the change in count relative to world-volume. 1*(1Count) 4
= 1*(4/(ctM*xM*yM*zM))*(1Count) = 1*( /(c*tM*xM*yM*zM))*((bt*c*tM)*(bx*xM)*(by*yM)*(bz*zM)) = bt*bx*by*bz
“1*(1Count) = bt*bx*by*bz” is the density of counts per worldvolume. The same result “1*(1Count)” is observed by a person standing on roadside “S” because length contraction balances time dilation as “cosh(αS/M)/cosh(αS/M) = 1”. With respect to the roadside, lights do not all flash at the same time, but, rather, appear to move forward as a pulse faster than the speed-of-light. Per-world-volume density “1” is not complementary to, but rather, is equal to “1*(1Count) = bt*bx*by*bz”.

Chapter 4 – Waves The Dirac Equation is our relativistic model for dynamics of an electron. An electron is so small Newton’s Second Law (force equals mass times acceleration) does not apply. Newton’s Second Law was presented in Chapter 1 by writing its geometric-vector equation and then explaining force, mass, and acceleration. In contrast, the Dirac Equation is a set of four first order differential equations that needs to be developed slowly emphasizing a logical thought process.
4.1 Differential Operator Mechanical Energy-Momentum. An electron’s mechanical energy and momentum combine in the time-space momentum invariant “4p”. 4p
= exp(-*/2)*(EM/c + qx*pxM + qy*pyM + qz*pzM)*exp(-*/2)
“EM” is mechanical energy. “pxM”, “pyM”, and “pzM” are mechanical momentum components. “4p” is time-like because energy is modeled using “cosh” and momentum “sinh”. 4p
= exp(-*/2)*(mB*c*coshαM + q*mB*c*sinhαM)*exp(-*/2) = exp(-*/2)*mB*c*exp(q*αM)*exp(-*/2)
“αM” relates to electron speed by “vM = c*tanhαM”. Subscript “M” identifies the inertial reference frame of the observer. “B” is rest frame of the particle so that “mB” is rest mass. “c” is speed-of-light. “q” is made general through use of knowable circular-angles “”. q = qx*cos(x/yz) + (qy*cos(y/z) + qz*sin(y/z))*sin(x/yz)
q*q = 1
“1M” and “qM” are compound-label-numbers. “” is the unknown and unknowable unspecified simple-label-number. “” contrasts with “q” because “q” is knowable.
160 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY 1M = exp(-*)
; qM = exp(-*/2)*q*exp(-*/2)
qM = qxM*cos(x/yz) + (qyM*cos(y/z) + qzM*sin(y/z))*sin(x/yz) 4p
qM*j*qM = -1
= 1M*mB*c*coshαM + qM*mB*c*sinhαM
Electrical Energy-Momentum. The electrical energy-momentum invariant is “4q = QB*4V”. “QB” is electron electric charge. “4V” is external voltage. The analogy for energy component “QB*1V” is potential energy of a car at the top of a hill. To visualize electrical momentum component “QB*3V” think about what happens when a wire with direct current is cut. The magnetic field around the wire provides inertia to maintain the electric current, typically by ionizing air to make air conductive. Total Energy-Momentum. Per de Broglie relations, total energy is proportional to frequency “” (or “1k”) and total momentum is proportional to wavenumber “k” (or “3k”) with the constant of proportionality Planck’s constant “ħ” (h-bar) (“ħ = h/(2*)”). ħ = 1.054571800(13)*10-34 Joule*seconds
(angular momentum)
Total “ħ*4k” equals mechanical plus electrical. ħ*4k = 4p + QB*4V The next task is to associate an actual wave to the particle. Gradient Substitution for Frequency/Wave-Number. Total energymomentum invariant “ħ*4k” is replaced with a differential gradient operator. ħ*4k = i**ħ*4sn
and
ħ*4ksn = i**ħ*(4sn)sn = i**ħ*4
161 WAVES Replacement of frequency “4k” by gradient operator “i**4sn” is justified by use of an invariant wave function “1T” of the form below. Assume “” equals “+1”. 1T
= exp(i**(kxM*xM - M*tM))
-4k*j•4r = kxM*xM - M*tM (written for “kyM = kzM = 0”) -4k*jsn•4r = -kxM*xM - M*tM (written for “kyM = kzM = 0”) “4k = i**4sn” (and “4ksn = i**4”) 1M*M/c is replaced by i**1sn sn 3k is replaced by i**3
; 1Msn*M/c is replaced by i**1 sn ; 3k is replaced by i**3
Per the above equations, the space-negative alternative is redundant and so will be dropped along with “”. “i**1sn” is substituted for the total energy-momentum invariant. i**ħ*(4sn) = 4p + QB*4V = 1M*mB*c*coshαM + qM*mB*c*sinhαM + QB*(1V + 3V) i**ħ*(4sn) = i**ħ*(1) - i**ħ*(3) 1M*mB*c*coshαM = i**ħ*(1) - QB*1V qM*mB*c*sinhαM = -i**ħ*(3) - QB*3V To make the above two equations component equations, divide them left and right by “exp(-*/2)”. 1*mB*c*coshαM = i*ħ**tM - QB*VtM q*mB*c*sinhαM = qx*(-i*ħ**xM - QB*VxM) + qy*(-i*ħ**yM - QB*VyM) + qz*(-i*ħ**zM - QB*VzM) “4sn” requires wave function “1T” so that the above component equations apply to something that is both a particle and a wave.

Anti-Matter Visualized as the Space-Negative. Anti-matter was modeled with “αS/M = i*”. Here, anti-matter is suggested to be the spacenegative. The two models for anti-matter are independent, such that matter could be modeled with the space-negative.
4.2 Development of the Dirac Equation Algebraic Matrix Equation for mechanical components. 12 = exp(-q*αM)*exp(q*αM) 12 = (coshαM - q*sinhαM)*(coshαM + q*sinhαM) 12 = cosh2αM - q2*sinh2αM 12 - cosh2αM = -q2*sinh2αM -(12 - cosh2αM) = q2*sinh2αM “-(12 - cosh2αM) = q2*sinh2αM” becomes four equations. +: +: -: -:

“+” is redundant to “+”, and “-” to “-”. Address both “+” and “-” with a “” sign. The “” equation is split by introducing enabler functions “PPM” and “QQM”. ((1 + coshαM)*PPM)*((-1 + coshαM)*-QQM) = ((q*sinhαM)*-QQM)*((q*sinhαM)*PPM) ((-1 + coshαM)*-QQM) = ((q*sinhαM)*PPM) ((1 + coshαM)*PPM) = ((q*sinhαM)*-QQM) (1 + coshαM)*PPM + (q*sinhαM)*QQM = 0 (q*sinhαM)*PPM + (-1 + coshαM)*QQM = 0

“” sign in front of “q*sinhαM” (“q*sinhαM = q*sinh(αM)” and “coshαM = cosh(αM)”) relates to motion being right or left per “vM/c = tanhαM = tanh(αM)” because the “-” of “” refers to space-negative. “0”’s on the right make it a “singular” algebraic matrix equation. Algebraic Solutions to the Matrix Equation. In general, an algebraic 2x2 singular matrix equation has two independent solution pairs: pair “1” and pair “2”. Because of angle identities, there are three equivalent ways of writing the two pairs. cosh(αM/2) = cosh(αM - αM/2) = coshαM*cosh(αM/2) - sinhαM*sinh(αM/2) sinh(αM/2) = sinh(αM - αM/2) = sinhαM*cosh(αM/2) - coshαM*sinh(αM/2) (1 + coshαM)/sinhαM = sinhαM/(-1 + coshαM) = cosh(αM/2)/sinh(αM/2) ((PPM, QQM)1)not-half-anglesA = ((-q*sinhαM), 1 + coshαM) ((PPM, QQM)2)not-half-anglesA = (sinhαM, (-q)*(1 + coshαM)) ((PPM, QQM)1)not-half-anglesB = ((-q)*(-1 + coshαM), sinhαM) ((PPM, QQM)2)not-half-anglesB = (-1 + coshαM, (-q*sinhαM)) (PPM, QQM)1 = ((-q*sinh(αM/2)), cosh(αM/2)) (PPM, QQM)2 = (sinh(αM/2), (-q*cosh(αM/2))) “(-q)” is preferred to be a factor on “sinhαM”. But, as is obvious in the three forms above, this preference cannot be satisfied. “sinh(αM/2)” and “cosh(αM/2)” together form mechanical momentum per “sinhαM = 2*sinh(αM/2)*cosh(αM/2)” and mechanical energy per “coshαM = cosh2(αM/2) + sinh2(αM/2)”. A general solution for a singular algebraic matrix equation is a linear combination formed by multiplying an arbitrary constant, “f” or “g”, by each of the two solutions.

(PPM, QQM) = f*(PPM, QQM)1 + g*(PPM, QQM)2 = f*(PPM, QQM)1 g*(-q)*(PPM, QQM)1 = (f (-q)*g)*(PPM, QQM)1 The half angle is useful because a half in an exponent represents a square root operation. It implies a need for a square operation later in the analysis. The square operation, in the form of a complex number multiplied by its conjugate, is required for calculating a measurable particle property from a quantum mechanics wave function solution. Substitute Differential Operators into the Matrix Equation. First, multiply by rest mass “mB*c”. (mB*c + mB*c*coshαM) (q*mB*c*sinhαM)
(q*mB*c*sinhαM) PPM 0 * = (-mB*c + mB*c*coshαM) QQM 0

“1T = exp(i**(kxM*xM - M*tM))” had a handedness specified by “ = +1”. Opposite handedness is specified by “ = -1”. For completeness, “” has remained in the analysis until now, when it will be identified as irrelevant. A change in handedness (in this development of the Dirac Equation) is a change from matter to anti-matter (or from anti-matter to matter). To make that change: Change “” to “-”. Multiply all four components of the above 2x2 matrix by “-1”. Swap the sign of the electric charge so that “QB” is replaced by its negative “-QB” and swap the sign of the rest mass so that “mB” is replaced by “-mB”. Look at what remains. See it is the same as what was started with. The choice of “” was irrelevant and therefore “ = +1” is used.

The “Dirac Spinor” is the column-vector with four components “1M”, “2M”, “3M”, “4M”. These four component symbols are shorthand for more expanded symbols “z1M”, “z2M”, “z3M”, “z4M”. “z” identifies “qz” has non-zero major diagonal elements. “” identifies “N” is included. An algebraic 4x4 singular matrix equation has four independent solutions. The Dirac Equation is a differential 4x4 singular matrix equation with eight solutions: Four for matter and four for anti-matter.
4.3 Solutions to the Dirac Equation In general, finding solutions to the Dirac Equation is difficult. But finding solutions is easy for the specific case of motion in the positive “x” direction with no external voltage applied. For that case, the Dirac Equation is reduced to two simple pairs of equations of identical form. 1M + (iħ/mBc)*1M/ctM - N(iħ/mBc)*4M/xM = 0 -4M + (iħ/mBc)*4M/ctM - N(iħ/mBc)*1M/xM = 0 2M + (iħ/mBc)*2M/ctM - N(iħ/mBc)*3M/xM = 0 -3M + (iħ/mBc)*3M/ctM - N(iħ/mBc)*2M/xM = 0 The first pair has four Dirac Spinor solutions analogous, one for one, with the four electromagnetic spiral waves.
167 WAVES First Dirac Spinor Solution (for “z+1M-first” and “z+4M-first”) 1M-first = amp*cosh(αM/2)*exp(i*(NkxM-am*xM + M-am*tM)) 4M-first = amp*sinh(αM/2)*exp(i*(NkxM-am*xM + M-am*tM)) 4M-first = tanh(αM/2)*1M-first Second Dirac Spinor Solution (for “z+1M-second” and “z+4M-second”) 1M-second = -amp*sinh(αM/2)*exp(i*(NkxM-m*xM - M-m*tM)) 4M-second = amp*cosh(αM/2)*exp(i*(NkxM-m*xM - M-m*tM)) 4M-second = -coth(αM/2)*1M-second Third Dirac Spinor Solution (for “z+1M-third” and “z+4M-third”) 1M-third = amp*sinh(αM/2)*exp(-i*(NkxM-am*xM + M-am*tM)) 4M-third = amp*cosh(αM/2)*exp(-i*(NkxM-am*xM + M-am*tM)) 4M-third = coth(αM/2)*1M-third Fourth Dirac Spinor Solution (for “z+1M-fourth” and “z+4M-fourth”) 1M-fourth = amp*cosh(αM/2)*exp(-i*(NkxM-m*xM - M-m*tM)) 4M-fourth = -amp*sinh(αM/2)*exp(-i*(NkxM-m*xM - M-m*tM)) 4M-fourth = -tanh(αM/2)*1M-fourth (For engineering, “N” will be “+”. For theory development retain “N”, and do not place it as in the below alternative.) Alternative First Dirac Spinor Solution (do not use) 1M-first = amp*cosh(αM/2)*exp(i*(kxM-am*xM + M-am*tM)) 4M-first = Namp*sinh(αM/2)*exp(i*(kxM-am*xM + M-am*tM)) 4M-first = Ntanh(αM/2)*1M-first
Proof the First Solution is Correct. coshαM = ħ*M/(mB*c2) ;
sinhαM = ħ*kxM/(mB*c)
(for 4V = 0)
Substitute the first solution into the pair of differential equations. “amp” and “exp(i*(NkxM*xM + M*tM))” divide out.

Regardless of there being only one speed represented by “αM”, the concept of an interference group applies. Matter and Anti-matter. The plus “+” or the minus “-” sign (for “N” “+”) in front of “M” determines if the solution is anti-matter or is matter, respectively. “kxM-am” and “M-am” are for anti-matter. “kxM-m” and “M-m” are for matter. Anti-matter requires a space-negative in a Lorentz Transformation. The actual numerical value of “kxM” and “M” is not dependent on it being matter or anti-matter. kxM-am = kxM-m = kxM
;
M-am = M-m = M
Matter. Second and fourth solutions pertain to matter (for “N” “+”) with “mB > 0” and “QB < 0”. “kxM-m*xM - M-m*tM = -4k*j•4r” describes wave crests and nodes that move in the positive “xM” direction at phase speed “vpM”. Phase speed “vpM/c”, for the simple case of no voltage, is the reciprocal of the electron particle’s group speed “vM/c = tanhαM”. vpM-m = M/kxM = M-m/kxM-m = c*coshαM/sinhαM vpM-m/c = c/vM-m = cothαM (matter) Anti-Matter. First and third solutions (for “N” “+”) have “mB < 0” and “QB > 0” for an anti-matter electron (positron). “kxM-am*xM + M-am*tM = *jsn •4r” describes wave crests and nodes that move in the negative “xM” 4k direction at speed “vpM”. vpM-am/c = (M/c)/(-kxM) = (M-am/c)/(-kxM-am) = coshαM/-sinhαM = c/vM-am = -cothαM (anti-matter)
169 WAVES In the headlight/tail-light visualization both electrons and positrons have headlights pointing toward more positive “x” (right). And, electric current for both electrons and positrons is the same. Spin. The “+”/“-” sign in front of “i” determines if angular momentum spin is right-hand or left-hand. In the car visualization a right-side steering wheel represents right-hand spin. A positron with a left steering wheel is the anti-matter counterpart to an electron with a right steering wheel, and that pairs first with fourth and second with third. Glove Visualization for Both Anti-matter and Spin. Second/fourth solutions (matter) are visualized as a left/right glove pair with fingers pointing to positive “x”. Pull the gloves inside out, and now the gloves represent the first/third solutions (anti-matter) pointing to negative “x”. Second became first and fourth became third. Rotate these to point to positive “x” and place them inside the original gloves, first inside fourth and third inside second. Excess energy separates them with second/fourth moving to more positive “x” and third/first moving to more negative “x”, for equal and opposite linear momentum and angular momentum.
4.4 Particle Properties Because Dirac Spinor waves cannot be measured directly, the solution is post-processed to replace wave nature with particle nature, using the method proposed by Max Born for Schrödinger’s Equation solutions. Multiply the complex-conjugate of the Dirac Spinor solution wave function, “4*i”, by the Dirac Equation, and perform the opposite operation. Add the two and, alternatively, subtract the two. Subtraction drops the mathematically real terms. Addition drops imaginary terms. Subtraction Equation Resulting in Electric Current Density. The sum equals zero because of the zeros on the right side of the Dirac Equation. (“M” subscript is dropped to not clutter the equation.)

176 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Spinor directly, or by solving the Dirac Equation with its component variables specified in “S” rather than in “M”. “4J”, too, must be properly affected by the Lorentz Transformation. The fourth solution is the example because it is for matter. “1M-fourth” and “4M-fourth” are associated with compound-labelnumbers “e1M” and “e4M”, respectively, with “e1M = qx*e4M”. 1 0 e1 = qx*e4 =

Similarly, “QB < 0” makes the charge density time term negative. The conclusion is that the Lorentz Transformation was correct. Anti-Matter. For anti-matter there is an “-am” subscript. S-am/c

The car faces Dunkerque, France. In the same physical space at the instant of production a reverse-parity second car is also produced. This second car made of anti-matter also has steering wheel on the left and faces Dunkerque, France. Any energy in excess of the rest energy of the two cars is equally applied as kinetic energy that pushes the matter car toward Dunkerque and the anti-matter car toward Dover. The steering wheel on the left of both cars means both cars have a left-hand spin, for zero total angular momentum (per the analogy of a nut and bolt that unscrew and separate, retaining their spin), just as there needs to be zero total linear momentum. The anti-matter car has reverse-parity. To un-reverse the reverse-parity of the anti-matter car, flatten it front to back and go further to stretch it full length, so that the front points toward Dover, England, and see the steering wheel is on the right, as cars are in England. The right steering wheel means right-handed spin. Reverse parity has reverse spin. 6) 1M-second*i = -amp*sinh(αM/2)*exp(-i*(NkxM-m*xM - M-m*tM)) 4M-second*i = amp*cosh(αM/2)*exp(-i*(NkxM-m*xM - M-m*tM)) JtM = QB*(1M*i*1M + 2M*i*2M + 3M*i*3M + 4M*i*4M) = QB*amp2*(sinh2(αM/2) + cosh2(αM/2)) = QB*amp2*coshαM JxM = -QB*(1M*i*4M + 2M*i*3M + 3M*i*2M + 4M*i*1M) = -QB*amp2*(-2*cosh(αM/2)*sinh(αM/2)) = QB*amp2*sinhαM

186 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY 2) The equation that relates the current-density invariant to the Dirac Spinor invariant has components of the Dirac Spinor invariant multiplied by each other. The implication is that Dirac Spinor space is a square root of geometric space. If this implication is valid, then other four-component invariants of our geometric-vector space should also be able to be expressed as a form of a square of Dirac Spinor space. Try to quantify this thought by creating a more general theory that relates Dirac Spinor space to geometric space. 3) Geometry of Dirac Spinor Space. The mathematical existence of the four “” components of the Dirac Equation suggest there is a translation from numbers to geometry that creates a physically real “” space. We expect some sort of physical reality to “” space because the intention of theory-development-algebra is to mathematically model physics in all its intricate detail, and physics is real, a reality that we traditionally suppose is geometrically real. In this book we ignore the possible physical reality of “” space per the excuse of the Process from Descartes, in which we do not revert to the geometry of step 3 until prepared to take a measurement. This excuse supposes there is no geometry other than what we perceive because numbers are fundamental, not geometry. Forget the Process from Descartes and make a guess at what the geometry of “” Dirac Spinor Space is. How might the guess be verified by experiment? If there is a geometry applicable to Dirac Spinor “” space, then a translation to geometry is needed inside Dirac Spinor “” space. Think about this further after reading the next chapter in which electromagnetic field theory is combined into the Dirac Equation through the requirement that precision resolution is restricted to a finite value in geometry, any geometry, including Dirac spinor space.
187 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS
Chapter 5 – Proposed Theory The proposed Theory of Non-Finite Numbers replaces real numbers with “local-real numbers”. A set of local-real numbers is local to a finite maximum count of known or knowable place-value digits before and after the decimal point. •
Local-real numbers are derived from the new proposed
•
Real numbers are dropped after proving Cantor’s Continuum Hypothesis is incompatible with the proposed new axiom
•
Local-real numbers are applied using the Lorentz Transformation to create the proposed Theory of Special Relativity with NonFinite Numbers
•
Verified because electromagnetic force density (with energy and momentum density) derives from the Dirac Equation
reciprocal-of-zero axiom
5.1 Local-Real Numbers Finite. A finite number results from addition, subtraction, multiplication and division (not by zero) operations that can be counted. An irrational number is finite because it is bounded by rational numbers. Three Dots and Six Dots. Three dots “…” represents a finite count using natural numbers. Three dots does not apply to the quantity of zeros after the decimal point for an integer because there are more zeros than can be counted, and that’s because wherever a count ends one more can be added. Six dots “……” is a new symbol to represent the quantity of zeros after the decimal point for an integer. To create an integer, the number is written in place-value digit form, and then the number is cut at the
188 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY decimal point and all contributions after the decimal point are discarded. This process, called truncation, is a bulk process in which place-value digits are not addressed individually, and therefore there is no count. “……” represents a quantity larger than “…”. Three dots represents a finite count that is indefinite in its magnitude, what has traditionally been called the finite potential infinity, “L”. In contrast, six dots is given symbol “” (omega). L=1+1+1+…
;
= 1 + 1 + 1 + ……
Place-Value Digit Notation. A place-value digit notation number, for example “56.45” may be rewritten as a power series, “5*101 + 6*100 + 4*10-1 + 5*10-2”. In general …… + an*sn + … + a1*s1 + a0*s0 + a-1*s-1 + … + a-n*s-n + …… The outer two “……” represent a quantity that extends beyond what can be counted. It applies to the zeros after the decimal for an integer, and it applies to the non-pattern of an irrational number, for example, square-root-of-two, “2 = 1.414213562373……”. Starting at “m < n”, “am = 0” all the way up to “an”, and for “> n” the “a”’s are not specified or specifically addressed, same as “< -n”. Irrational Numbers. An irrational number is proven to not be rational. The example is “log23 = ln3/ln2 = 1.09861……/0.69314…… = 1.58496……”, as used in “21.5849625…… = 3”. Assume “log23 = p/q” with “p, q N”. log23 = p/q ; q*log23 = p ; log2(3^q) = p ; 2^log2(3^q) = 2^p ; 3^q = 2^p Odd number “3^q” cannot equal even number “2^p”. Therefore, “p, q N” is impossible, and “log23 = p/q” is not rational. “q*log23 = p” and “3^q = 2^p” are valid if “p = q = 0”: “0*log23 = 0” and “3^0 = 2^0 = 1” to suggest a relationship between irrational numbers “p/q = 0/0” and “log23”. The sequence of equations “log23 = p/q ; (1/p)*log23 = 1/q ; 3^(1/p) = 2^(1/q)” with “p = q = 0” gives “(1/0)*log23 = 1/0” and “3^(1/0) = 2^(1/0)”, to include irrational number “1/0” in that relationship.
189 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS Proposed Reciprocal-of-Zero Axiom. Division by zero is prohibited per the definition of rational numbers. In contrast, division by zero has a relationship to irrational numbers, and is needed. Because there is no division by zero in ZFC axiomatic set theory on which algebra is based, we introduce an axiom called the new proposed reciprocal-of-zero axiom. •
No operation that includes division by zero may possibly result in a non-zero finite number. Per the new axiom, we define properties for “1/0”:
•
.1. Selection of “0” in “1/0” being positive or else negative is unknown and unknowable
•
.2. “1/0” is so large it represents the never-ending feature of large number magnitude
•
.3. Permitted Operation: Addition of finite number “q” to “1/0”. 1/0 + q = 1/0 + (0*q)/0 = (1 + 0*q)/0 = 1/0
•
qQ
.4. Prohibited Operation: Addition of “1/0” to another “1/0”. Each “1/0” has an independent selection of being positive or negative. 1/0 + 1/0 = 1/0 - 1/0 ≠ a result
•
.5. Permitted Operation: Distributive property of multiplication over addition using “1/0” as the common factor but with the condition two “1/0”s on the right have dependent (same) positive or negative property. (1/0)*2 = (1/0 + 1/0) Both “0”’s have the same positive or negative (1/0)*(a + b) = (1/0)*a + (1/0)*b a, b Q a, b ≠ 0
•
.6. Permitted Operation: Distributive property for addition of zero. It requires “0/0” not equal “1/0”. (1/0)*(1 + 0) = (1/0) + (1/0)*0 = 1/0 + 0/0 = 1/0
qQ
190 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY •
.7. Permitted Operation: Multiplication of finite “q” to “1/0”. (1/0)*q = q/0 = 1/(0/q) = 1/0
•
q Q and q ≠ 0
.8. Prohibited Operation: Multiplication of zero “0” by “1/0”. (1/0)*0 = 0/0 ≠ a result
•
.9. Permitted Operation: Multiplication of “1/0” to another “1/0”. (1/0)*(1/0) = 1/0
•
.10. Permitted Operation: “1/0” base to “n” exponent. (1/0)^n = 1/0
•
nN
(n = 0 is Prohibited)
.11. Permitted Operation: Reciprocal of “1/0”. (1/0)^(-1) = 1/(1/0) = 0
•
.12. Permitted Operation: Base “n” to “1/0” exponent. The visualization is “n*n*n*n*……” with the count represented by “……” being “1/0”, in analogy to “1 + 1 + 1 + ……” being “1/0”. n^(1/0) = 1/0 or else 0 with the selection unknown and unknowable n^(-1/0) = 0 or else 1/0 with selection unknown and unknowable n N or n = e (“n = e” means “exp(x)” applies, not “e^x”.)
•
.13. Permitted Operation: Logarithm of zero. 1/0 = -logn(0) or else +logn(0) with the selection being unknown and unknowable n N or n = e
•
.14. Permitted Operation: Logarithm of an exponent. logn(n^1/0) = (1/0)*(logn(n)) = (1/0)*1 = 1/0 , n N or n = e
191 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS •
.15. Permitted Operation: Finite “n” cannot equal “1/0”. nN
0 < n < 1/0 and n ≠ 1/0 and 1/0 < -n < 0 •
.16. Prohibited Operation: Inequality of “1/0” to itself. “1/0 + q = 1/0 + (0*q)/0 = (1 + 0*q)/0 = 1/0”. Therefore,“1/0” cannot be greater than or less than “1/0”.
An algebra specifies a logical system that always gives the same calculated result. If a violation is found, then insert another prohibition to avoid it. +

Table 4. Crude algebra operations involving “1/0” (“Q Q”, “n N”).
Applying the Crude Algebra of “1/0” to “log23”. Use the power series of “log23” to evaluate “(1/0)*log23 = 1/0”. Per the six dots, the tail-end terms of the “……” are multiplied by “1/0” in one bulk operation to a sum result of “1/0”. Therefore, “(1/0)*log23 = 1/0”. There is no end to place-value digits of “log23” after the decimal point, and there is no end to the magnitude of “1/0”. Because “1/0” cannot be less than “1/0”, the two concepts counter each other so that “(1/0)*log23 = 1/0” is valid, such that
192 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY “1/0” on the right does not have a contribution of place-value digits after the decimal point. Also, per the new axiom, “3^(1/p) = 2^(1/q)” is valid for “1/p = 1/q = 1/0” but not for smaller values of “1/p” and “1/q”. Because six dots “……” has been used to represent the quantity of non-pattern place-value digits for an irrational number, the six dots represent “l/0”, “ = 1 + 1 + 1 + …… = 1/0”. Before we had the new proposed reciprocal-of-zero axiom, we had no formal means of stating in a constructive sense that an irrational number had no end to its nonrepeating pattern. Equations for proven irrational numbers, “q*log23 = p”, “q*2 = p”, “q* = p”, and “q*e = p”, are each satisfied only if “q” and “p” equal “l/0” and nothing less, except “0”. The association of “1/0” with irrational numbers per the six dots is theoretical because, in our geometric, physical world, we are only able to put measurement to finite quantities, per the three dots. Only a rational approximation can be realized. Base Two Representation of Numbers rather than base ten is preferred. •
Base two has only ones and zeros for place-value digits
•
The quantity of sets “P(a)” created from a quantity of possible members “a” in a set is found using a base of two, “P(a) = 2^a”
•
Base two has “1 + 20 + 21 + 22 = 23 = 8”
Truncated Numbers. A power series representation is divided into two portions. •
The first portion is a known or knowable rational number, called a truncated number, identified with three dots to a count of “Lmax N” place-value digits before and after the decimal point
•
The second portion, imprecision term “” (xi), is the unknown and unknowable portion split between what is larger and smaller than the rational number, as identified with six dots on both ends of the power series
193 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS Truncated Numbers “TN”: •
Written in base two. Positive or negative or zero. Specific to “Lmax” count of possibly non-zero place-value digits before and after the decimal point. “TN Q”
•
“1/(2^Lmax)” is the smallest. “2^Lmax” largest. “((2^Lmax)*(2^Lmax) + 1)*2 - 1”
Quantity is
For “Lmax = 0” truncated numbers are “-1”, “0”, and “1”. The eight (“2^Lmax = 8”) truncated numbers between zero (inclusive) and one (exclusive) for “Lmax = 3” are on the left. The nine “((2^Lmax)*(2^Lmax) + 1)*2 - 1 = 9” truncated numbers for “Lmax = 1” are on the right. 10.000000…… 0.1110000…… 1.100000…… 0.1100000…… 1.000000…… 0.1010000…… 0.100000…… 0.1000000…… 0.000000…… 0.0110000…… -0.100000…… 0.0100000…… -1.000000…… 0.0010000…… -1.100000…… 0.0000000…… -10.000000…… A rational number with a denominator not a power of two has a non-zero repeating pattern and is not in a set of truncated numbers. Local-Zero, “AminA0”, is the unknown and unknowable place-value digits smaller than a truncated number. •
Zeros before the decimal point. Zeros after the decimal point to a finite count of “Lmax” (in base two). “|AminA0| < 2^-Lmax”

194 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY “b” represents “box” (or “both”). We do not know if the box contains “0” or “1” until opened. A box is both “0” and “1” and is not “0” or “1” separately. “b” is the mathematical analogy for the box containing Schrödinger’s Cat. Until we open the box, we do not know if Schrödinger’s Cat is dead (1) or alive (0). Inside the box is a radioactive nucleus. If the nucleus decays, then the emitted particle breaks a container of poison and the cat dies. The decay both happened (state = “1”) and did not happen (state = “0”) until observed by the box being opened. That is the condition of each “b”. “b” is both one and zero, and “b” is neither-separately one nor zero until the place-value digit is observed, after which it becomes a one or else a zero. Each place-value digit symbol “b” is a separate box that is opened independently of any other box. (Notice the time dependency.) “AminA0 = 0.dddd……” is the result of “0.bbbbb……” subtracted from “0.bbbbb……”. Both are positive, therefore, difference “AminA0 = 0.bbbbb…… - 0.bbbbb……” can be either positive or negative, depending on the first non-zero value of “d” in the sequence. The subscript of “A” indicates it represents the concept of positive and negative, both and neither-separately. “minA0” has “min” to indicate it is smaller than truncated numbers (“|AminA0| < 2^-Lmax”). Local-Infinity. There is “0.25” chance a “d” will be “-1 (= 0 - 1)”, “0 (= 0 0)”, “0 (= 1 - 1)”, or “1 = (1 - 0)”. Therefore, “0.5 = 1/2” chance the first “d” will become zero “0” and “0.52 = 1/(22) = 0.25” chance, both it and the next “d” will become zero. The quantity of “d”’s has no end, for “1/(21/0)”, which equals either “0” or “1/0” using the proposed new reciprocal-ofzero axiom. “0” is the relevant solution. Because a local-zero cannot equal integer zero, a division reciprocal, called a local-infinity, “AmaxA = 1/AminA0”, exists. It is larger in magnitude than a truncated number (“|AmaxA| > 2^Lmax”). In the general power series given above, it is the six dots on the left.
195 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS Local-Real Numbers. A local-real number consists of a truncated number added to imprecision term “” (xi), which is either local-zero or else localinfinity. “C” is used because “A” pertains to “” being either “CmaxC” (“A” “+”) or else “CminC0” (“A” “-”). Continuum quantities in the geometrically real world are local-real numbers. = CmaxC or else CminC0 Two physically real quantities cannot be equal. A geometric continuum quantity, for example, length, subtracted from a geometrically independent version of itself, does not equal integer zero, and that means the four sides of a unit length square are not the ideal of integer one, but, rather, each have a local-zero adder for finite imprecision. And, a “2” diagonal is not perfectly “2” because it has a local-zero adder. The local-zeros added to each of two sides of a unit length square are proven to be different: There is a finite chance the first “d” placevalue digit will be the same between the two local-zeros, and that quantity squared both it and the next “d” will be the same, and zero chance all the “d”’s will be the same. A “1” followed by a “-1” has the same result as a “0” followed by a “1”, and that is accounted for. Continuum. There is an even chance a local-real number with placevalue digits “d” randomly selected to be “1”, “0”, “0”, or “-1” will become any (irrational) number. Because there is an even chance, the local-real numbers form a “continuum”. This is a different definition of “continuum” when compared to the continuum in Cantor’s theory of infinite sets for real numbers, but the concept is the same, and, therefore, the same word “continuum” is used. No Positive Actual Infinity. Local-real numbers have been defined without use of positive actual infinity. Positive actual infinity, as a count of place-value digits after the decimal point, was proposed by Cantor as required for real numbers. Therefore, local-real numbers are different from real numbers.
196 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY
5.2 Cantor’s Theory of Infinite Sets Cantor made the formal assumption that a positive infinity was the quantity of members in the set of natural numbers and a larger positive infinity was the quantity of members in the set of real numbers. The two infinities were forced to be actual infinities and not large finite number potential infinities because, per his Continuum Hypothesis, no set can have a quantity of members between the two infinities. Cantor proposed his theory of infinite sets late in the 1800’s, several years before 1905, when Einstein developed his theory of Special Relativity. Special Relativity, like every other mathematical model of physics, does not directly use Cantor’s two infinities. The disconnect between Cantor’s infinities and Special Relativity prompted the author’s search for a proper replacement in applied mathematics for positive actual infinity. Cantor’s infinity theory was critically important. •
It formed the foundation for evolving more theory on how numbers are constructed
•
It showed the importance of defining numbers using place-value digits as opposed to ratios (for rational numbers) or nebulously (for irrational numbers)
•
It used base two to an exponent, and that suggested a switch to base two place-value digit nomenclature
•
It placed positive actual infinity into a theory against which alternative theories of infinity could be contrasted
•
It generated plenty of literature so that several perspectives on the theory could be found by reading, rather than by inventing
•
It became an axiom in set theory, which suggested an alternative to Cantor’s Continuum Hypothesis would be an alternative axiom
•
It lacked an algebra by which to calculate with positive actual infinities
197 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS •
It was absent from mathematical models of physics and that meant it probably wasn’t real and highlighted that an improvement in the theory of infinity was needed and was possible
Cantor’s Theory of Infinite Sets – Countable Sets. Positive actual infinity “N0” (aleph null) is the quantity of members in “N”. N = {1, 2, 3, …, N0} Cantor counted integers to prove the set of integers “Z” has the same quantity “N0” as does the set of natural numbers “N”: “0” was first, “1” was second, “-1”, was third, “2” was fourth, “-2” was fifth, etc. The person reading the proof must extrapolate from a finite count to an actual infinity quantity. The word “countable” means members of the set can be identified one-to-one with the set of natural numbers. Examples of countable sets are integers, prime numbers, rational numbers (per Cantor’s diagonal proof), squares of natural numbers, even numbers, and products of two integers. The set of real numbers is not “countable”. Dedekind Cut. The Dedekind Cut was the precedent to Cantor’s theory of infinite sets. The Dedekind Cut is best described by Dedekind himself in a quote from Essays on the Theory of Numbers by Richard Dedekind, 1963 (originally 1901) by Dover Publications, Inc. Page 15: “From now on, therefore, to every definite cut there corresponds a definite rational or irrational number, and we regard two numbers as different or unequal always and only when they correspond to essentially different cuts.” If the cut is at a rational number, then the high side number is the rational number and the low side number is infinitely close, but just less. Alternatively, if the cut is at an irrational number, then both the high side and low side numbers are infinitely close to each other, and the irrational number is between them. Per the definition of the Dedekind Cut, we ignore the removed material of a saw cut, and we pretend the cut is a scissors cut (which does not remove material) by making the two numbers “essentially” the same number.
198 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY A true scissors cut would be an idealized cut because high and low numbers differ by integer zero. It appears Dedekind was attempting to make the cut non-idealized, as if the cut were physical in our geometric world where the number-line exists as an actual line. To visualize the Dedekind cut, use “Lmax = 3” for the count of base two place-value digits after the decimal point. A Dedekind Cut at half (“.100” in base two) has “.100” on the high side and “.100 - 2^-Lmax = .100 - .001 = .011” on the low side. To satisfy the word “essentially”, the difference “2^-Lmax” must be smaller than a rational number, and that requires “Lmax” to be a positive actual infinity, “N0”, for “2^- N0”. This contrasts with the idealized extreme case of “Lmax = 1/0” for which “2^-(1/0) = 0” and both numbers are “.100”. A Dedekind Cut at irrational number square-root-of-two “2 = 1.4142135……” has high/low number pairs at the cut (1.4, 1.5), (1.41, 1.42), (1.414, 1.415), (1.4142, 1.4143), etc., for the largest count number “Lmax” increasing through “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, etc., respectively. When “Lmax” reaches an actual infinity “N0”, then the high and low numbers and all numbers between them, including the irrational number squareroot-of-two, are essentially the same number, because the span between the low and high numbers is the positive infinitesimal “(10^-N0) > 0”. If sequential rational numbers “1/Lmax” and “1/(Lmax - 1)” differ by “1/(Lmax*(Lmax - 1))”, then a difference “2^(-Lmax)” of sequential real numbers is smaller, and more so if “2^(-Lmax)” becomes “2^-N0”. Uncountable Sets. “Cardinality” of a set is the quantity of members in the set. Cardinality is given operator notation of two “|” lines. A textbook for Cantor’s theory of infinite sets is Mathematical Proofs, A Transition to Advanced Mathematics, Second Edition by Chartrand, Polimeni, and Zhang, Pearson Addison Wesley, 2008, beginning on Page 221. From the top of Page 236: “Indeed, if A is any denumerable set, then |A| = N0. The set R of real numbers is also referred to as the continuum and its cardinality is denoted by c. Hence |R| = c and from what we have seen, N0 < c. It was the German mathematician Georg Cantor who helped to put the theory of sets on a firm foundation.” Cantor proved “N0 < c” using quantity “c” real numbers spanning zero (inclusive) to one (exclusive) and using quantity “N0” of place-value
199 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS digits after the decimal point. He created several different real numbers by writing random place-value digits after the decimal point. 0.5928609813… 0.5232… 0.7290165316… 0.3991… 0.7831994831… 0.8482401809… Cantor took the first place-value digit from the first number, second from the next, and so on, to form a new number. And he varied the process to create other new numbers. Because new numbers could be formed by this process, he concluded “N0 < c”. The person must extrapolate from finite to infinite. As a refinement to “N0 < c”, Cantor proposed “c = 2^N0”. To visualize “c = 2^N0”, substitute “Lmax = 3” for “N0”. The set of three members “{.1, .01, .001}” implies eight sets per “8 = 23”: {}, {.1}, {.01}, {.001}, {.1, .01}, {.1, .001}, {.01, .001}, {.1, .01, .001} There are “2 = 2^1” numbers “0.0” and “0.1” if we consider only the first place-value digit after the decimal point. “4 = 2^2” numbers “0.00”, “0.01”, “0.10” and “0.11” for the first two. “8 = 2^3” as given above for the first three. “2^Lmax” numbers for the first “Lmax”. This visualization requires base two, and that’s why base two is in “c = 2^N0”. “c = 2^N0” as a quantity of real numbers applies to the span from negative infinity “-N0” to positive infinity “N0”, in analogy to “N0” applying to any countable set. Properties of the two Actual Infinities. From Cantor’s proofs, we identify the following properties for “N0” and “c”. Finite numbers satisfy these properties. •
“N0” and “c” have no contribution after the decimal point, in analogy to natural numbers used in counting
•
“N0” and “c” are positive, also in analogy to natural numbers used in counting, and as required by “N0 < c” and “c = 2^N0”
•
“N0 < c” per Cantor’s proof, and “c = 2^N0”
200 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Perhaps these other properties also apply: •
“c” is an even number because “c = 2^N0”, by furthering the analogy of Cantor’s infinities with finite numbers
•
“0 < N0 < c < 1/0”, “N0 ≠ 1/0” and “c ≠ 1/0” if we accept the proposed new reciprocal-of-zero axiom
Attempt to place a “1” at the “N0”th position before the decimal point by writing an ever-increasing string of zeros to form “c = 2^N0”. Per this visualization, “c = 2^N0” cannot be negative and therefore cannot equal “1/0”. Analogously, “1/c = 2^-N0” cannot equal integer zero. Cantor’s Continuum Hypothesis. Included in Cantor’s theory of infinite sets is the conjecture that there is no set “S” for which N0 < |S| < c Inequality “N0 < |S| < c” states the quantity of members in a set may equal “N0”, as applies to countable sets, and may equal “c”, as applies to uncountable sets, but the quantity of members in a set cannot be “|S|” between “N0” and “c”. There cannot be a count up from “N0” toward “c” because any number in a count is the maximum number in the set of numbers from one to that number. There is no “N0 + 1”, “2*N0”, “c/2”, or “c - 1”. The Continuum Hypothesis (that “N0 < |S| < c” is impossible) cannot apply if “N0” and/or “c” are finite. Therefore, it is the Continuum Hypothesis that creates mathematically the property of positive actual infinity for “N0” and for “c”. And it is the Continuum Hypothesis that justifies multi-set-applicability of “N0” and of “c”. The Continuum Hypothesis is only a conjecture because it has not been proven. Attempts have been made. In the referenced textbook (middle of page 236) is a description of the attempts: “However, in 1931 the Austrian mathematician Kurt Gödel proved that it was impossible to disprove the Continuum Hypothesis from the axioms on which the theory of sets is based. In 1963 the American mathematician Paul Cohen took it one step further by showing that it was
201 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS also impossible to prove the Continuum Hypothesis from these axioms. Thus the Continuum Hypothesis is independent of the axioms of set theory.” An almost identical quote is given on Page 137 of THE
PHILOSOPHY OF SET THEORY, An Historical Introduction to Cantor’s Paradise, by Mary Tiles, from Dover Publications, Inc, 2004 (Originally
1989 from Basil Blackwell Ltd.). A very readable summary of the effect the Continuum Hypothesis has had on axiomatic set theory is given in the article “Dispute over Infinity Divides Mathematicians – To determine the nature of infinity, mathematicians face a choice between two new logical axioms. What they decide could help shape the future of mathematical truth” by Natalie Wolchover, Quanta Magazine, December 3, 2013. The “axioms of set theory” are listed in Mary Tiles’ book, Pages 121-123.
Axiom of extensionality Null set axiom Pair set axiom Sum set axiom Axiom of infinity
Axiom of foundation Subset axiom and replacement axiom Power set axiom Power Axiom of choice
Per page 125, the axiom of infinity identifies the unboundedness of natural numbers because one can always be added. Unboundedness pertains to the finite potential infinity (defined per Aristotle) and not to the completed (defined per Aristotle) or actual infinity “N0”. Rather, “N0” is created when the Continuum Hypothesis is used as an axiom, as is suggested as okay by the two proofs (by Gödel and by Cohen). The book and article emphasize that axiomatic set theory with the actual infinity forms “holes” that pure mathematicians attempt to close. Applying Binary Operations to an Actual Infinity. If calculation “c = 2^N0” is accepted, then, it follows “N0 = ln(c)/ln(2)” should be, too. But equations such as “N0*ln(2) + = 1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + … + 1/(c - 1)” require a violation of the Continuum Hypothesis and suggest any attempt at an algebra will fail. In the tables below, binary operations consistent with the Continuum Hypothesis are on the left, and binary operations consistent
202 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY with finite numbers are on the right. If, on the right-side tables, finite numbers “N0” and “c” (“C”) are both replaced by “1/0”, then the crude non-number algebra applies. + 0 Q N0 C

Table 5. Comparison of binary operations. Cantor’s Continuum Hypothesis is on the left. In contrast, actual infinities being finite are on the right (“Q Q”).
The table does not include inverse operations because “log2(N0)” (in analogy to “log2(c) = N0”) does not seem to have a result. Tables on the left for actual infinities are not sufficient for calculations. An algebra for actual infinities might exist, but we presently do not know rules of that algebra. Higher Order Actual Infinities. Cantor replaced “c” with “N1” (aleph one) because “N1 = 2^N0” suggests “N2 = 2^N1”, “N3 = 2^N2”, …. Is there an actual infinity subscript? Perhaps that question illustrates the holes.
203 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS Incompatibility of “N0” with Irrational Numbers. If “2^c” is even and “3^c” is odd, then “log23” is not in the set of real numbers. That result was expected because, in the discussion on the Dedekind cut, an irrational number resided inside a “2^-N0” interval, and the Dedekind cut appears to be the basis of Cantor’s “c = 2^N0” real numbers over an interval. Because an irrational number resides inside a “1/c” interval, “c*log23 ≠ c”, by which is stated a positive number “c” (without contribution after the decimal point) cannot be multiplied by “log23” to equal any other “c” (also without contribution after the decimal point), and that’s because the nonpattern for “log23” cannot end at a positive quantity “N0” of place-value digits (per the proposed new reciprocal-of-zero axiom by which “log23” has more place-value digits after the decimal point than “c” has before the decimal point). Because irrational numbers are removed from real numbers, infinities “N0” and “c” lose relevance and the Continuum Hypothesis does not apply. From another perspective: Because “N0” and “c” are positive, we can speculate “0*N0 = 0” and “0*c = 0”, and (as if they are finite) 1/0 + N0 = 1/0 + 0*N0/0 ; 1/0 + c = 1/0 + 0*c/0 = (1 + 0*N0)/0 = (1 + 0)/0 = 1/0 = (1 + 0*c)/0 = (1 + 0)/0 = 1/0 Replacing Real Numbers with Local-Real Numbers. In our geometric world of the number-line, there is no “1/0”, and so no irrational numbers, and, per the argument above, there is no positive actual infinity “N0”, and so no real numbers, either. What remains is the finite potential infinity “Lmax” and the proposed local-real numbers. But, to dispose of positive actual infinity “N0”, its mysteriousness had to be tamed by defining it using finite number properties, after which it was proven incompatible with a proposed new axiom. The properties and even the axiom could be over-simplified or otherwise in error, and so, it’s inappropriate to celebrate. Instead, we honor Cantor because his innovations provided necessary historical precedent. And, most humbling, we expect another new theory to come along soon because the proposed new axiom intentionally ignored identified complexity at infinity (see a “Further Thought” question) and did so per the excuse we only needed enough self-consistency for some fairly mundane applied mathematics on nearly hundred year old physics.
204 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Infinity in Mathematical Models of Physics. Finite imprecision of localreal numbers applies where a local-infinity replaces a division by zero singularity in a mathematical model of physics. Motion at the speed-oflight is a division-by-zero singularity in Special Relativity. But first we need to place the local-infinity into an algebra field, or, at least, have defined enough properties to use it.
5.3 Algebra Field for Local-Real Numbers Finished-Calculation and Final-Result. Local-real numbers with finite precision pertain to the geometric world of continuum quantities in which the problem to be solved is set up. The problem is then translated into all number algebra after which operations are not inhibited by finite precision. In preparation for a measurement, the result is translated back into geometry and restricted to finite precision. •
Finished-Calculation is at the end of the all-number second step in the Process from Descartes
•
Final-Result. Impose finite precision to find the geometric “finalresult” in the third step in the Process from Descartes
For example: “AminA0” times “AminA0” has “Lmax” zeros after the decimal point in each of the two factors and has “2*Lmax + 1” zeros in the positive product as the finished-calculation. Translation into a finalresult limits the finished-calculation to “Lmax” zeros and is written as another local-zero “CminC0”. Probability Functions. Swap “maximum” for “minimum” for “Lmax = 0”.

Assuming only a real number result, “2^(AmaxA)” is calculated by counting zeros as place-value digits left and right of the decimal point, in base two: “ > 2^Lmax” (lambda) for “A” “+”, and “1/ < 2^-Lmax” for “A” “-”, both outside truncated numbers. 2^(AmaxA) = *(1/2 + A1/2) + (1/)*(1/2 - A1/2) The final-result of “2^(AmaxA)” is truncated number zero added to imprecision term “” (xi). “” equals either local-infinity “CmaxC” or else local-zero “CminC0 = 1/CmaxC” depending on “A” being “+” or “A” “-”, respectively. A local-real number is a truncated number with “” added to it. Also: exp(AmaxA) = ()*(1/2 + A1/2) + (1/)*(1/2 - A1/2)

A hyperbolic-radius is also a truncated number to which “” is added. Both are included in “αS/M” using the “(1 - qx)” factor. αS/M = (1 - qx)* = (1 - qx)*CmaxC or else = (1 - qx)*CminC0

“c*tS xS” because “c*tS” and “xS” have the same finite truncated number portion “(c*tB)*exp(αM)/2” in the finished calculation, and that is because hyperbolic-radius “(c*tB)*exp(-calcC)” is small, effectively zero, and the other factor “exp(qx*calcC)” is large (infinite), to compensate. Roadside observer “S” measures time “c*tS” when an object of speed “vM” inside a bus passes location “xS”. For the First Case, the bus travels at speed-of-light, “vS/M-FirstCase = c” and per “c*tS (c*tB)*exp(αM)/2”, measured time “tS” increases proportionally to the advancement of time “tB” on the object. For example, if “αM = 0”, then “c*tS c*tB/2”. Observing an Object that Moves at the Speed-of-Light. c*tS (c*tB)*exp(αM)/2 ; = (c*tB)*(coshαM + sinhαM)/2 = (c*tM + xM)/2

212 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY If “xM” identifies the back of a baseball and “xM + xM” identifies the front of a baseball, then, because “(c*tM + xM)back” equals “(c*tM + xM)front”, front is earlier than back by “xM/c”. c*tS = xS = (c*tM + xM)back/2 = (c*tM + xM)front/2 c*tMfront = c*tMback - (xMfront - xMback) = c*tMback - xM All locations in “M” back to front along the baseball are at one location “xS” at one time “c*tS” because each location is at a different “tM” time, per length contraction. Time “tB” displayed on the clock mounted on the moving object (baseball) is not stopped when observed from “S”.

Two Locations at One Time. Two people stand on roadside “S”. A person at the speed limit sign observed the Second Case at the same time a person down the road observed the First Case. Per the proposed theory, the two observations are of the same particle because the photon is a projection of the electron. If we think in terms of geometric reality, our traditional notion is that one particle cannot be in two places. But, per this math, it’s true. The suggestion is that numbers alone are fundamental, and not geometric reality. Step three is not a reversion to fundamental physics, but is only preparation for a measurement. If “C” is negative “-”, then First Case (“ = CmaxC”) component magnitudes are infinite and compound-label-numbers are finite. There might not be theoretical significance to “C” “-” if “” is the exclusively positive finished-calculation “*(1/2 + A1/2) + (1/)*(1/2 - A1/2)” rather than “(CmaxC)*(1/2 + A1/2) + (CminC0)*(1/2 - A1/2)”.

Because the bus is moving, wave crest lines slope up and to the right and are spaced closer together by factor “cosh(αS/M)” (because of time dilation and “S/c = (B/c)*cosh(αS/M)”). People on the roadside each raise their hand when they hear the bang sound of the rods. The speed of the hands is faster than the speed-of-light. The bus speeds up to (nearly) the speed-of-light so that time dilation is nearly infinite. Hands raise only once and the motion of raising the hand moves at the speed-of-light.

Figure 37a. “2/c = 1S*(B/c)” is illustrated on the left. On the right, invariant “2/c = 1S*(B/c)*exp(qx*αS)” is illustrated, for “αS > 0”.
Figure 37b. “2/c = 1S*(B/c)*exp(qx*αS)” for “αS = +” is illustrated on the left. Right has “2/c = 1S*(B/c)*exp(qx*αS)” for the First Case “αS = (1 - qx)*”, “C” “+”.
For the First Case, frequency and wavenumber components are finite and equal, “S/c kS/c (B/c)/2”. Hands raise at the speed-of-light and do so repeatedly. S/c = (B/c)*exp(-calcC)*cosh(calcC) First Case “C” “+” = (B/c)*exp(-calcC)*(exp(calcC) + exp(-calcC))/2 = (B/c)*(1 + exp(-2*calcC))/2 (B/c)/2 People on the roadside also hear the Second Case, for which the bus is stationary. For the Second Case they all raise their hands simultaneously. Both the First Case and Second Case together are visible in the raising of hands.

For “αM = 0”: ES/c = (mB*c)*exp(-calcC)*cosh(calcC) First Case “C” “+” = (mB*c)*exp(-calcC)*(exp(calcC) + exp(-calcC))/2 = (mB*c)*(1 + exp(-2*calcC))/2 (mB*c)/2 pxS = (mB*c)*exp(-calcC)*sinh(calcC) First Case “C” “+” = (mB*c)*exp(-calcC)*(exp(calcC) - exp(-calcC))/2 = (mB*c)*(1 - exp(-2*calcC))/2 (mB*c)/2 For “αM 0” energy and momentum as observed from roadside “S” equal the mean average of energy and momentum as observed inside bus “M”. ES/c (mB*c)*exp(αM)/2 First Case “C” “+” = (EB/c)*exp(αM)/2 = ((EB/c)*cosh(αM) + (EB/c)*sinh(αM))/2 = (EM/c + pxM)/2 pxS (EM/c + pxM)/2

Photons have the property of energy equal to momentum. For the case of very low energy photons, “αM 2^Lmax”) from the hyperbolic-angle, for a product that is a finite finished-calculation result. Therefore, final-result components “S/c” and “kxS” in “4 = 1S*S/c + qxS*kxS” are finite, so that the photon’s precession frequency “S” observed through measurements is finite and is not zero (regardless of the hyperbolic-radius “B*(QB*/(mB*c)))” being so small it may be considered to be a zero). Precession frequency “S” is the frequency of the electromagnetic wave. Imagine a bar magnet with its magnetic field spiraling through space pointing radially outward to create the magnetic field component of a spiral electromagnetic wave. Per this proposed model, spin of a photon due to precessing motion has a factor of two compared to frequency of an electron. That appears to be why a photon has a spin (angular momentum) of one unit (of Planck’s constant) and an electron has a spin half of one unit. More mathematical rigor is needed, but the point is made that photon spin is not required to be zero (or a half) by the proposed Theory of Special Relativity with Non-Finite Numbers.

What does “N” represent? Answers to Select Exercises. 1) Per “p2 = 2*q2”, “p2” has factor “2” and “p” has factor “2”, and therefore “q2” has factor “2” and “q” has factor “2”. Our first observation is that both “p” and “q” must be even numbers. Our second observation is that at least one of “p” or “q” must be able to be odd, and that is because “p” and “q” are in a ratio such that they both can be divided by two until one of them is odd. The two observations are incompatible. Therefore, the original assumption “2 = p/q”, with “p” and “q” formed by starting with one and adding one repeatedly, is incorrect. Set “p = 1/0” and “q = 1/0” and apply the crude non-number algebra so that both observations are satisfied by “p” and “q” both being even and, because “1/0 = 1/0 + 1” one of them can be odd, too. 2) log1011 1.10010101110000000001101000111001…… 3) For “Lmax = 0” the count of truncated numbers is “((1)*(1) + 1)*2 - 1 = 3”, and truncated numbers are “1”, “0” and “-1”.

8) The Continuum Hypothesis requires no set have a quantity of members between the quantity of members in the set of natural numbers and the quantity of members in the set of real numbers. Any number is the quantity of members in a set for which it is the largest, and so to forbid those intermediate numbers from existing, the two identified quantities must not be finite, but, rather, actual infinity. And, the two quantities cannot be reciprocal-of-zero, per the crude algebra, because they are not equal and must be positive. For the set of real numbers to have a quantity base two to actual infinity, real numbers have an infinitesimal difference one to the next. Because real numbers are defined with a dependency on actual infinity, and because the property of actual infinity is derived from the Continuum Hypothesis, the Continuum Hypothesis forms the basis of the set of real numbers. 9) Write equations for “dPmin0(s)/ds” and “Pmin0”. dPmin0/ds = 0 dPmin0/ds = (s/(2^-Lmax) + 1)*2^Lmax dPmin0/ds = (1 - s/(2^-Lmax))*2^Lmax dPmin0/ds = 0 Pmin0 = 0 Pmin0 = (s/(2^-Lmax) + 1)2/2 Pmin0 = (2 - (1 - s/(2^-Lmax))2)/2 Pmin0 = 1

251 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS 11) “N” “+” models movement in positive “x”-direction. “N” “-” models movement in the negative “x”-direction. Because of “N”, “N” says both possibilities apply together, not one or the other. Further Thought. 1)
Attempt to prove “2” is included in Cantor’s real numbers by “c*2” equaling “c”. Is this a correct check? Must “c” be even and so cannot be odd? Mathematics is unambiguous deductive logic yet asking to prove “2” is in Cantor’s set of real numbers introduces subjectivity and wishy-washy ambiguity that fails independent verification. Do you agree?
2)
Prove two local-zeros cannot be the same by using a proof similar to the proof a local-zero cannot equal integer zero.
3)
Set “T” equal to the infinite “……” sum of reciprocal natural numbers and subtract “T/2” from it, twice to derive “ln(2) - ln(2) = 0”. The second “ln(2)” is a quantity “1/0” of “0”’s. How can the crude algebra be expanded to include theory for this second “ln(2)”? If we don’t do this, then we are ignoring what could be a necessary expansion of our mathematical tools.
4)
Einstein’s two theories of Relativity each include a division by zero, a singularity. What other mathematical models of physics include a division by zero? Can the proposed Theory of Non-Finite Numbers be applied to those mathematical models of physics?
5) Apply the proposed Theory of Non-Finite Numbers to the singularity at the center of a black hole. The General Theory of Relativity is written as “Rab - (R*gab)/2 + *gab = 8**G*Tab”. 6)
Unknown and unknowable place-value digits become known or knowable as time progresses, along with Entropy increase, cause and effect, and collapse of the wave function. Is “now” (and “here”) specific to a value of “Lmax”? How might the transition from unknowable to knowable with regard to numbers be related to the wave function collapse of quantum mechanics, and to Hugh
252 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Everett’s 1957 proposed “many worlds interpretation” of quantum mechanics in which all possibilities occur in a divergence of reality. How is “now” unique, or isn’t it, in a theory, yet? 7)
With regard to the above question, if “Lmax” increases with time, then how do we reconcile “Lmax” with anti-matter if time is in reverse for anti-matter ?
8)
How does the new proposed reciprocal-of-zero axiom pertain to the exotic Lorentz Transformation for motion faster than the speed-of-light with respect to division by zero for the speed?
9)
Using this chapter’s new theory for force density, can we find a theory by which energy and momentum “” for the electric field around an electron are derived through mathematics, rather than empirically derived through observations of experiments?
10) One value of “Lmax” applies, per the above models of quantum mechanics, when one particle observes another particle. Does each particle have a unique value of “Lmax” with respect to each other particle? Or, perhaps, does “Lmax” apply to a collection of particles, or to an inertial reference frame? 11) If a photon is one in the same particle as the electron that emitted it, then time-space is distorted by there being two locations for the one particle. And, the simultaneous validity of the First Case with the Second Case appears to create an equivalence between a set of label-numbers in “S” with singular-label-numbers in “M”. How is space structured? 12) Try to define properties so that “2^c” and “3^c” are equal, so that irrational number “log23” is a ratio of two versions of “c”. Retain “c < 2^c < 1/0” and no contribution after the decimal point. Try to define a positive actual infinity or two for which “log23” or “2” equals the ratio of that infinity or of those infinities. The important point is to make the mathematics unambiguous, and to not depend on mysterious, vague, and remote properties in your positive actual infinity.
253 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS 13) If the new proposed reciprocal-of-zero axiom is included in axiomatic set theory, then the Continuum Hypothesis must be rejected. Do you agree? 14) What is the definition of a real number per Descartes? What is the definition of a real number per Cantor? What is next? 15) Speed-of-light in Special Relativity is mathematically analogous to the event horizon of a non-rotating black hole in General Relativity. The analogy is more complete if the radius of the black hole is infinite, to create a flat space event horizon. Per the theory by Hawking / Bekenstein, temperature of a black hole’s surface decreases with radius of the black hole, so that a more complete analogy of an infinite radius has zero temperature at the event horizon. Per the evolving theory of loop gravity in which General Relativity is reconciled with quantum mechanics, as developed by Eugenio Bianchi for black holes, quantum fluctuations on the surface of the black hole decrease as radius is increased. Quantum fluctuations generate temperature. Might “Lmax” (or its rate of increase) be very large for cold nearly flat space and very small for the curved event horizon of a hot small radius black hole? To keep “Lmax” finite must there be curvature in the universe? What about the other extreme, for which the smallest black hole has a diameter of the event horizon on the scale of Matvei Bronstein’s Planck length, “LP = (ħ*G/c3)”? Was “Lmax = 0” held constant before the big bang? 16) Electrons are fermions of half spin that repel each other, per the Pauli Exclusion Principle, with the example of shells of an atom. Photons are as opposite as possible. Photons are bosons of full spin that have a tendency to coincide, as in a laser. Electrons are the material and photons are the force field. Because they are different to an extreme, combining electrons with photons into one mathematical model feels strange, feels incorrect, feels like it should be impossible. And, photons are generated by protons, and photons are created by pair annihilation / pair production. How can the proposed Theory of Special Relativity with Non-Finite Numbers be generalized to include protons and pair production? What are your thoughts?
254 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY 17) The theory of the Dirac Spinor matter-wave was developed from rest mass inertia which, per the classical radius model of the electron, results from the electromagnetic field. It’s not surprising the electromagnetic field is also a Dirac Spinor, per the new theory presented in this book, because the two phenomena are made of the same stuff, it seems. Where next to take this theory? 18) A proposed experiment is to simultaneously measure the photon particle and the electron particle that emitted it, to check for correlated properties, in analogy with the EPR experiment. How could such an experiment be set up? What would it measure? 19) In the book Reality is Not What It Seems – The Journey to Quantum Gravity by Carlo Rovelli, Riverhead Books, 2017 (2014 in Italian), Page 245/246, is the quote below. In the two points, positive actual infinity is removed from mathematical relevance, and the quantity of information from one particle observing another particle increases with time. How can the proposed Theory of Non-Finite Numbers fit into quantum mechanics per this quote? “In fact, the entire structure of quantum mechanics can be read and understood in terms of information, as follows. A physical system manifests itself only in interacting with another. The description of a physical system, then, is always given in relation to another physical system, the one with which it interacts. Any description of a system is therefore always a description of the information a system has about another system, that is to say, the correlation between the two systems. The mysteries of quantum mechanics become less dense if interpreted this way, as the description of the information that physical systems have about one another. The description of a system, in the end, is nothing other than a way of summarizing all the past interactions with it, and using them to predict the effect of future interactions. The entire formal structure of quantum mechanics can be in large measure expressed in two simple postulates: 1. The relevant information in any physical system is finite 2. You can always obtain new information on a physical system”
255 CHAPTER 5 - PROPOSED THEORY OF NON-FINITE NUMBERS 20) Anti-Matter Photon. Per the First Case Lorentz Transformation, observer “S” measures passage of time “tS” proportional to passage of time “tB” for a photon. Regardless of the passage of time, a photon has complete length contraction. Also, per experiments in which two photons annihilate each other, it appears a photon is its own anti-matter particle. How can a photon be its own anti-matter particle if the direction of its passage of time is dependent on the electron that emitted it being either matter or anti-matter? 21) The two zeros on the right side of the First Case Dirac Equation were replaced by non-zero value “a” to model electric charge. Try to find justification to create a theory for what electric charge really is. 22) As time progresses, a photon gets absorbed and disappears, so that the First Case disappears as the hyperbolic-angle becomes more precise (with more zeros before the decimal point) with respect to an observing particle. The photon disappears because the hyperbolic-angle is small relative to “2^Lmax” and stays small. A succession of electron and photon emission and absorption events occurs through an increase in “Lmax”. Try to make this theory quantitative to make it useful. 23) Step three in the Process from Descartes is a change from numbers to geometry in preparation to take a measurement. It is not a change to a more fundamental concept of reality. The suggestion is that numbers are fundamental to reality, and not objects like electrons and photons. What we perceive as our physical reality is the adjustment of numbers which become more accurate/precise relative to each other. That adjustment appears to follow the discovered Dirac Equation, and there’s likely much more complexity beyond that equation. The author (me) is biased to math (rather than physics). What do you think is fundamental, math or physics?

257 APPENDIX A - OCTONIONS AND SEDONIONS
Appendix A – Octonions and Sedonions Octonions were proposed by Caylay immediately after Hamilton proposed quaternions, in 1843. Quaternions anti-commute “jx*jy = -jy*jx = jz”. Likewise, octonions anti-commute. When Hamilton selected “jx*jy = jz”, he selected against equating “jx*jy” to “-jz”. For octonions, there is more than one selection required when setting up the multiplication scheme. One possible multiplication scheme for octonions is selected below. Each row is a “triple”. j1*j2 = j3 ; j2*j4 = j6 ; j3*j6 = j5 ; j4*j3 = j7 ; j5*j1 = j4 ; j6*j7 = j1 ; j7*j5 = j2

259 APPENDIX A - OCTONIONS AND SEDONIONS •
Inverse: Ratio of any two numbers is in the set of numbers
An inverse property example is “j1” divided by “j4”. First, substitute two factors for the numerator, then, second, apply the (anti-) commutative law (if needed) followed by the (anti-)associative law (if needed) to form a ratio of like numbers. The ratio of like numbers is then replaced with the number one. Each combination must equal “j1*-j4”. j1/j4 = (j2*j3)/j4 = (j2*(j7*j4))/j4 = -((j2*j7)*j4)/j4 = -(j2*j7)*(j4/j4) = -(j2*j7) = -j5 j1/j4 = (j4*j5)/j4 = -(j5*j4)/j4 = -j5*(j4/j4) = -j5 j1/j4 = (j6*j7)/j4 = (j6*(j4*j3))/j4 = -(j6*(j3*j4))/j4 = (j6*j3)*(j4/j4) = (j6*j3) = -(j3*j6) = -j5 Degradations. Each higher order of hypercomplexity includes a new break-down in symmetry through introduction of another negative. A break-down in symmetry is called (in this book) a “degradation”. The pattern of degradations only goes to the fourth order, if only because the degradation of the fourth order is too severe to go on. •

Because “j14s/j6s = -j14s/j6s”, it is said sedonion algebra is not a division algebra. (Alternatively, we may say sedonion algebra is not yet properly specified.) Matrix Isomorphs for Octonions.

Vector-front multiplication anti-commutes when compared to vector-aft multiplication. For example: In “j5*j3 = j6” use the left column of “j3” to result in the left column of “j6”. Now, reverse the order of the factors to “j3*j5”. Again, only use the left column of “j3”. Per the vectorfront multiplication operation, the result of “j3*j5” is negative of the left column of “j6”.

Rotation of a Seven-Dimensional Object. Seven-dimensional ultra-space modeled with octonions is organized as seven three-dimensional spaces so that there are three planes of rotation around each axis of rotation. Rotation around the “j1” axis has rotation in “j2”/ “j3”, “j4”/ “j5”, and “j6”/ “j7” planes. Rotation angles in each plane are “23”, “45”, and “67”, respectively. “23” begins at positive “j2” axis and is measured towards positive “j3” axis. (Rotations in 7-d space might be new with this book.)

267 APPENDIX A - OCTONIONS AND SEDONIONS Unlike octonions and quaternions, there is no rotation possible for complex numbers, because there is only one label number for complex numbers. General Model for Label-Numbers. •
Real numbers “N = 0” have the trivial 1x1 matrix isomorph.
•
Complex numbers “N = 1” have “2N = 21 = 2” label-numbers, “1” and “i”, and a 2x2 matrix isomorph.
•
Quaternions “N = 2” have “2N = 22 = 4” label-numbers and a 4x4 matrix isomorph. (1 + jx)*(1 + jy) = 1 + jx + jy + jx*jy = 1 + jx + jy + jz
•
= (1 + jy)*(1 + jz) = (1 + jz)*(1 + jx)
Octonions “N = 3” have “2N = 23 = 8” label-numbers and an 8x8 matrix isomorph. (1 + j1 + j5 + j6)*(1 + j2) = 1 + j1 + j2 + j3 + j4 + j5 + j6 + j7 (1 + j2 + j4 + j5)*(1 + j3) = 1 + j1 + j2 + j3 + j4 + j5 + j6 + j7 There are twenty-one restructures of the two octonion equations above, one restructure for each number in the 7x3 twenty-one number table.
•
Sedonions “N = 4” have sixteen label-numbers. The multiplication table for sedonions is not yet finalized.
Vector-Space. Vector space is so far useful in applied mathematics to “N = 2”. A more complex notion of vector space may be needed for “N = 3” and higher orders. •
“N = 1” introduced complex label-number “i”. Subtract away the real number so the quantity of label-numbers in an “N = 1” vectorspace is “2N - 1 = 1”.
268 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY •
Four-dimensional time-space of Special Relativity was created by combining “N = 1” with “N = 2” to form the “N = 2” vector-space: “(21 - 1) + (22 - 1) = 1 + 3 = 4” terms. An example number is “658*i + 89*jx + 57*jy + 456*jz”.
•
The natural extension to octonions is eleven-dimensional vectorspace: “11 = 1 + 3 + 7 = (21 - 1) + (22 - 1) + (23 - 1)”. The seven dimensions of ultra-space are as different from space as space is from time. The example number is “658*i + 89*jx + 57*jy + 456*jz + 26*j1 + 44*j2 + 785*j3 + 963*j4 + 76*j5 + 659*j6 + 154*j7”.
•
“N = 4” creates a twenty-six-dimensional vector-space “26 = 1 + 3 + 7 + 15”.
•
After that is “N = 5” for “57 = 1 + 3 + 7 + 15 + 31”, for a fifty-sevendimensional vector-space, and so on.
Sedonions. A simple attempt at sedonion algebra applies the same matrix multiplication operation applied to octonion algebra. The octonion-conjugate operation “*jo” requires the negative of the octonions, “j1*jo = -j1”, …, “j7*jo = -j7”, and requires reverse order of factors. a

The octonion/sedonion table above shows multiplication of “j1*j2 = j3” internal to sedonion 2x2 matrices is analogous to “jx*jy = jz” internal to octonion 2x2 matrices. Also “j2*j4 = j6”, “j5*j1 = j4”, and “j6*j7 = j1” are analogous to “jx*jy = jz” because numbers increase in value: 1-2-3, 2-46, 1-4-5, and 1-6-7. The other three triples are not: 7-4-3, 6-5-4, and 7-5-2, because numbers decrease in value. Each of seven triples pertains to a plane perpendicular to the “1” axis. Each plane is associated with four triples.

Based on that example, left hand angle equations apply: “1213s + 1011s + 67s = 0”, “1415s + 89s + 67s = 0”, and “1415s + 1011s + 45s = 0”, such that there should not be negative.

273 APPENDIX A - OCTONIONS AND SEDONIONS Anti-inverse degradation of the above sedonion algebra may be experienced algebraically by attempting to create a 15x7 table for sedonion 7-spaces analogous to the 7x3 table for octonion 3-spaces. A 15x7 table for sedonions would divide fifteen-dimensional space into fifteen different seven-dimensional spaces. The lack of a division algebra for this simple attempt at sedonion algebra is proven in the Hurwitz Theorem. See the last two “Thought Exercises” questions for the beginning of other attempts for 2x2 matrix formulation of sedonion algebra. Thought Exercises 1)
Write a 2x2 matrix isomorph for octonion “a + b*j1 + c*j2 + d*j3 + e*j4 + f*j5 + g*j6 + h*j7”.
2)
Write a matrix multiplication table for octonions “j1”, “j2”, “j3”, “j4”, “j5”, “j6”, “j7” and complex number factor “i”. Use “q1”, “q2”, “q3”, “q4”, “q5”, “q6”, “q7” with “q1 = j1/i”, etc. Address negatives with a note.
3)
Write the 2x2 matrix isomorph of the octonion-complex number “a + b*q1 + c*q2 + d*q3 + e*q4 + f*q5 + g*q6 + h*q7” in which components “a”, “b”, “c”, “d”, “e”, “f”, “g”, and “h” are mathematically complex.
4)
In Chapter 1 is a section titled “Quaternion-ComplexHypercomplex Numbers”. Follow the format of that section for octonions and octonions-complex. Why can’t octonionsquaternions or sedonions be placed into that format?
5)
“j1”, “j2”, “j3”, “j4”, “j5”, “j6”, “j7” were each assigned a 2x2 matrix isomorph, per the text above. Find all alternative 2x2 matrix isomorphs to “j1”, “j2”, “j3”, “j4”, “j5”, “j6”, “j7” holding to the criteria that the same 7x3 table of triples applies? Are there other tables?
6)
There is no algebra by which to find real number magnitude of “658*i + 89*jx + 57*jy + 456*jz + 26*j1 + 44*j2 + 785*j3 + 963*j4 + 76*j5 + 659*j6 + 154*j7” because quaternion-octonion products
274 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY have no specified algebra. This issue will likely get resolved through an application in applied mathematics. Find that application. 7)
Find octonion 2x2x2 matrix isomorphs that use complex labelnumbers “1” and “i” for terms/elements. The major diagonal of a 2x2x2 matrix would likely be elements “(ar + i*ai)” and “(ar + i*ai)*i”, in analogy to the 2x2 matrix isomorphs for quaternions. The three minor diagonals would likely each be analogous to the one minor diagonal of the 2x2 matrix isomorphs for quaternions. The challenge is to develop a 2x2x2 matrix multiplication scheme for which the 7x3 table of triples for octonion multiplication is satisfied. (ar + i*ai) (br + i*bi) (cr + i*ci)
(dr + i*di) -(cr + i*ci)*i -(dr + i*di)*i -(br + i*bi)*i (ar + i*ai)*i
1: ar = 1 ; j2: cr = 1 ; j4: ai = 1 ; j6: ci = 1 j1: br = 1 ; j3: dr = 1 ; j5: bi = 1 ; j7: di = 1 8)
Try to find a 2x2x2x2 matrix structure for sedonions. Four corners are adjacent to each of the two corners of the major diagonal. And six corners are not adjacent to the two corners.
9)
Propose an expansion of the Dirac Equation that uses octonion matrix isomorphs in addition to, or as a substitute for, quaternion 2x2 matrix isomorphs. A clue in the text was justification for “e4*qx = -qx*e4”. Another clue is that quaternions are inside matrix isomorphs of octonions.
10) The 7x3 table for octonions implies the first column is an “x” dimension, the second “y”, and the third “z”. But that implication is not used in the algebra. It suggests the algebra is incomplete. 11) Using triples “j13s = j3s*j14s”, “j5s = j3s*j6s”, “j13s = j8s*j5s” and “j6s = j14s*j8s”, the violation of the anti-associative property that led to the anti-inverse property is:
275 APPENDIX A - OCTONIONS AND SEDONIONS j14s = -(j3s)*j13s = -(j6s*j5s)*j13s j14s = -j6s*(j8s) = -j6s*(j5s*j13s) = +(j6s*j5s)*j13s Can matrix multiplication be modified to remove the antiassociative violation? See the matrix multiplication operation below, in which new groupings apply (for example, “F(CI)” rather than “(FC)I”). The new groupings would affect octonions and not quaternions, and the operations become trinary and not binary. A C ((
E G )*(
B D
I K
))*( F H
(AE+FC)I+J(GA+CH) K(AE+FC)+(GA+CH)L )= J L I(EB+DF)+(BH+HD)J (EB+DF)K+L(BG+HD)
(AE)I+(FC)I+J(GA)+J(CH) K(AE)+K(FC)+(GA)L+(CH)L = I(EB)+I(DF)+(BH)J+(HD)J (EB)K+(DF)K+L(BG)+L(HD)
12) Can sedonion algebra be redesigned to require an octonion rotation in 7-dimensional space when there is a sedonion rotation in 15-dimensional space, such that the octonions inside the matrix isomorphs for sedonions change to make the sedonions change, too? Like the above attempt to make sedonion algebra work, it changes matrix isomorphs, and so is more than simple sedonion label-number manipulations, and that means the restrictive Hurwitz theorem does not apply.
276 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY
277 APPENDIX B - SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE
Appendix B – Spooky Action at a Distance EPR Experiment Set Up. Two photons created as a pair have coordinated properties and are called “entangled”. The two entangled photons travel a macroscopic distance, perhaps a meter or further in opposite directions, and are each detected. Each detector is comprised of a polarizing film followed by a photographic film. The two polarizing films are parallel and both photographic films detect the photons, to show us polarity of the photons was the same, as expected, because they are entangled. To explain this expected experiment result, we might venture to guess polarity of the two photons was determined at the time of creation at the emission source that sits between the two detectors. Other phases of the EPR experiment have the polarizing films at a different angles. Results are interpreted using Bell’s Inequality (from year 1964) and lead to the conclusion polarization of the two entangled photons is determined at the moment of detection, not emission. For that to happen, the direction of polarization is coordinated over the macroscopic distance that separates the two detectors and coordinated instantly over that macroscopic distance: Not at the speed-of-light but faster, instantly. Einstein called the instant communication “spooky action at a distance”.
Figure 44. EPR Experiment for photons.
278 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY The EPR experiment may also be performed with electrons. Electrons do not have polarization, but, rather, electrons have spin. Axis of spin (using the right-hand rule) is measured as a direction perpendicular to the plane of rotation. Two entangled electrons have the axis of spin of one electron anti-parallel with respect to the other electron, as required for a total of zero angular momentum for the pair.
Figure 45. EPR Experiment for electrons.
For a visualization, substitute baseballs for electrons. Two baseballs were resting beside each other. A little expanding spring sent the baseballs in opposite directions. The little expanding spring was not perfectly aligned between the two centers, and, therefore, created baseball spin. The axis of spin must be equal and opposite, so that the angular momentum of both baseballs together equals zero. We watched the release of the expanding spring. We saw the spin of the two baseballs as they moved in opposite directions. We watched the two baseballs each pass their spin direction detector. The spin detector display confirmed what we had been seeing. A baseball is a particle, always a particle. A baseball is a particle before its spin is detected, and the baseball is a particle when its spin is detected. Electrons are different from baseballs because electrons have particle/wave duality. An electron is a wave until it is detected as a particle. Unlike particles, waves do not have spin. Therefore, waves do not have an axis for spin. Per particle/wave duality of quantum mechanics, axis for spin of an electron can only become specified when the electron transitions from being an unobserved wave into being an observed particle, a transition that occurs at the detector. Photons, too, have particle/wave duality. Polarization of a photon is a property of the particle. For visualization, imagine the wave of a
279 APPENDIX B - SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE single photon approaching a polarizing film. Polarizing film is comprised of long stretched molecules that have thin gaps between molecules. The photon’s electric field can only pass those long stretched molecules if the electric field is exactly parallel to the gaps. In contrast, if the electric field is exactly perpendicular to the gaps, then stretched molecules absorb the photon by vibrating back and forth (like a guitar string) due to energy gained by absorbing the photon’s electric field energy. This vibration energy is the energy of the photon, now fully absorbed. And then, the vibration energy is lost to heat. On the back side of the polarizing film is a photographic film detector with an electron that absorbs the photon with a jiggle vibration, if the photon passed the polarizing film to reach it. The jiggle of the electron causes an exposure spot on photographic film. The polarizing film forces the single nondivisible photon to be completely polarized with gaps (such that it passes) or completely polarized perpendicular to gaps (such that it is absorbed). The photon, as a particle, cannot be a combination of perpendicular and parallel, because the photon is quantized as an all-or-nothing particle. Half the photons pass the polarizing film, and half are absorbed. An electron, when used in the EPR experiment, likewise, is a single particle at the detector. Electron spin sensed by the detector forces the spin to become parallel or else anti-parallel to the detector device (analogous to the photon electric field being forced to be parallel or else perpendicular to the polarizing film of the detector device) with no intermediate spin direction possible. Lack of the particle property of polarization for photons and lack of the particle property of spin direction for electrons, up until the moment of detection, was a debated issue, until the EPR experiment with Bell’s Inequality settled the debate. Bell’s Inequality is explained with an example. Consider a set of bikes in a large garage. Each bike has (A) an engine or not, has (B) five pounds of fuel or not, and has (C) blue paint or not. Notice that correlated properties may be included. For example, it doesn’t matter that a bike without an engine would naturally not have fuel. Three properties “A”, “B”, and “C” each have values of “Yes” or “No”, for eight combination possibilities (because 8 = 23). Each quantity (QTY) is found by counting.
280 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY QTY1(YYY), QTY2(NYY), QTY3(YNY), QTY4(YYN) QTY5(YNN), QTY6(NYN), QTY7(NNY), QTY8(NNN) (YYN) means A=Yes, B=Yes, and C=No, and (NYN) means A=No, B=Yes, and C=No. If a letter A, B, or C is in the parentheses, then that property can be either Yes or No. For example, QTY(AYY) has A=Yes or No, B=Yes, and C=Yes. If there are ten objects, then the eight quantities listed above sum (as QTY(ABC)) to ten. As an example, consider this set of ten objects: (YNN), (YYN), (YNN), (NYN), (NNN), (YYY), (YNN), (NYN), (YYN), (NNY) QTY1(YYY)=1 QTY3(YNY)=0
QTY5(YNN)=3 QTY7(NNY)=1
QTY2(NYY)=0 QTY4(YYN)=2
QTY6(NYN)=2 QTY8(NNN)=1
Bell’s Inequality is QTY(YNC) + QTY(AYN) QTY(YBN) In words: The quantity of objects with A=Yes and B=No plus the quantity of objects with B=Yes and C=No is greater than or equal to the quantity of objects with A=Yes and C=No. The first term QTY(YNC) has no consideration as to the state of “C”. It can be expanded, as can the other two terms: QTY(YNC) = QTY3(YNY) + QTY5(YNN) QTY(AYN) = QTY4(YYN) + QTY6(NYN) QTY(YBN) = QTY4(YYN) + QTY5(YNN) QTY(YNC) + QTY(AYN) QTY(YBN) QTY3(YNY) + QTY5(YNN) + QTY4(YYN) + QTY6(NYN) QTY4(YYN) + QTY5(YNN) QTY3(YNY) + QTY6(NYN) 0
281 APPENDIX B - SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE The last statement is true because all quantities, including QTY3(YNY) and QTY6(NYN), are greater than or equal to zero. Therefore, Bell’s Inequality is proven. Using the ten objects of our example: QTY(YNC) = (0+3) = 3 QTY(AYN) = (2+2) = 4 QTY(YBN) = (2+3) = 5 Because 3 + 4 = 7 5, Bell’s Inequality is satisfied. In words per the example: The number of bikes with an engine and less that five pounds of fuel plus the number of bikes with more than five pounds of fuel and no blue paint is greater than or equal to the number of bikes with an engine and no blue paint. In words the inequality is not obvious or intuitive. That is why we need the math. The important point about Bell’s Inequality is that it must be satisfied if the objects have properties. If Bell’s Inequality is not satisfied, then the objects do not have properties. Predicting How Bell’s Inequality Applies to a Baseball. In the plane perpendicular to direction of motion is the center point of the baseball and through that center point is a line for the projection of the axis of rotation onto the plane. Use the right-hand rule so that the axis of rotation projected onto this plane has an arrowhead designating the direction of the thumb. From the center point of the baseball, draw the “x”-axis and, at ninety degrees, the “y”-axis on the plane. Angle “” from the “x”-axis to the arrowhead is always known for the baseball because, for a baseball, the direction of the axis of rotation exists even when we are not detecting it.

Figure 48. EPR experiment results with baseballs and not with electrons.
“A” is “Yes” if axis of rotation is in the hemisphere of “+y”, 0 < 180o, and “No” corresponds to 180o < 360o. “B” is “Yes” if axis of rotation is in the hemisphere with both “+x” and “+y”, -45o < 135o, and “No” corresponds to 135o < 315o. “C” is “Yes” for “+x”, -90o < 90o, and “No” for 90o < 270o. Each baseball pair is given “Yes” or “No” for each of A, B, and C. Baseballs that satisfy A=Yes and B=No have 135o < 180o (one eighth of a circle). Baseballs that satisfy B=Yes and C=No have 90o
283 APPENDIX B - SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE < 135o (one eighth of a circle). Baseballs that satisfy A=Yes and C=No have 90o < 180o (one quarter of a circle). One eighth plus one eighth equals one quarter, and therefore Bell’s Inequality is satisfied. We do the experiment (hypothetically) three times. The first set of 1,000,000 has 125,032 A=Yes with B=No. The second set of 1,000,000 has 124,992 B=Yes with C=No. The third set of 1,000,000 has 250,005 A=Yes with C=No. QTY(YNC) + QTY(AYN) QTY(YBN) 125,032 + 124,992 = 250,024 250,005 Bell’s Inequality was satisfied. Because the three numbers were from three different experiment events, there was a chance a statistically explainable variation could have made “QTY(YNC) + QTY(AYN)” slightly less than “QTY(YBN)”. That possibility alerts us to the need to have a very large number of runs in the experiment. Predicting How Bell’s Inequality Does Not Apply to an Electron. The right detector (which is the first to make a detection) reads if the axis of rotation of the electron is parallel with the “+y”-axis. The left detector has the same reading as the right detector (after compensating for the expected axis of rotation to be anti-parallel).
Figure 49. Both detectors set to “A”. Electrons are detected 50% for “A” equal to “Yes” in both.
Now, in the second phase of the experiment, the left detector (second detector) is rotated so that it reads if the axis of rotation is parallel (or else anti-parallel) with “+x”-axis. This reading is instantaneously after the right detector (“+y”-axis) reading. The word “instantaneous” means a signal at the speed-of-light would not have time to reach the second detector.
284 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Per quantum mechanics, the event of reading “A” (if the axis of rotation is in the “+y” direction) forces the electron’s axis of rotation to be exactly in the “+y” direction, or else in the “-y” direction, and nothing else. The second detection for reading “C” (on the left, an instant later) forces the rotation axis of the entangled electron to now move parallel or else anti-parallel to “+x”-axis. “+x”-axis is perpendicular to both “+y”axis and “-y”-axis. Therefore, half the detections for the second detection (on left) read “+x”-axis and half the detections read “-x”-axis.
Figure 50. Left detector set to “C”. Electrons are detected 50% for “C” equal to “Yes”. QTY(YBY) equals one quarter of the total.
Now, as a third phase in the experiment, have the first (right) detector aligned with “+y”-axis, and have the second (left) detector aligned with “-y”-axis. In this case, the left detector reads a “No” for each “Yes” on the right detector. This is an extreme case for which angle “” (phi) equals zero. The general rule is that the second (left) detector has probability “sin2(/2)” of a detection with “” measured from the (opposite) direction of the previous measurement of the entangled pair of electrons. If the two detectors are parallel (the first phase), then “=180o” so that “sin2(/2) = sin2(180o/2) = sin2(90o) = 12 = 1”. If the two detectors are antiparallel (the third phase), then “=0o” so that “sin2(/2) = sin2(0o/2) = 0”. And, if the two detectors are perpendicular (the second phase), then “=90o” so that “sin2(/2) = sin2(90o/2) = sin2(45o) = (1/2)2 = 1/2”. The last two phases of the experiment have “=45o” (so that “sin2(/2) = sin2(45o/2) = sin2(22.5o) = .38268…2 = 0.146447…”) and “=135o” (so that sin2(/2) = sin2(135o/2) = sin2(67.5o) = .92388…2 = 0.85355…”). All particles are accounted for between what is counted as inconformance and not-in-conformance, per “cos2(/2) + sin2(/2) = 1”.
285 APPENDIX B - SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE The EPR Experiment with Electrons. Do the experiment (hypothetically) with pairs of electrons. There are three experimental set ups.
Figure 51. EPR Experiment with electrons. Bell’s Inequality is not satisfied because 7% + 7% ≱ 25%.
“73,111” events in “1,000,000” have A=Yes with B=No. The number “73,111” conforms to “1,000,000*0.5*sin2(45o/2)”. The “0.5” factor applies to A=Yes and the factor “sin2(45o/2) = 0.146447…” applies to the subsequent detection for B=No. After that, “73,056” events have B=Yes with C=No. And then, “249,986” events have A=Yes with C=No. We do a statistical evaluation to explain away minor error in the numbers and conclude Bell’s inequality is not satisfied because: QTY(YNC) + QTY(AYN) ≱ QTY (YBN) for electrons 73,111 + 73,056 = 146,167 ≱ 249,986 In the laboratory, Bell’s inequality was not satisfied using photons, electrons, protons, or any other subatomic particles.
286 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY Properties Determined at Instant of Detection. We expected Bell’s inequality to be unsatisfied because of the “sin2(/2)” rule, which was derived from the requirement that spin of an electron becomes parallel or else anti-parallel with the axis of measurement (which makes an electron different from a baseball). Because Bell’s Inequality is unsatisfied, we conclude there are no hidden variables or other memory mechanisms by which direction of spin of an electron was determined when emitted and simply carried as information to the detectors. It means direction of spin is determined at the moment of detection. A typical emission is one particle, not two entangled particles as in the EPR experiment. When this one particle is detected, perhaps by your eye, or perhaps by a scientific device that we were monitoring, we are unsure if that particle traversed the distance from its emission time and place to the detection time and place as a particle with distinct particle properties (for example, a spin axis direction), or not. When the particle travels it is a wave, and a wave should not be a carrier of particle properties, but subatomic particles are a bit mysterious. Before we had EPR experiment results, it was thought perhaps waves did carry particle properties. And that is because, when detecting one particle, we did not have a means to know if spin was established at the time of emission or at the time of detection. Now, because of entanglement, we know. Instantaneous Information Travel. The second conclusion is that information traveled a macroscopic distance instantaneously. There is a macroscopic distance between the two detectors, and those two detectors each detect spin direction simultaneously. Direction of spin is determined only at the instant of detection, and that means readings on the two detectors are mysteriously coordinated one to the other. It means information traveled from one detector to the other at instantaneous speed, not as fast as speed-of-light but faster, faster to the ultimate speed: instantaneous, “v = 1/0”. For the typical situation of one emitted particle (and not two entangled particles), spooky action at a distance is a “collapse of the wave function”, in which the wave disappears from everywhere the particle is not (relative to an observing particle), when the particle is detected. The challenge is to explain spooky action at a distance with a mathematical model.
287 APPENDIX B - SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE New Theory. An electron and the observed photon from that electron are both one-in-the-same particle, per the proposed Theory of Special Relativity with Non-Finite Numbers. Entangled particles, too, are one particle: A whole light cone for two entangled photons is one-in-thesame as the electrons at its center, relative to an observing particle, until an observation event (or lack of observation event) of a photon is made by an observing particle. More rigor is needed, but the one particle theory has promise in explaining EPR experiment results. It is through the EPR experiment that quantum mechanics is brought to a macroscopic scale, to where we can physically see how strange quantum mechanics is. Therefore, naturally, we want to use the EPR experiment to see with our own eyes any proposed new theory.

289 APPENDIX C – DISCOVERING AN ABSTRACTION
Appendix C – Discovering an Abstraction About the Author. The author, Paul C Daiber, is a mechanical engineer who designs and services combustion turbine engines. Outside professional employment, the engineer chose to solve this puzzle: Define infinity by finding an inertial frame of reference in which a blue photon has a faster speed than a red photon. An engineering spec/procedure was written for developing new theory: 1) Abstractions. How we understand our world. •
Definitions. A person categorizes patterns in the physical, real, natural world by creating a definition for each identified pattern. Each definition is an abstraction. An abstraction is defined in words or other symbols for people to use.
•
Ours. Abstractions as definitions of categories are for our use. We define abstractions as we find useful or otherwise as we want. No external entity gives us our abstractions or defines our abstractions.
•
Application and Ambiguity. Definitions of abstractions have some degree of ambiguity. Definitions are valid only to the extent definitions are consistently applied to the real world by the definition’s prescribed rules.
•
Names. Abstractions are each named. Each is accompanied by a counter-set of abstractions, each of which also get a name.
•
Start Simple. Begin development of definitions of new abstractions by first finding patterns that are obvious. Develop more definitions by finding less obvious patterns.
290 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY 2) Discovery. A discovery is outside what can logically be derived from abstractions, used as axioms, we already have. •
Research. Become familiar with what are assumed to be inherently valid abstractions by which we know our world.
•
Guess a new definition by investigating an observation, or variations, extrapolations, combinations, tangents, violations, or alternatives.
•
Analysis. Build a bridge of logic from old definitions to the guess or from the guess to old definitions by evolving the guess to conform to logic.
•
Finish. Write it up to communicate the discovered abstraction to other people. Definitions of abstractions can be communicated and comprehended only by physical, real, natural world example experiences other people have with that abstraction, through the use of prescribed rules of the definition.
The method for discovering an abstraction was inspired from a passage in Morris Kline’s book A History of Mathematical Thought, Volume 1 (Oxford University Press, 1972) in which he paraphrased Descartes who said logic could not be used to investigate unknown fundamental truths. It seemed Descartes thought that thoughts from outside logic were needed when searching for something rules of logic were not designed to find. Elsewhere in that chapter, Morris Kline said mathematicians at the beginning of the age of algebra developed theory without discipline or rigor. In contrast to that era four hundred years ago, algebra of today is full of discipline and rigor. If we were to rethink algebra enough to include infinity in applied mathematics, then, it seemed, we had to remove ourselves from today’s discipline and rigor. Being undisciplined, we grab what we want. We violate an axiomatic rule to create something illogical, because we really want it. (The value of grabbing what is wanted was perhaps learned from Star Trek in the 1960’s: Captain Kirk got what he wanted by leading his crew to do what he wanted, regardless of rules and regulations imposed
291 APPENDIX C – DISCOVERING AN ABSTRACTION on him. The intelligent, unemotional and exclusively logical first officer, Spock, could not lead by violating rules. Therefore, Spock could only be a support person to his captain.) To solve the puzzle of blue and red photons, existing theories of physics had to be learned. Maxwell’s Equations was learned in engineering school using Halliday and Resnick’s textbook. Schrodinger’s Equation had to be self-taught. Fortunately, Eisberg’s and Resnick’s textbook was on someone’s bookshelf at work, and Gasiorowicz’s textbook was found in a used-book store. Real treasure came from the author’s dad’s college textbooks, from the mid-1950’s, which were intercepted on their way to the trash when the author was home from college. In those books was Methods of Theoretical Physics Part I by Morse and Feshbach, McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc., 1953. Unlike what was found on the internet, this old book’s development of the Dirac Equation was written for engineers and easily learned. Next, the Dirac Equation and Maxwell’s Equations had to be placed into one algebra. The most effective algebra had been assumed to be geometric algebra in Chapter 6 of Hildebrand’s textbook Advanced Calculus for Applications from college. But geometric algebra didn’t work well. Quaternions were found better because of the ease of writing identities and tracking gauge invariance, and because electric and magnetic fields could be combined into one invariant having complex components. Reading math textbooks became an enjoyable hobby. That might sound strange, but the author was recently with two old college roommates (Gator and Sonny) and they went straight to the math section when the three of them entered the Half Price Books bookstore in the (Walnut Creek, CA) square. Talking in Starbucks (coffee shop) that evening, it appeared, in general: People seek answers to the mysteriousness of the world around them by learning rational and logical techniques of math. Infinity was one such mystery. What was actual infinity? Extensive reading did not find an answer. One of the best books on infinity was Aristotle’s book Physics. He summarized what was suspected about infinity at that time, twentyfour hundred years ago. A generation or two prior to Aristotle, the Pythagoreans had proven irrationality of square-root-of-two, and that proof forced the Pythagoreans to admit that infinity, as something
292 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY different from finite natural numbers, had mathematical relevance. The Pythagoreans disliked infinity because they attributed to infinity unwanted properties “mysterious, vague, and remote” (these three words are a remembered quote from a book that cannot be found), and, in general, the Pythagoreans disliked the contamination of something proven to be irrational in their system of rational deduction. Archimedes, too, disliked infinity (per his story The Sand Reckoner) as did most of the great men of science in ancient Greece, Aristotle included. The general dislike of positive actual infinity in ancient Greece grew on the author like good advice from a parent. The feeling was that actual infinity existed in our mathematics as a temporary substitute for a theory presently unknown or unavailable to us. Early attempts to learn Cantor’s theory of infinite sets were unsuccessful because Cantor’s real numbers seemed to not include irrational numbers. Other people had seen this issue, with evidence this quote: “Cantor took N1 to be the power of the continuum. This question, however, remains open, and for the present we see no trace of a path to its solution.” (from The World of Mathematics Volume Three by Newman, 1956, Simon and Schuster, page 1599 in the article Infinity by Hans Hahn.) That book opened the door to seeking alternatives to what Cantor had specified to be the real number continuum. One early attempt (by the author) gave an irrational number a positive infinity of place-value digits after the decimal point, and then unwritten and unspecified place-value digits after that. It was close to what became local-real numbers, but at the time it led nowhere. In the last two years of the project, the author’s son’s college pure mathematics textbook, written by Chartrand and others, was found in a box in the basement, and Cantor’s theory could finally be learned as a full and complete theory. Once the bigger picture of what Cantor intended was learned, then his theory could be adapted into what was becoming the solution to the blue/red photon puzzle. A second lesson from Cantor was that he grabbed a definition for infinity, and then built a bridge of logic to it. His process was good. Long before Cantor’s theory was understood, at a time when there wasn’t much hope of success, an idea for infinity came from the phrase “forever and a day”. Reciprocal-of-zero was forever. To add one to it, hyperbolic trig functions were used: “cosh(1/0) = 1 + 1/0” and “sinh(1/0) = 1/0”. From that guess Maxwell’s Equations were derived from the Dirac Equation. It was the first big break.
293 APPENDIX C – DISCOVERING AN ABSTRACTION “1/0” meant the mathematics was invalid, but, but, there was truth down inside it, truth somewhere deeply hidden. Suspected truth became certain when the correct electromagnetic field force density was calculated using the complex conjugate. A burden of responsibility was felt, because, if a bridge of logic did not get built, then this discovery would likely become lost and forgotten, and that was because anyone who cared would not get to hear about it because any mathematics dependent on division by zero cannot be published. Division by zero is famous as a tool of deception and is called “pseudo-mathematics”. If division by zero could not be removed, then, most likely, the discovery would not be stumbled upon again for many, many years, perhaps for as long as it had already lay hidden, from when the Dirac Equation was understood (1930) to then (2010). Formal prohibition against division by zero is in the definition of rational numbers, and that meant, maybe, “1/0” and “0/0” could be changed into the wanted infinity by investigating irrational numbers. “2” was ripped apart every way possible. After some years the focus changed to “” (zeta) in “1 = 1 + 5” and “1 = 2 + 3”, which were found by equating lengths thirty degrees apart on the equilateral triangle spiral. A rational approximation to “” was calculated for each of the two equations. Was the portion not-yet-calculated the same with regards to the geometric construction of the triangle spiral? It took many years to develop that question, and even longer to answer it. It was guessed the two “”’s could only be precise to a positive actual infinity quantity of place-value digits. Their difference was called real number zero. The unknown place-value digits starting at the actual infinity count meant real number zero was different from integer zero, and that meant it could be a denominator. The division reciprocal of a real number zero became the infinity that applied to the hyperbolic-angle for motion at the speed-of-light. This was another moment of celebration. With division by integer zero gone, the theory seemed complete enough to actually tell someone. A downloadable early version of this book (titled: Infinity Applied to Special Relativity) was placed on the internet, to make it available to the public in case the project never finished. The book told a somewhat logical story from beginning to end but it lacked key essentials, for example, it lacked the exotic Lorentz Transformation needed to model
294 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY motion at the speed-of-light. It wasn’t advertised and no copies sold, and tallies showed only a person or two reviewed the first several free pages. Real number zero became “local-zero” when Aristotle’s potential infinity, a finite number, replaced positive actual infinity in the count of place-value digits. With no actual infinity in the numbers, there was worry the proposed system of numbers had deviated too far from what was generally accepted as numbers. At the very end of the project a new proposed axiom substantiated the removal of positive actual infinity, and the bridge of logic was completed. Per the method, we guessed at an abstraction (which was the combination of Maxwell’s Equations into the Dirac Equation using division by zero), and then ideas evolved until the core idea was found (which was the proposed new reciprocal-of-zero axiom). To communicate the discovery in a logical progression, per the method’s last bullet, reverse activities (with the proposed new reciprocal-of-zero axiom explained first, and the derivation of Maxwell’s Equations from the Dirac Equation last). But reversed activities in the communication erased the process of discovery that was actually followed. To not lose that excitement, with its guesses, its stress, finding critical books, and its little victories, this “About the Author” was written. Early versions for this math book had little more than an initial guess at what infinity could be. A guess cannot be the logical foundation of a math book, regardless of how strongly a person claims the guess is correct. Discipline came from Paul’s brother Andy J Daiber, another engineer. Andy was/is a hobby mathematician, but Andy was not someone like the author who searched for playgrounds in numbers. Rather, Andy was someone who appreciated the serious core values pure mathematicians have. (Andy sent the book by Mary Tiles, the Teach Yourself book on group theory, Paul Cohen’s Set Theory and the Continuum Hypothesis, and over the years he sent maybe a dozen other pure mathematics books to the author.) The author is grateful to Andy for reading this book every several years, when the book was incomplete and illogical. Andy mercilessly shot down every idea presented without substantiation. Our human tendency is to think our claims are correct, and to defend our claims when subjected to criticism. In mathematics, only logic can be a defense. When digging deeper to find fundamental evidence to prove one’s claims, we stumble upon fantastic discoveries that are unexpectedly interesting and useful. That generalization of an
295 APPENDIX C – DISCOVERING AN ABSTRACTION interactive process summarizes the human side of the development of the proposed Theory of Non-Finite Numbers. The attitude, or the sense of values, that fundamentally led to the need to write this book came from something said by a Citizenship in the Community merit badge counselor, Mr. O’Brien, paraphrased as: Don’t bother reading something unless you intend to do something with that knowledge. Now, forty years later and no longer a child, this rule for living is changed to: Success in life is not measured by how much knowledge you take to the grave with you, but rather by what good you did with that knowledge. I hope some good comes out of this effort to insert infinity into applied mathematics. What I really want is for your curiosity to have become ignited, and for you to further grow theory for non-finite numbers. And, I hope you enjoyed reading this book. \\//,
The Storybook In its first draft, storybook Alien Invasion Math Story was a collection of essays and calculations written during the hunt for a useful infinity. The storyline, with its exaggerated emotional extremes, portrayed the confusion, frustration, misdirection and stress felt in the hunt. Inspiration came from the movie Race for the Double Helix (BBC), in which Crick and Watson mixed incomplete bits of data (from Franklin) with staggered inspiration. They persevered past criticism and little failures to win the race. Their moment of success came with a revelation. Me, sitting at a desk or standing in a store watching my wife shop while thinking through proofs is not nearly as exciting as Crick and Watson in their quaint apartments and labs, so my storyline is fiction. But, at least the math and the essays on human will are real. And, for the revelation at the climax, well, you’ll just have to read it. \\//,

The third step of the Process from Descartes of a local-real number algebra operation applies the condition that the result be a local-real number (with “Lmax” maximum count of known or knowable place-value digits before or after the decimal point).

Inside the box is a radioactive nucleus. If the nucleus decays, then the emitted particle breaks a container of poison and the cat dies. An observer outside the box does not know if the nucleus has emitted a particle to break the flask and kill the cat, or hasn’t. Relative to the observer the cat is both dead and alive as a state that is both and so is neither dead nor alive separately. The decay both happened and did not happen until the decay is observed by the box being opened. The state of the cat becomes known relative to the observer when the box is opened. Schrödinger’s Equation. The non-relativistic predecessor to the Dirac Equation as a model for the dynamics of an electron using a wave as the intermediate observed form of the electron.

310 SPECIAL ALGEBRA FOR SPECIAL RELATIVITY
Back Cover Applied mathematics algebra without positive actual infinity Maxwell’s Equations unite with the Dirac Equation to combine electron dynamics with photon dynamics because, by use of the algebra, an electron projects itself as a photon. Electron/photon double existence derives from Schrödinger’s Cat because each place-value digit of a real number beyond a finite maximum in count is unknown and unknowable, analogous to the cat being both alive and dead inside its unopened box. The algebra is derived from a proposed axiom that replaces Cantor’s Continuum Hypothesis. Empirically derived energy density and the Poynting Vector unite in the force density invariant as one mathematical model. That unity suggests quantities in our geometric world actually do have finite imprecision, and that the new algebra applies to more modern theories of physics. Visualizations and exercises help comprehension. The mathematics is simple enough to be understood by a high school student who has taken first year level college math and physics classes (and is familiar with trigonometry and logarithms, complex numbers, matrix multiplication, geometric-unit-vectors, and partial differential equations). One particle at two places violates a preconceived notion that that isn’t possible. The one particle is material (fermion electron) and, its opposite, force (boson photon). Take this radical notion further by supposing perceived reality results from numbers, alone from objects, interacting by becoming more precise with respect to each other, to form patterns we see as the Dirac Equation and other mathematical models of physics. The universe is fundamentally numbers.
