"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." Albert Einstein


     Published on Science Doubts: February 2010

In the presentations here, nothing more complex than first and second order differential equations of functions of a complex variable are used, to initially develop the Special Theory of Relativity from first principles, using a new representation of Minkowski space-time designated Relativistic Domains. This forms the basis from which additional papers are developed, extending the technique into further relativistic, gravitational and cosmological matters. This extension includes the development of mathematically rigorous new theories for Gravitation, the origin and existence of the Universe, and Atomic Structure theory. The latter is based upon a combination of modern Quantum Mechanics and the old Quantum Theory of Niels Bohr and Arnold Sommerfeld.

Quantum Theory

AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE CHARACTERISTICS OF DE BROGLIE MATTER WAVES IN THE RELATIVISTIC SPACE-TIME DOMAIN D0, (PSEUDO-EUCLIDEAN SPACE-TIME

Abstract. This paper investigates the characteristics of de Broglie's matter waves in the Relativistic Space-Time Domain D0, (Pseudo-Euclidean Space-Time), and thereby provides a simplified theoretical demonstration of the dual nature of matter in both particulate and wave function form. These characteristics then enable a new method of derivation of Einstein's relativistic energy-momentum relationship which subsequently allows a deeper insight into the nature of the spatial-temporal distribution of the energy of matter.


Relativity

The Special Theory of Relativity - A Classical Approach

Abstract. The purpose of this paper is to present a new simplified approach to the mathematical formulation of Albert Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity. Initially, a new representation of Hermann Minkowski’s Pseudo-Euclidean Space-Time ”World” is defined, within which a new concept, Existence Velocity, is introduced. This then enables the simplified development, along classical analytical lines, of the Special Theory’s kinematic and kinetic relationships.


The Relativistic Characteristics of a Spinning Spherical Mass in Pseudo-Euclidean Space-Time

Abstract. This paper investigates some characteristics of spherical masses when spinning at high angular rates within the Relativistic Space-Time Domain D0, and discusses some of the potential implications.


THE VARIABILITY OF TEMPORAL RATE IN PSEUDO-EUCLIDEAN SPACE-TIME

Abstract. This short paper, via analysis of the characteristics of the spectral Doppler shift of a plain wavefront, investigates the purported variability of temporal rate in a moving reference frame in Pseudo-Euclidean Space-Time.


An Investigation into Three Relativistic Fringe Subjects

Abstract. Within the Relativistic Space-Time Domain D0, this paper investigates three "fringe" subjects that are not currently realisable. They are, (i) time travel, (ii) the conversion of matter into useable energy, and (iii) spatial travel at the velocity of light, (or more correctly, the terminal velocity of D0).


The Applicability of the Laws of Motion within a Relativistic Domain

Abstract. This paper reviews the relativistic applicability of both Sir Isaac Newton's three general laws of motion, and Johannes Kepler's three laws of planetary motion, within their applicable relativistic domains, D0, (Pseudo-Euclidean Space-Time), and D1, (Gravitational Space-Time).


Gravitation

Further Kinetics of Gravitational Motion

Abstract. Following the presentation of a new theory of gravitation in [1], this short paper discusses three further aspects concerning kinetics within the gravitational Space-Time Domain D1. They are (i) the spatial-temporal distribution of the internally generated accelerative force, (ii) the relationship between gravitational and inertial mass, and (iii) kinetic energy.

Generation of the Gravitational Acceleration Potential and The Time Dilatation Effect

Abstract. Following the presentation of the new theory of gravitation in [1], this paper presents a mathematical derivation for the generation by the gravitational source, of the two central parameters in that theory, gravitational Acceleration Potential and the time dilatation effect.

Gravitation - Expression In The Form Of Maxwell's Equations

Abstract. This paper investigates the derivation of the mathematical formulation of the Relativistic Domain theory of gravitation, in the form of Maxwell's equations of electromagnetic theory.

Cosmology

The Origin and Existence of the Universe - A New Theory
by Peter Bass

Abstract. This paper extends Relativistic Domain Theory into cosmology to develop an alternative theory for the origin and existence of the Universe. The main result is the derivation of a theoretical relationship for, and corresponding numerical value of, the Hubble constant, which is then compared with empirical results.

The Critical Size Of A Gravitational Source And The Law Of The Gravitational Accumulation Of Matter
by Peter Bass

Abstract. This paper investigates the possibility of a gravitational source possessing a physical radius of the same order of magnitude as its gravitational radius, and accordingly, its resulting characteristics. Also an empirical law for the gravitational accumulation of matter is determined.

Mathematics

Ensuring The Absolute Stability Of The Bairstow Polynomial Root Extraction Method
by Peter Bass

Abstract. Bairstow's Method of finding the roots of polynomial equations is examined in detail to determine the ways in which it fails to produce a satisfactory result. These problems are then eliminated in an experimental computer spreadsheet implementation, (Microsoft EXCEL), for polynomials of orders up to 10.


Prime Numbers - Generation by Single Variable Polynomial Equations
by Peter Bass

Abstract. The purpose of this paper is to identify, under a strict set of control conditions, those single variable polynomial equations of order 2 or higher, that generate only prime numbers.


Fermat's Last Theorem -_A Simple Proof
by Peter Bass

Abstract. This paper provides a simple proof of Fermat's Last Theorem via elementary algebraic analysis of a level that would have been extant in Fermat's day, the mid seventeenth century.
