Lorentz transformations are hyperbolic rotations. If you think visually and you like analogies, this viewpoint might help when thinking about special relativity. 🧵 anilzen.github.io/post/hyperboli…

@star_stufff Of course they are. This is like saying there are no real numbers. Sure, there’s a sense in which both of these statements are true. But real numbers are a great idealization for reality, and so are asymptotically flat black holes.

How the heck did the US get away with the worst mass slaughter of school children in history, without the whole world condemning them?

The entire US budget for particle physics is about $1.6B per year — roughly the cost of *two* days of current IRAN war. Yet some people still say US should cut pure research to save money.

the simulation theory has to be the most ignorantly stupid theory of all time; not because of the fact that it can’t be true, but rather the fact that it literally solves no problem at all it tries to answer the question of creation by adding another layer of creation and thereby just completely ignoring the creation of those who created the simulation?

The mathematical result that astonishes me the most is actually a non-result: the fact that Euclid didn’t try to prove his fifth postulate, but simply assumed it. Something the mathematical community fully understood only about 2,000 years later.

@star_stufff This is like many other such ideas mentioned without substance and turn out to be correct (black holes, atoms, etc.). If you interact with "retired engineers," you'll find many have somewhat reasonable ideas as well. Ideas are dime a dozen. Execution matters.

On 26th March 1885, a paper appeared in Nature with a curious article titled “Four-dimensional space”. The anonymous author “S” imagined a four-dimensional union of space and time, very much like the setting that Minkowski proposed in 1908 for Einstein's relativity.

I like the way you think. I find myself thinking about similar universality claims concerning hyperbolic geometry. But your logic is circular. You imply that boundedness implies hyperbolic kinematics, but then you assume Möbius translations, which becomes tautological. Boundedness doesn't imply hyperbolic geometry, it just restricts the range. Your additional assumptions bring in hyperbolic geometry, but then the statement becomes trivial. By the way, have you looked into thermodynamics? Just like you can't reach the speed of light, there's a somewhat similar impossibility of reaching absolute zero Kelvin. Temperature is considered to be not bounded from above, but there's Planck temperature so there is boundedness in some sense in both directions. Anyway, back to the point. You're repackaging known structure. You're essentially making a functional classification statement finding hyperbolic structures. Your mass gap theorem is not a theorem. There are also some technical dimensionality issues in your presentation. You'd need a constructive QFT argument for the regulated YM with continuum limit and universality relative to Wilson action. Physics is tough and very detail oriented. You have an idea but this is like having an idea to build a bridge across the ocean. That's not enough. Can you actually build the damn thing? As they stand, your notes would never pass peer review. Read more technical papers from reputable journals to see the difference. That's all I can say. Good luck.

@DanielJohn38365 It seems to me that you're using hyperbolic coordinates on the Poincaré ball for things like momentum operator because it lives on the mass hyperboloid. You must realize that this is not enough. What about holography, QFT? Try writing for a physics journal.

@AnilZenginoglu Anil, I assume you either don't take my work seriously or you yourself don't understand what it is you are close to discovering. A reply would be helpful in understanding your thoughts on the matter. I've provided a complete mathematical framework that is self proving.

It's fascinating how theorists derive consequences from some assumptions, find them inconsistent with observation, and then question whether the physical world exists independently of the observer, rather than concluding that the assumptions are wrong. quantamagazine.org/cosmic-paradox…

Fair question. What do we learn from gravitational waves? The form of the chirp signal is well understood from Genearl Relativity. 1/
Oliver Steinbock@SteinbockGroup

@WKCosmo So it fits and is amazing, but what else can be learned from it going forward? I'm curious, not criticizing ... The information content in that type of signal is low.

Beautify your timeline: "scattering theory provides a parametrization of the continuous spectrum of an elliptic operator on a complete manifold with uniform structure at infinity." Music to my ears.
