Bill EshlemanParticipant
And please let me state for the record again;
I do not have a theory of anything. What I have
is a Shannon Information Theory “treatment” that
can be applied to any theory characterized by
flows of information, including, but not limited
to, boson-like(wave-like) information and fermion-
like(particle-like) information. And the Shannon
Information Theory “treatment” is flexible and can
account for phenomena, for example, like the non-
linear path that the rays from the Sun follow
because we never see properties as they are, but
only as they were, due to using communications
channels limited by the speed of light and/or
gravity.Bill EshlemanParticipantYes, I do not understand why “space” cannot warp.
And Heisenberg tells me that position and velocity
are Fourier transforms of each other and therefore
cannot be precisely measured at the same instant;
so I tend to agree that positions and velocities
must be uncertain. But that “space” cannot warp,
I must have explained to me.Yes, I know that the fields warp when in motion and
produce magnetism for an observer that thinks he/she
is motionless. So I am willing to accept more field
warping instead of “space” warping, but I don’t
currently know why. Why? And please don’t say
“because I told you so” But explain it to me in an
analogous way that Einstein attempts to explain “space”.Bill EshlemanParticipantGyula, I guess I’ll call on Heisenberg so
when the position gets uncertain enough, I’ll
know the velocity pretty accurately. And
I’ll measure it in a laboratory to minimize
doubt.I am still troubled by your requirement
that “space” cannot warp, so I am “all ears”
as to why it cannot warp.And please don’t expect me to understand that
“space” cannot warp because your theory says
so; I desire the physical reason that led you
to find-out that “space” cannot warp.That is, is non-warping an assumption and/or
a formalism and/or an interpretation and/or
a prediction?Bill EshlemanParticipantDear Gyula,
What concerns me now is not that the charges,
masses, and fields are conserved, but that the
Lorentz invariant expression itself, may only
be an approximation. And I am still under the
(stupid maybe) impression that a Lorentz
invariant derivation of motion is identical to
using the Lorentz factor to correct the Lorentz
transformation matrix. That is, that the Lorentz
factor and the Lorentz invariant are the same
thing. Are you able to address these concerns I
have?Sincerely,
Bill EshlemanBill EshlemanParticipantAnd I’m now inclined to prefer that schwere masse
be called the “conserved mass”… the
“konserviertmasse”.Bill EshlemanParticipantDear Gyula,
And I’d really like for mass to be directly proportional to the number of protons and electrons in a particle….minus the weight and impulse of the bonds. Is that what you mean
by your clear definition of gravitational mass? Might we
call it the “real” or the “weight” mass?…what I am thinking is implied by the German “schwere masse”.Sincerely,
Bill EshlemanBill EshlemanParticipantDear Gyula,
When I first approached the field of numerical
simulation, everything in my models used
“piecewise linear” approximations of functions.
I knew that piecewise approximations using
polynomials existed, but I much preferred
piecewise linear because it was so straightforward
in the calculation of differentials and integrals.
I thought I was pretty smart doing it the “easy”
way.Then somebody showed me that piecewise quadratic was
“easy” too, and better. Then I started playing with
cubics and so-on. Then conjugates entered the picture
as well. After playing with these mathematical objects
for years, one day in 1985 I discovered the Lorentz
factor in an “approximation”. I put that factor on the
left hand side of the equation and out popped a really
neat identity, the one described above. And it was not
merely an approximation, “piecewise conjugate” was
exact. I know that even “high falooten” math-nuts on
SciAmPF had never seen my identity before; I was
user-name ClamShell at that time and they refused to
absorb what was necessary to understand it, so they
dismissed my work on the basis that they didn’t understand
it. I’m really no Galois, but Galois suffered the same
fate at the hands of his chairman. So I think maybe that
I’m onto a “new” type of analysis, and for lack of better
words, I call it “Conjugate Analysis”.And if I am wrong, I have little to lose, so I persevere
in the notion that gravity is a “conjugate field”( and so
are the other fields as well); a first principle.Sincerely,
Bill EshlemanBill EshlemanParticipantOuch! I don’t actually dismiss those “buzz-words”,
but instead consider them to be consequences instead
of “first principles”. And possibly even approximations.That is, I imagine the space around us as a bundle of
fibers described by polynomials and their conjugates;
a first principle of sorts.In short, I will make every effort to make our perspectives
converge; you with Boltzmann’s atoms and me with
Boltzmann’s entropy. Two seemingly different concepts, but
really just two perspectives of the same mechanism.Bill EshlemanParticipantSo one may ask….”What is the connection between
The Szaszian Atomistic treatment of reality, and
Eshleman’s Entropic treatment?”Ludwig Boltzmann
Bill EshlemanParticipantAnd no, please don’t accuse me as trying to
dominate this thread; it’s just that I agree
and intend to agree with the atomistic viewpoint
and am merely speculating on the composition of
the invisible lines-of-force between participating
particles. Lines of force idealized and imagined
as iron particles on a sheet of paper with a magnet
underneath, but otherwise quite invisible.I’m saying this as an experienced coder of numerical
simulations of things, NOT as a physicist.So my image of those invisible lines of force as not
only being described by conjugate polynomials, but also
caused by the conjugate polynomials, might, as some say,
be too good to be true, and therefore most likely false.So I elevate conjugate-ness to a first principle in
retribution….. makes sense to me….Bill EshlemanParticipantAnd if that isn’t incorrigible enough for your
sensibilities, that static wave-like energy is
stored in composite particles as what might be
loosely called “The Conjugates of fields”, and
that radiations are due to the orthogonality of
the very same fields; two different forms of the
same thing; one static and the other dynamic.Bill EshlemanParticipantDear Gyula,
Whenever you mention that things about the dynamics
of the universe cannot be exactly known, a little bird
whispers in my ear that we cannot know ANYTHING exactly.
But I suspect at the same “whisper,” that, that is not
exactly what you are implying either.The “whisper” tells me that you are implying that the
“Laws of Nature” are also ambiguous because they don’t
know ANYTHING exactly, either.So I suggest, like times before, that all that can be
known are “averages”; averages that are better approximations, and again never exact, but only a better “fit” with mathematical models. And that the
“Laws of Nature” are limited to never knowing what
things are, but only what they were.Invariance, covariance, form invariance… these are
“buzz-words” to me…..So I suggest that their root cause, or rather their
first principle, are relationships between polynomials
without cross-products and their appropriate conjugates.
Not as a result of, but the cause of invariance, etc.That is, the Lorentz factor and my proposed Gravitational
factor are analytical approximations of the bonding of
atoms into molecules via the motion of electrons, and the
bonding of protons and neutrons onto nuclei via vibrational
motion of charges, both electrical and gravitational.What I see as merely an ambition, other folks might view
as incorrigibility. 🙁Sincerely,
Bill Eshleman -
