A Lorentz variant theory that passes fundamental tests of special relativity and makes diverging, testable but as of yet untested predictions [version 2; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
F1000Research, 2023 Background Tests of special relativity have been conducted over the past century with increasing accuracy and none have showed violations of Lorentz invariance.

Special relativity at the quantum scale. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 It has been suggested that the space-time structure as described by the theory of special relativity is a macroscopic manifestation of a more fundamental quantum structure (pre-geometry).

Super special relativity [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational NeuroscienceThis paper proposes a new theoretical framework for understanding time perception centered on information processing in the brain. We introduce the concept of “perceptual time” as distinct from inertial clock time and develop a model relating perceptual ...

Special relativity derived from spacetime magma. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 We present a derivation of relativistic spacetime largely untethered from specific physical considerations, in constrast to the many physically-based derivations that have appeared in the last few decades.

Thermodynamic and kinematic origins of anisotropic relativity [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWe recently developed the framework of anisotropic relativity through a perhaps surprising path – the new theory of thermodynamic relativity. Here we show that there is another, and in retrospect more obvious path, which is through asynchronous ...

The theory of thermodynamic relativity [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWe introduce the theory of thermodynamic relativity, a unified theoretical framework for describing both entropies and velocities, and their respective physical disciplines of thermodynamics and kinematics, which share a surprisingly identical ...

Perspectivism and Special Relativity
Teorie vědy, 2021 The special theory of relativity holds significant interest for scientific perspectivists. In this paper, I distinguish between two related meanings of “perspectival,” and argue that reference frames are perspectives, provided that perspectival means ...

The Simplicity of Disproving the Theory of Special Relativity
Science & Philosophy, 2022 Einstein’s theory of Special relativity is founded on an error made by Hendrick Lorentz. It is not necessary to expose the mathematical inconsistencies of special relativity, since the theory collapses by simply exposing the error made by Lorentz.

Special relativity on the light-front
Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física, 2021 P.A.M. Dirac in 1949 showed that it is possible to construct relativistic dynamic forms starting from the description of the initial state of a given relativistic system in any space-time surface whose distances between two points on this hypersurface ...

An Improved Framework for Quantum Gravity
Universe, 2020 General relativity has two fundamental problems that render it unsuitable for tackling the gravitational field’s quantization. The first problem is the lack of a genuine gravitational variable representing gravitation only, inertial forces apart.
