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.

Very Special Relativity [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2006
By Very Special Relativity (VSR) we mean descriptions of nature whose space-time symmetries are certain proper subgroups of the Poincar\'e group. These subgroups contain space-time translations together with at least a 2-parameter subgroup of the Lorentz

Holographic Special Relativity [PDF]

Advances in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics, 2013
We reinterpret special relativity, or more precisely its de Sitter deformation, in terms of 3d conformal geometry, as opposed to (3+1)d spacetime geometry.

Super special relativity [PDF]

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience
This 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 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).

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 Reports
We 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 Reports
We 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.
