Quaternions and Special Relativity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Physics, 1995
We reformulate Special Relativity by a quaternionic algebra on reals. Using {\em real linear quaternions}, we show that previous difficulties, concerning the appropriate transformations on the $3+1$ space-time, may be overcome.

Very Special Relativity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical 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

Doubly Special Relativity [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2002
I give a short non-technical review of the results obtained in recent work on "Doubly Special Relativity", the relativistic theories in which the rotation/boost transformations between inertial observers are characterized by two observer-independent ...

Triply Special Relativity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2004
We describe an extension of special relativity characterized by {\it three} invariant scales, the speed of light, $c$, a mass, $\kappa$ and a length $R$. This is defined by a non-linear extension of the Poincare algerbra, $\cal A$, which we describe here.

The emergence of Special and Doubly Special Relativity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2012
Building on our previous work [Phys.Rev.D82,085016(2010)], we show in this paper how a Brownian motion on a short scale can originate a relativistic motion on scales that are larger than particle's Compton wavelength.

Special Theory of Relativity [PDF]

open access: bronzeNature, 1963
PROF. H. DINGLE has sent me a reprint of his communication published under the above title on p. 985 of Nature, September 8, 1962, with the handwritten remark: “With kindest regards. Test case for the integrity of scientists”.

Perspectivism and Special Relativity

open access: yesTeorie 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

open access: yesScience & 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.

Photon mass in very special relativity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2019
In Very Special Relativity (VSR) a gauge invariant photon mass is allowed. We explore some consequences of keeping this parameter not zero. VSR-Maxwell equations are presented.
