Lorentz Transformations
In these notes we study Lorentz transformations and focus on the group of proper, orthochronous Lorentz transformations, donated by L+. (These Lorentz transformations have determinant one and preserve the direction of time.) The 2×2 matrices with determinant one, denoted SL(2, C), play a key role, as there is a map from SL(2,C) onto L+, that is 2-to-1 and a homomorphism. In this correspondence,...
متن کاملEntropy of infinite systems and transformations
The Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy is a far reaching dynamical generalization of Shannon entropy of information systems. This entropy works perfectly for probability measure preserving (p.m.p.) transformations. However, it is not useful when there is no finite invariant measure. There are certain successful extensions of the notion of entropy to infinite measure spaces, or transformations with ...
متن کاملLorentz Transformations from Intrinsic Symmetries
We reveal the frame-exchange space-inversion (FESI) symmetry and the frame-exchange time-inversion (FETI) symmetry in the Lorentz transformation and propose a symmetry principle stating that the space-time transformation between two inertial frames is invariant under the FESI or the FETI transformation. In combination with the principle of relativity and the presumed nature of Euclidean space a...
متن کاملLorentz Transformations and Statistical Mechanics
In [Gottlieb (1998)] and [Gottlieb (2000)] we launched a study of Lorentz transformations. We find that every Lorentz transformation can be expressed as an exponential e where F is a skew symmetric operator with respect to the Minkowski metric 〈 , 〉 of form −+++. We provided F with the notation of electromagnetism. Thus we can describe boosts as pure ~ E fields and rotations as pure ~ B fields....
متن کاملDeduction of Lorentz Transformations from Classical Thermodynamics
The Lorentz transformations are obtained by assuming that the laws of classical thermodynamics are invariant under changes of inertial reference frames. As Maxwell equations are used in order to deduce a wave equation that shows the constancy of the speed of light, by means of the laws of classical thermodynamics, the invariance of the Carnot cycle is deduced under reference frame changes. Star...
