Can physics laws be derived from monogenic functions?
نویسنده
چکیده
This is a paper about geometry and how one can derive several fundamental laws of physics from a simple postulate of geometrical nature. The method uses monogenic functions analysed in the algebra of 5-dimensional spacetime, exploring the 4-dimensional waves that they generate. With this method one is able to arrive at equations of relativistic dynamics, quantum mechanics and electromagnetism. Fields as disparate as cosmology and particle physics will be influenced by this approach in a way that the paper only suggests. The paper provides an introduction to a formalism which shows prospects of one day leading to a theory of everything and suggests several areas of future development.

How much in the Universe can be explained by geometry ?
The paper uses geometrical arguments to derive equations with relevance for cosmology; 5-dimensional spacetime is assumed because it has been shown in other works to provide a setting for significant unification of different areas of physics. Monogenic functions, which zero the vector derivative are shown to effectively model electrodynamics and relativistic dynamics if one allows for space cur...
متن کاملExtending coherent state transforms to Clifford analysis
Segal-Bargmann coherent state transforms can be viewed as unitary maps from L2 spaces of functions (or sections of an appropriate line bundle) on a manifoldX to spaces of square integrable holomorphic functions (or sections) onXC. It is natural to consider higher dimensional extensions of X based on Clifford algebras as they could be useful in studying quantum systems with internal, discrete, d...
متن کاملFirst Principles Derivation of Displacement and Stress Function for Three-Dimensional Elastostatic Problems, and Application to the Flexural Analysis of Thick Circular Plates
In this study, stress and displacement functions of the three-dimensional theory of elasticity for homogeneous isotropic bodies are derived from first principles from the differential equations of equilibrium, the generalized stress – strain laws and the geometric relations of strain and displacement. It is found that the stress and displacement functions must be biharmonic functions. The deriv...
متن کاملEffects of RF-EMF Exposure from GSM Mobile Phones on Proliferation Rate of Human Adipose-derived Stem Cells: An In-vitro Study
Background:As the use of mobile phones is increasing, public concern about the harmful effects of radiation emitted by these devices is also growing. In addition, protection questions and biological effects are among growing concerns which have remained largely unanswered. Stem cells are useful models to assess the effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) on other cell lines. S...
متن کاملDerivation of conservation laws from nonlocal symmetries of differential equations
An identity is derived which yields a correspondence between symmetries and conservation laws for self-adjoint differential equations. This identity does not rely on use of a Lagrangian as needed to obtain conservation laws by Noether’s theorem. Moreover, unlike Noether’s theorem, which can only generate conservation laws from local symmetries, the derived identity generates conservation laws f...
