Matter or geometry as fundamental in relativity theory:How not to teach special relativity
relativity spacetime ontology constructivism
2016/6/13
In this paper, I review a number of interpretational frameworks for relativistic phenomena like length contraction and relativity of simultaneity. Of central focus is the book Physical Relativity by H...
On the Empirical Equivalence Between Special Relativity and Lorentz's Ether Theory
relativity Einstein Lorentz empirical equivalence empirical evidence non-empirical virtues
2016/6/12
In this paper I argue that the case of Einstein’s special relativity vs. Hendrik Lorentz’s ether theory can be decided in terms of empirical evidence, in spite of the predictive equivalence between th...
Comment on "Trouble with the Lorentz law of force: Incompatibility with special relativity and momentum conservation"
the Lorentz law of force Incompatibility special relativity momentum conservation Optics
2012/5/29
It has been recently argued [arXiv:1205.0096] that the Lorentz force is incompatible with Special Relativity and should be amended in the presence of magnetization and polarization in order to avoid a...
A Discussion of Special Relativity
Discussion of Special Relativity History and Philosophy of Physics
2012/5/17
Five topics: A rigid body does not exist in the special theory of relativity; distant simultaneity defined with respect to a given frame of reference without any reference to synchronized clocks; chal...
Trouble with the Lorentz law of force: Incompatibility with special relativity and momentum conservation
the Lorentz law of force Incompatibility special relativity momentum conservation Optics
2012/5/17
The Lorentz law of force is the fifth pillar of classical electrodynamics, the other four being Maxwell's macroscopic equations. The Lorentz law is the universal expression of the force exerted by ele...
Quantum Mechanics versus Special Relativity: A forgotten conflict
quantum mechanics special relativity quantum collapse quantum entanglement space-time causation separability locality non-locality asymptotic independence
2011/9/6
Despite the widespread assumptions on the compatibility between non-relativistic quantum mechanics and special relativity, there still remains a considerable amount of unresolved problems to which few...

Minkowski famously introduced the concept of a space-time continuum in 1908, merging three dimensional space with an imaginary time dimension represented by ict, a framework which naturally produced t...
A law of motion for spherical shells in special relativity
Relativistic fluid dynamics；Relativistic plasmas
2010/11/15
Self-similar solutions to the problem of a special relativistic law of motion for thin shells of matter are calculated. These solutions represent the special relativistic generalization of momentum co...
Can quantum theory and special relativity peacefully coexist?
Can quantum theory special relativity peacefully coexist
2010/11/5
This white paper aims to identify an open problem in 'Quantum Physics and the Nature of Reality' --namely whether quantum theory and special relativity are formally compatible--, to indicate what the ...

Despite the widespread assumptions on the compatibility between non-relativistic quantum mechanics and special relativity, there still remains a considerable amount of unresolved problems to which few...
Isometric group of $(\alpha,\beta)$-type Finsler space and the symmetry of Very Special Relativity
Very Special Relativity Finsler space
2010/3/17
The Killing equation for a general Finsler space is set up. It is showed that the Killing equation of $(\alpha,\beta)$ space can be divided into two parts. One is the same with Killing equation of a R...
Variation of the fine-structure constant from the de Sitter invariant special relativity
quasi-stellar objects Oklo nature nuclear reactor Dirac large number hypothesis de Sitter invariant special relativity
2009/8/13
We discuss the variation of the fine-structure constant, α. There are obvious discrepancies among the results of α-variation from recent Quasi-stellar observation experiments and from the Oklo uranium...
Special Relativity and the Future: A Defense of the Point Present
time temporality indeterminacy tense special relativity
2008/4/21
In this paper, I defend a theory of local temporality, sometimes referred to as a point-present theory. This theory has the great advantage that it allows for the possibility of an open future without...
Special Relativity, Coexistence and Temporal Parts: A Reply to Gilmore
special relativity coexistence temporal parts
2008/4/21
In two earlier works (Balashov, 2000a and 2000b), I have argued that considerations based on special relativity and the notion of coexistence favor the perdurance view of persistence over its enduranc...
