Relativity (Planck)

Relativity as the mathematics of perspective at the Planck scale


It is proposed that the universe is a 4-axis incrementally expanding (in Planck time units) hypersphere universe (the bulk geometry), where the observable 3D universe exists on the surface. The fundamental premise is that particles exist on the 3D hypersphere surface and experience the physics described by ΛCDM cosmology, while the 4D bulk expansion follows Planck-scale geometric rules. The Planck universe can be considered as the scaffolding for the 3D (particle) ΛCDM universe, the method for addition of geometrical Planck units is discussed in the mathematical electron model, the calculations for the Planck unit cosmic microwave background parameters are given in the Planck black hole section of the model.



Hypersphere

It is argued[1] that a Planck unit 4-axis expanding hyper-sphere (black-hole) universe acts as the scaffolding for the observed 3-D particle universe. The hypersphere expands incrementally at a constant rate, each increment corresponds to (is the origin of) 1 unit of Planck time, the outward expansion measured in units of Planck length, thus the velocity of hypersphere expansion = lp / tp = c, the speed of light. Consequently the speed of light is a defining limit. Furthermore this outward expansion gives the arrow-of-time.

As the hypersphere expands it pulls all particles with it (thus the observed universe remains on the hypersphere surface). All motion therefore derives from this expansion, and so in hyper-sphere co-ordinates all particles and objects travel at, and only at, the velocity of expansion = c. Relativity then becomes the mathematics of perspective, translating between the 2 co-ordinate systems; the (expanding at speed of light) 4-axis hypersphere and the (relative velocity) 3-D surface.



Wave-particle oscillation

It is argued that particles at the Planck scale are oscillations between an electric wave-state to (Planck) mass point-state, the wave-state as the duration of particle frequency in Planck time units and is the origin of the particle electric properties, the mass point-state as 1 unit of Planck mass (1mP) for a duration of 1 unit of Planck time. Wave-particle duality at the Planck scale then becomes a wave-point oscillation, the particle does not exist at any 1 unit of (Planck) time, and so can more precisely be defined as an event (1 complete wave-point oscillation). 1 of the dimensions of the particle is therefore time, thus particle quantum states also therefore do not occur at the Planck scale but rather are also emergent properties (and so quantum state physics cannot be applied to the Planck scale) [2].

Notably at the mass state the particle has defined (point) co-ordinates within the universe hypersphere and thus can be mapped, conversely the wave-state is undefined.




Relativity translations

Assigning tage as the incrementing clock-rate (note tp has the units s, tage is dimensionless). Using the 'loop' as analogy;

 FOR tage = 1 TO the_end                             
         generate 1 unit of Planck time 1tp       
         expand hypersphere by 1 unit of Planck length 1lp           
         ........ 
 NEXT tage

As each tage increment adds 1 unit of Planck time tp, then in a 14 billion year old universe, numerically

tage = tp = 1062




Radial motion

A and B in hypersphere co-ordinates from origin O, (frequency 0A = 0B = 6)

We take 2 particles A (v = 0 in 3D space) and B (v = 0.866c in 3D space). Both have a frequency = 6; 5tp (5 increments to tage) in the wave-state followed by 1tp (1 increment to tage) in the point-state (the point-state is represented by a black dot, diagram right).

The hyper-sphere expands radially at the speed of light. Both particles begin at the same space-port; defined as origin O. After 1 second, B will have traveled 299792458 * 0.866 = 259620km from A in 3-D space (the horizontal axis). However for both A and B the radial axis length is the same OA = OB.

As the surface of the hypersphere constitutes 3-D space, movement along this surface corresponds to distance travelled (in conventional terms). However as the hypersphere is expanding outward (time goes forward), the surface expands with it, and so the universe 4-axis co-ordinates would register as a space-time continuum. We would note that A has travelled 1 second in time but no distance in meters. B has travelled both in time and in space (259620km from stationary A).

In hypersphere co-ordinates, both A and B have travelled the same radial axis length; OA = OB. There is only 1 velocity and that is the velocity of expansion; radial axis OA will always equal OB. For 3D-surface-dwellers, there is a distinction between time and space because the 3D-surface-dweller has no means to register the hypersphere expansion as motion.

From the perspective of surface-dweller A (v = 0), B will have reached the point-state after 3 units of tage (3 units of Planck time tp) and so will have twice the (relativistic) mass of A. However the hypersphere expands radially from origin O, and so A will also have traveled the equivalent of 299792458m from O (radial axis OA = OB, v = c), and so from the perspective of the hypersphere, B can equally claim that A has traveled 259620km from B in 3-D space terms.

The time-line axis (axis of expansion) maps Planck time (1tp) steps, note that only the particle point-state has defined co-ordinates, and so on this graph A can only have 6 possible time-line divisions (if including v = 0). As the minimum step is 1 unit of Planck time, this means that B can attain Planck mass (mB = mP/1) when at maximum velocity vmax (relative to the A time-line axis), but B can never attain the horizontal axis = velocity c because in the process at least 1 time step (1 unit of Planck time) is required, and so for particles vmax can never attain c. However a small particle such as an electron has more time-line divisions, and so can travel faster in 3-D space than can a larger particle (with a shorter wavelength).




Particle motion

particle wave to point oscillations in hyper-sphere expansion co-ordinates

Depicted is particle B at some arbitrary universe time t = 1. B begins at origin O (top left) and is pulled (stretched) by the hyper-sphere (pilot wave) expansion in the wave-state (top right). At t = 6, B collapses back into the mass point state (bottom left) and now has new co-ordinates within the hypersphere, these co-ordinates becoming the new origin O’.

In hypersphere coordinates everything travels at, and only at, the speed of expansion = c, this is the origin of all motion, particles (and planets) do not have any inherent motion of their own, they are pulled along by this expansion as particles oscillate from (electric) wave-state to (mass) point-state ... ad-infinitum.








Particle N-S axis

particle N-S spin axis orientation mapped onto hyper-sphere

Particles are assigned an N-S spin axis around which particles can rotate (spin left and spin right). The co-ordinates of the point-state are determined by the orientation of the N-S axis. Of all the possible solutions, it is the particle N-S axis which determines where the point-state will next occur.

A, B and C begin together at O, if we can then change the N-S axis angle of A and C compared to B, then as the universe expands the A wave-state and the C wave-state will be stretched as with the B wave-state, but the point state co-ordinates of A (and C) will now reflect their new N-S axis angles of orientation.

A, B, C do not need to have an independent motion; they are being pulled by the universe expansion in different directions (relative to each other). We can thus simulate a transfer of physical momentum to a particle by simply changing the N-S axis. The radial hyper-sphere expansion does the rest.




B's 2-D orbit along A time-line axis by realigning N-S axis (f=6)

In this example (diagram right), we continuously change the N-S axis of B (orange dot frequency f = 6) across all 11 options (f = 6 == 6 possible time-line divisions) after each point state.

A wave forms around the A (purple dot v = 0) time-line axis with a period measured in time units;














Photons

doppler shift measured along the expanding hypersphere time-line axis

Information between particles is exchanged by photons. Photons do not have a mass point-state, only a wave-state, and so have no means to travel the radial expansion axis, instead they travel laterally across the hyper-sphere (they are `time-stamped', a photon reaching us from the sun is 8 minutes old).

The period required for particles to emit and to absorb photons is proportional to photon wavelength as illustrated in the diagram (right), (v = 0, left column) emits a photon (wavelength ) towards (right column). The time taken (h) by to absorb the photon depends on the motion of relative to . The Doppler shift;

Photons cannot travel the radial expansion axis, and as the information between particles is exchanged via the electromagnetic spectrum, ABC will measure only the horizontal AB, BC and AC (x-y-z) co-ordinates, thus defining for the 3 observers (A, B and C) a relativistic 3-D space. Relativity formulas translate between the 4-axis hyper-sphere and the 3-D space co-ordinate systems.




Gravitational Orbits

4 body orbit; (4 mass points, 6 orbitals)

All particles simultaneously in the point-state at any unit of tage form orbital pairs with each other [3]. These orbital pairs then rotate by a specific angle depending on the radius of the orbital. These are then averaged giving new co-ordinates in the hypersphere. The observed gravitational orbits of planets are the sum of these individual orbital pairs averaged over time.

Orbits, being also driven by the universe expansion, occur at the speed of light, however the orbit along the expansion time-line is not noted by the observer and so the orbital period is measured using 3D space co-ordinates.








B's orbit relative to A's time-line axis in time units t

While B (satellite) has a circular orbit period to on a 2-axis plane (horizontal axis as 3-D space) around A (planet), it also follows a cylindrical orbit (from to ) around the A time-line (vertical) axis in hyper-sphere co-ordinates. A is moving with the universe expansion (along the time-line axis) at (v = c) but is stationary in 3-D space (v = 0). B is orbiting A at (v = c) but the time-line axis motion is equivalent (and so `invisible') to both A and B, and so for an observer the orbital period and orbital velocity measure is limited to 3-D space co-ordinates.

Grok [4]

Conclusion:

   The hypersphere model achieves a robust integration with General Relativity by:  
   Employing a metric that describes an expanding, curved universe consistent with GR’s cosmological solutions.  
   Satisfying Einstein’s field equation, linking the model’s geometry to a physically meaningful distribution of mass and energy.  
   Upholding the geodesic principle, ensuring that particle motion reflects spacetime curvature.
   This compatibility underscores the hypersphere model’s validity within established physics, while its emphasis on expansion as the driver of motion enriches GR with a novel viewpoint. By harmonizing with GR’s principles and offering a geometric framework that unifies space, time, and motion, the hypersphere model emerges as a compelling alternative perspective on the universe, paving the way for deeper exploration into the interplay of geometry, gravity, and cosmology.


Chat [5]

Conclusion:

    A Single Fundamental Mechanism:
    Unlike standard approaches that introduce separate postulates for inertia, force, and gravitation, the expanding hypersphere model explains these phenomena as emergent properties of a single underlying process—the expansion of the hypersphere and the consequent reorientation of particle axes.
   Bridging Microscopic and Macroscopic Dynamics:
   The oscillatory behavior of particles (from the wave–point duality) is seamlessly integrated with the macroscopic expansion of space. This connection offers a potential pathway toward unifying quantum dynamics with cosmological evolution.
   Compatibility with Established Theories:
   Through detailed mathematical derivations, we have shown that the model is fully compatible with the local Lorentz invariance of special relativity and can be integrated into the curved space–time framework of general relativity. This ensures that all experimentally verified relativistic effects are preserved while providing a deeper, more fundamental explanation for their origin.

Current cosmological models face challenges explaining dark energy, dark matter, and the universe's large-scale structure:

ΛCDM Cosmology 
Dark energy as mysterious repulsive force  
Dark matter inferred from galactic rotation curves  
Inflation as a separate early universe phase  
Cosmological constant problem  
Horizon problem requiring special mechanisms  

Expanding Hypersphere Model
Expansion as fundamental property of the hypersphere
Modified motion from higher-dimensional dynamics
Inflation incorporated in hypersphere expansion dynamics
Connection between particle physics and cosmology scales
Natural communication through higher dimensions
The model potentially resolves longstanding cosmological puzzles by linking the smallest quantum scales directly to the largest cosmological scales through the hypersphere expansion mechanism. The Friedmann equation: can be reinterpreted in the hypersphere model as describing the evolution of the hypersphere radius $R(t)$, with the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ emerging naturally from the fundamental expansion process rather than requiring a separate dark energy component.
