I came across a very interesting and novel "interpretation" of
relativity in which the author claims to resolve the mathematical
incompatibilities with merging QM and relativity. The essence of his
idea is that there is an unseen dimension tau (proper time) through
which particles at rest travel through at the speed of light. The
magnitude of velocity for all particles in the universe is always c.
Mass is the effect of momentum through this unnoticed dimension, hence
why particles that travel at c in the x,y,z dimensions are massless ;
their velocity through tau is 0. This interpretation results in a
euclidean and likely quantized geometry. I am interested in what
others on this list think about it. It seems to make computational
theories of this universe much more appealing and simplified.
