Actually it’s
all about the MATH!
Most people are familiar with Pythagoras’ Theorem, c=√(a2+b2),
where c is the hypotenuse of a triangle with sides a and b. This is actually only true for a flat, Euclidean,
surface. It is true because of the
identity of a circle, cos2+sin2=1. For a triangle on a flat
surface, the hypotenuse can also be expressed as
cos(c)=cos(a)*cos(b).
For a triangle on a spherical surface, the formula for the
hypotenuse of a right triangle is based on a similar principle, but it is
cos(c/R)=cos(a/R)*cos(b/R)
or c=R*cos-1(cos(a/R)*cos(b/R))
where R is the radius of that spherical
surface. As R approaches infinity,
it becomes identical to Pythagoras’ Theorem.
For a triangle on a hyperbolic surface, the formula for the
hypotenuse is
cosh(c)=cosh(a)*cosh(b)
or c=cosh-1(cosh(a)*cosh(b)).
This is true because of
the identity of a hyperbola, cosh2-sinh2=1.
What is true for any surface, regardless of its shape, is only
that c2=a2+b2.
For the cylindrical coordinates (r, θ, z), of a
point (x, y, z) in rectangular coordinates, it is true that x=r*cosθ,
y=r*sinθ, z=z, and θ=tan-1(y/x). However the solution of r as √(x2+y2)
is only true if x and y are on a flat surface. On any surface it
is only true that r2=x2+y2,
and the solution for r depends on the shape of that surface.
Additionally, hyperbolic
trigonometric functions are defined in terms of exponentials such that
cosh(x)=½*(ex+e-x)
In this case, if the surface is hyperbolic, then the formula
for the hypotenuse of a triangle is
c=cosh-1(½*(ea+e-a)*
½*(eb+e-b))
From Euler's formula, eix=cos(x)+isin(x),
it is also true that ei0=-eiπ. Thus it is suggested that Pythagoras’ Theorem,
taking the imaginary axis into consideration, is better simplified as
c=ln(-cosh(a2+b2)±sinh(a2+b2))
rather than the conventional
c=√(a2+b2).
However it is also acknowdged that, when a and b are much less than infinity, just as Pythagoras’
Theorem can be used on the surface of the spherical Earth where its radius, R,
is much greater than a or b, Pythagoras’ Theorem is still a reasonable
approximation. In fact there is virtualy no diffence between the two until a and b are more than 20% of the absolute/infinity. The difference between the two does not become appreciable until after a and b are more than 7%[1] of the absolute/infinity.
Euler’s formula, eix=cos(x)+isin(x)
can also be viewed as the rotation of Minkowski’s spacetime, reality, on an imaginary
axis to create cylindrical coordinates. If, in Eulers’ formula, x is taken
to be θ, that is eiθ=cos(θ)+
sin(θ)*i, this can then be viewed as a complex number in
rectangular coordinates, a+b*i, where sin(θ) can be viewed as a rotation
of the imaginary axis, i, by θ, and cos(θ) is the real portion of
this complex number. However, while sin(x) is cyclical, and sin(0)=sin(π)=0, the cosine, the real part of the complex number in rectangular coordinates, is out of phase with the sine such that cos(0)=1 but cos(π)=-1. Thus it is proposed
that if a surface passes through an origin of a two-sheeted hyperboloid
such that sin(0)=sin(π)=0, that in one sheet of the two sheeted hyperboloid, cos=1, while in the other sheet cos=-1. This implies that if our universe, reality,
is on one sheet of a two sheeted hyperboloid, that at its origin it must have undergone
a phase change such that a hyperbola in one sheet, our universe, is a
reflection of a hyperbola in the other sheet, and that one sheet is also a phase
shift of π from the other sheet.
Setting the coefficient of the imaginary axis to 0, does not
mean that the axis is eliminated, only that its coefficient is zero.
[1] Actually the mean of a choice of one, squared, multipled by π squared divided by three, is 0.52π2/3 , which is equal to the variance, or 82.2%.
