Special Relativity with Ruler and Compass

Authors/Creators

Description

This document provides a visual overview of the geometric framework developed in the working paper: "Quaternionic Möbius Transformations: a Different Approach to Relativistic Kinematics" (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18344596).

Initially designed as a synthesis for scientific outreach on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7438170134956998656/), this "Slider" uses the Stroke Notation (a proprietary algebraic-geometric syntax) to bridge ruler-and-compass constructions with relativistic mechanics.

Note: This version (v1.0) includes a symbolic representation of the "Zorro Signature" (Slide 7), a key feature of the spacetime syntax not present in the original social media post.
