Different Perspective on Time and Space: Multipolar Time – Ontology, Axiomatics and Experimental Protocols

  • 1. Independent Researcher

Description

The Multipolar Time Hypothesis proposes a fundamental change in understanding the nature of time. Instead of treating time as a scalar parameter or geometric dimension, time is understood as an ontological condition for the realization of physical events, implemented through a local stream of elementary possibility impulses. The paper presents a coherent axiomatic system, mathematical formalization within the extended general theory of relativity, analysis of relationships with existing physical theories, and four experimental protocols enabling testing of the theory's predictions.

Summary of Changes (v2 to v4)

English:

Major Updates and Refinements:

  • Ontological Consistency: Removed references to "time dilation" and "Lorentz factor" as primary effects, replacing them with a more accurate description of Time Stream Anisotropy. This aligns the text with the core hypothesis that time itself does not change, only its geometric availability.

  • Mathematical Foundation: Replaced the previous anisotropy function with the corrected form derived from Relativistic Aberration and Solid Angle Transformation

  • Stream Conservation: Formally proved that the total influx of temporal impulses remains constant), satisfying the Stream Conservation Principle (Axiom 4).

  • Appendix A Addition: Added a detailed, step-by-step mathematical derivation of the anisotropy function, moving away from frequency-based (Doppler) arguments to purely geometric ones.

  • Structural & Formatting Fixes:

    • Restored missing formulas in Section 2.4 that were lost in previous conversion steps.

    • Standardized equation numbering throughout the document and Appendix.

    • Refined Section 8.1 by removing unverified numerical constraints, focusing on the theoretical precision of the model.
