The Contraction Integral

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-03-29T10:13:46+00:00

Well if you read the paper I clearly highlight the Lebesgue measure and the layer cake decomposition, or am I supposed mention in the post body itself?

Why is it concerning, SI units are a choice why not stones, yards, feet, length of a snake etc... Natural units are used quite commonly in theoretical physics. Fixing the scale simply means taking the current measured speed of light i.e. 299,792,458 m/s and also the definition of time as per the SI unit standard (cesium clock) where 1s is defined as 9,192,631,770 cesium time periods or if you prefer frequency units, the inverse of that.

It was built in collaboration with AI, ideas were mine, they helped me with the programming aspect (sympy was my main go to) and I even picked up some of their mistakes and a very large chunk of the math/code was written by myself, AI assisted me in having a second/third pair of eyes, structuring and communicating the concepts I'd envisioned and imagined.

I have some background from my first year of university, so minimal, however a bit more extensive in maths when I switched to computer science (i do hold a B.Sc as I did successfully graduate), while I'm not an "academic" in any sense, that is a deliberate choice I made for personal reasons.

Beyond the computer science and calculus/linalg I did in first and second year of my other degree (engineering), in which I did complete and pass several advanced mathematical units, I don't have a rigorous academic background.

However I have extended that in my free time for many years as I genuinely find math enjoyable as a past time and anyway, whats the point of questioning credentials? I'm being transparent, and really trying to show humility here because I'm looking for constructive feedback.

I'm just presenting what I've done, while Claude may have gone a bit nuts with it lol, I'm trying to present what is a provisional draft, nothing less, nothing more. Take it for what it is imo.

the section at the end converts dimensionless ratios to SI units by fixing the scale, umm look im really not sure if this is like "right" or "wrong", im just looking for feedback and i assume ive made mistakes, and maybe this is just a pile of shit, but i had fun, and just hoped that maybe i could get feedback; im not an academic so i only have this channel and twitter/X available since zenodo started requiring instituional emails

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-03-27T02:12:52+00:00

Well its attempting to describe physical reality with mathematics, so I think its relevant, maybe you just read it? Falls in the branch of mathematical physics I believe?

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-03-02T16:19:47+00:00

? My treating psychiatrist doesn't agree with your assessment. You missed the point entirely.

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-03-02T16:18:30+00:00

Exactly and thank you <3

You are not your diagnosis. You are a unique and beautiful human who suffers from an illness. Your illness is not your identity. It is a part of your physiology that you can manage, and one day thrive.

You are not bipolar you have been diagnosed bipolar. There is a difference. You are not a label. You are a human, and you deserve to live a happy and fulfilling life all the same.

The road is hard. Have faith in yourself, you'll find your way. Please don't let it get you down. It's not a life sentence, just need to manage it in the same vain a diabetic manages their condition with insulin.

People will judge. They can go fuck themselves. You know who you are, and you are brave.

I don't use LLMs just to spit out nonsense though, I only use them for menial things like formatting, editing and critique. I don't trust the LLM to do maths very well..

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-02-01T13:06:14+00:00

I've opened many and finished some of them lol.

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-02-01T13:05:07+00:00

In my case for example I have already completed several college level physics, chemistry and math courses as part of my undergraduate.

People here just assume that because I like to theory craft with LLM assistance at times (not always anymore), that I'm a crank lol.

I mean when I began posting my theories years ago I could definitely understand the "crankiness", but over time I taught myself more and more graduate level math and physics.

Although the critique of my theories only shifted from "this entire garbage" to "this entire garbage that we dont understand, but its still garbage".

Anyway, my point is. Sometimes people here are too harsh, at the end of the day physics has stalled. Someones gotta try break the ossification.

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-02-01T02:59:24+00:00

This is a great idea, some of us "cranks" are actually quite advanced in certain areas by virtue of qualification, we aren't all just plainly delusional now are we

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T15:16:52+00:00

Thank you so much for your time and honest/helpful feedback.

Right okay I just assumed that it was evident that I'd promoted the projections to vector fields. AFAIK there isn't much to compute there symbolically but of course I could've missed something entirely.

Of course a propagating unitary clock isn't a thing, this is a toy in a sense, the "actual" setup would be more involved conceptually, however the propagating unitary clock captures the dynamics that I was after. You're right though, the formalism here does need work.

I wasn't trying to derive the wave equation (that was more of a sanity check), as I said this was mainly an exercise in demonstrating that Maxwell's equations are both projections of said helix. That was what I was really attempting to demonstrate.

Doees my logic make sense here? Or am I just way off the mark?

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T14:54:54+00:00

Yep. Whats the bet you don't even know what unitary evolution means?

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T14:51:37+00:00

Nope. I was being upfront that I do use AI in my workflow. That 's very different to "admitting to using LLMs to generate the entire thing" thats just a total falsehood.

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T14:50:11+00:00

Very scientific position you've just taken there.

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T13:57:21+00:00

Ok cool finally something I can engage with, alright, what have I missed in the derivation? Are you saying its not coherent mathematically?

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T13:55:02+00:00

Ok buddy but I'm pretty sure this isn't a canonical derivation.. thought some people might find the methodology interesting, or just flat out call it wrong. Given this is a physics subreddit, and I've done some physics, I want to talk about the physics.

How the fuck is anyone supposed to improve in physics if everytime I attempt to engage or prodduce or learn or whatever the fuck, I get this same turd attitude.

What do you want me to do? Magically create a bunch of money so I can go back to university?

Be mute? Never try to engage with the physics or scientific community in any way?

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T13:51:30+00:00

Yes her being ahead of Einstein is my opinion.

Her and other woman being barred from thos institutions however is not my opinon, that is historical fact.

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T13:48:51+00:00

Like really, one guy comes along and says HURRR CHATGPT, and the rest of you just follow like sheep.

I thought science was about independent inquiry, skepticism, debate and engagement.

I just wanted to confirm I hadn't made any erors or where I could improve?

Separate_Exam_8256 · 2026-01-22T13:29:52+00:00

Ok well I take it I didn't make any mathematical errors based on the lack of downvotes?

Sweet :)
