  • Gyrogroups the grouplike loops in the service of hyperbolic geometry and einstein s special theory of relativity
    arXiv: Mathematical Physics, 2013
    Co-Authors: Abraham A Ungar
    Abstract:

    In this era of an increased interest in loop theory, the Einstein velocity addition law has fresh resonance. One of the most fascinating aspects of recent work in Einstein’s special theory of relativity is the emergence of special grouplike loops. The special grouplike loops, known as Gyrocommutative Gyrogroups, have thrust the Einstein velocity addition law, which previously has operated mostly in the shadows, into the spotlight. We will find that Einstein (Mobius) addition is a Gyrocommutative Gyrogroup operation that forms the setting for the Beltrami-Klein (Poincare) ball model of hyperbolic geometry just as the common vector addition is a commutative group operation that forms the setting for the standard model of Euclidean geometry. The resulting analogies to which the grouplike loops give rise lead us to new results in (i) hyperbolic geometry; (ii) relativistic physics; and (iii) quantum information and computation.

  • Decomposition of Groups into Twisted Subgroups and Subgroups
    2007
    Co-Authors: Tuval Foguel, Abraham A Ungar
    Abstract:

    .This article is subsequent to our previous one, entitled Involutory decomposition of groups into twisted subgroups and subgroups [7]. The twisted subgroups resulting from the involutory decomposition of groups into twisted subgroups and subgroups in [7] turn out to be Gyrocommutative Gyrogroups. In contrast, the twisted subgroups resulting from the (non-involutory) decomposition of groups into twisted subgroups and subgroups that we present in this article need not be Gyrocommutative. Twisted subgroups arise in the study of problems in computational complexity [1] and in the study of Gyrogroups [7]. Gyrogroups are grouplike structures that first arose in the study of Einstein's velocity addition in the special theory of relativity [23, 24]. We showed in [7] that any Gyrogroup is an extension of a group by a Gyrocommutative Gyrogroup. The Gyrogroups that we construct in this article demonstrate that this extension is not trivial. x1.

  • the relativistic composite velocity reciprocity principle
    Foundations of Physics, 2000
    Co-Authors: Abraham A Ungar
    Abstract:

    Gyrogroup theory [A. A. Ungar, Found. Phys. 27, 881–951 (1997)] enables the study of the algebra of Einstein's addition to be guided by analogies shared with the algebra of vector addition. The capability of Gyrogroup theory to capture analogies is demonstrated in this article by exposing the relativistic composite-velocity reciprocity principle. The breakdown of commutativity in the Einstein velocity addition ⊕ of relativistically admissible velocities seemingly gives rise to a corresponding breakdown of the relativistic composite-velocity reciprocity principle, since seemingly (i) on one hand, the velocity reciprocal to the composite velocity u⊕v is −(u⊕v) and (ii) on the other hand, it is (−v)⊕(−u). But (iii) −(u⊕v)≠(−v)⊕(−u). We remove the confusion in (i), (ii), and (iii) by employing the Gyrocommutative Gyrogroup structure of Einstein's addition and, subsequently, present the relativistic composite-velocity reciprocity principle with the Thomas rotation that it involves.

  • The Relativistic Composite-Velocity Reciprocity Principle
    2000
    Co-Authors: Abraham A Ungar
    Abstract:

    Gyrogroup theory [A.A. Ungar, Thomas precession: its underlying Gyrogroup axioms and their use in hyperbolic geometry and relativistic physics, Found. Phys. 27 (1997), pp. 881-951] enables the study of the algebra of Einstein's addition to be guided by analogies shared with the algebra of vector addition. The capability of Gyrogroup theory to capture analogies is demonstrated in this article by exposing the Relativistic Composite-Velocity Reciprocity Principle. The breakdown of commutativity in the Einstein velocity addition # of relativistically admissible velocities seemingly gives rise to a corresponding breakdown of the relativistic composite-velocity reciprocity principle, since seemingly (i) on one hand the velocity reciprocal to the composite velocity u#v is -(u#v) and (ii) on the other hand it is (-v)#(-u). But, (iii) -(u#v) #= (-v)#(-u). We remove the confusion in (i), (ii) and (iii) by employing the Gyrocommutative Gyrogroup structure of Einstein's addition and, subsequ..

  • ON CENTRAL EXTENSIONS OF Gyrocommutative
    2012
    Co-Authors: Krzysztof Rózga
    Abstract:

    Central extensions of Gyrocommutative Gyrogroups (K-loops) are studied in order to clarify the status of a cocycle equation introduced by Smith and Ungar. A sufficient and necessary conditions under which a central invariant extension is a Gyrocommutative Gyrogroup are formulated in terms of a 2-cochain f(x, y). In particular, it is shown that for central invariant extensions of Gyrocommutative Gyrogroups defined by Cartan decompositions of simple Lie algebras, the corresponding f(x, y) satisfies the cocycle equation, provided an extension is a Gyrocommutative Gyrogroup. 1. Introduction. There has been a renewal of an interest in loop theory in recent years, concerning a special non-associative loop structure called a Gyrocommutative Gyrogroup, known also under the name of a K-loop. It began with a paper by A. Ungar [15], who pointed it out that the addition law of relativistic velocitie

  • distributivity on the gyrovector spaces
    Kyungpook Mathematical Journal, 2015
    Co-Authors: Sejong Kim
    Abstract:

    Abstract. As a vector space provides a fundamental tool for the study of Euclideangeometry, a gyrovector space provides an algebraic tool for the study of hyperbolic ge-ometry. In general, the gyrovector spaces do not satisfy the distributivity with scalarmultiplication. In this article, we see under what condition the distributivity with scalarmultiplication is satis ed. 1. IntroductionIn order to provide an algebraic tool to study Einstein’s relativistic velocitysum, A. A. Ungar [2] has introduced a notion of Gyrogroup and has developed to-gether the study of analytic hyperbolic geometry. The Gyrogroup is a most naturalextension of a group into the nonassociative algebra. The associativity (and thecommutativity) of group operations is salvaged in a suitably modified form, calleda gyroassociativity (and a gyrocommutativity). In Section 2 we introduce a notionof (Gyrocommutative) Gyrogroup with its examples.Later on it is known that Gyrocommutative Gyrogroups are equivalent to Bruckloops (see [1]). To elaborate a precise language, we prefix a
