    NONSTANDARD LOGICS AND NONSTANDARD METRICS IN PHYSICS

    by W M Honig (Curtin University, Australia)

    This book presents two new mathematical techniques: nonstandard logics and nonstandard metrics. The techniques are applied to current problems in physics, i.e. the hidden variable problem, the local and nonlocal problems, etc.

     
    Contents:
    • The Basis for this Book
    • Part I. Preview:
      • Introduction and History
      • Nonstandard Mathematical Methods of Part II
      • Preview of a Realistic Physics of Part III
    • Part II: Nonstandard Mathematical Methods:
      • The Ubiquity Principle, Local/Nonlocal, and Local/Global Distinctions
      • Nonstandard Logics
      • Nonstandard Metrics
      • Nonstandard Delta Function
    • Part III. Applications to a Realistic Physics:
      • Dual Charged Fluids
      • Discrete Electromagnetic Waves, Photex, and h
      • Nonlocal Hidden Variable Wave Equations, Double Slits, and All That
      • Deriving Planck's Constant and Complete Electron Self-Energy from Fluidic Models
      • Photex/Photon Rest Frames and Null Geodesics
      • Meaning of h
     
    Readership: Physicists and mathematicians.
     
    “Honig's ideas are original, radical, and worthy of discussion and testing … Unorthodox and strange ideas have often been a stimulus for the progress of science.”
