You butted in on my reply to dralex:

| The equations are linear,

tau(0) = 0
tau(4) = 8
tau(10) = 8
tau(16) = 8
tau(20) = 16
No way is that linear.

You can assume all you want, I'm talking mathematics, not assumptions.
The equations are not linear, no matter how much you assert they are.

Isotropic:
tau_x = (t-vx/c²)/sqrt(1-v²/c²)
tau_y = (t-vy/c²)/sqrt(1-u²/c²)
tau_z = (t-vz/c²)/sqrt(1-w²/c²)
xi = (x-vt)/sqrt(1-v²/c²)
eta = (y-ut)/sqrt(1-u²/c²)
zeta= (z-wt)/sqrt(1-w²/c²)

You need three time axes to be isotropic. Spacetime is not isotropic.

I've just modified them - obviously you need three wristwatches.

The lying garbage is either
tau_y = t
tau_z = t
eta = y
zeta= z

or

tau_x = (t-vx/c²)/sqrt(1-v²/c²)
xi = (x-vt)/sqrt(1-v²/c²)


It's kinda hard to say which since the idiots Einstein and Minkowski
use the Galilean transforms for the y- and z-axes. If people want to
play mathematical games they should at least be consistent or they'll
be caught in a contradiction, aren't you? :-)

and you haven't shown anything I said was wrong.

Snipping and changing the subject only demonstrates what a stupid ***
you are, so *** off, you moron.
