You have no idea what a mathematical proof is.


A mathematical proof is a useless exercise in physics, except to show
that a theory is at least marginally consistent.

| the Lorentz,

The cuckoo malformations are built on the very idea you are claiming
can be proven.

The transformations *cannot* be proven. It is not possible to prove
physical results.

Best we can do is observe that the Universe throws us something, and we
might be able to consistently interpret it. Since lightspeed is not a
constant in the theory which you are using, it should be possible to
concoct an experiment using that particular theory which shows results
that are different from what SR and GR predict.

"Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he

to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to."

In Einstein's case if you use c+v you can derive c = (c+v)/(1+v/c) from
the cuckoo malformations he blamed on Lorentz. That says you can't
use c+v.

fail to realise is the existence of isomorphism

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomorphism

between Sagnac's real experiment and Einstein's hallucination experiment,
shown here:
http://www.androcles01.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/TwoSpeedRack.gif

Erm...I'm not familiar with that experiment. But OK.


Einstein sends light along the rack and back again, the rack
moving at velocity v in his pipe dream.

I'm assuming you mean c_0.


Sagnac sends the light around the gear wheel for real.
If you analyse one you should get the same result as the other, but
you cannot use SR to derive SR, that is petitio principii, circularity.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question

Correct. The best I can do is roll back the 1983 decision that is
the bane of your existence, and go back to the Kr_86 standard.

Of course one reason they decided in 1983 apparently to define
c = c_0 is because no one's thus far found anything different.


c+v is essential to the derivation of the cuckoo malformations, the
part where Einstein screws up is:
'we establish by definition that the "time" required by
light to travel from A to B equals the "time" it requires
to travel from B to A' because I SAY SO. -- Rabbi Albert Einstein

That is correct, and Einstein is *incorrect* in his derivation. That
may or may not affect the validity of his result. You are welcome to
do one or more of the following.

[1] Correct the derivation.
[2] Throw out the result and derive a result consistent with, among
other things, Sagnac, Ives-Stilwell, Pound Rebka, and of course
Michelson-Morley-Miller. (We may have to throw out Michelson-Morley,
though; there's a fair amount of temperature sensitivity, as Miller's
results clearly show. Of course for his part Miller's results have been
routinely ignored as an anomaly.)
[3] Create an experiment that disproves SR, perform the experiment, and
publish the results after peer review.


What he is claiming is that his "definition" is true for all frames of
reference. The absurdity that the velocity of light is the same
in all frames of reference is a consequence of that claim.

The velocity of light is *not* constant. Also, as
you've already (and correctly) pointed out, the average
velocity of light (or anything else) in a TWLS is a hard,
non-changeable zero. Of course there's a difference between

v + (-v)

and

||v|| + ||-v||

The first is zero, the second is 2||v||.

Here are some mathematical proofs:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_proof

Not included are
Proof by "because I say so",
Proof by "everybody knows",
Proof by "it is written",
the three most popular forms used in sci.physics.relativity.

You'll often see this pathetic mob muttering "Lorentz Transformations"
but they haven't a clue how they are derived and faithfully follow their
indoctrination like lemmings.

The derivation is provably incorrect, as you've already pointed out.
However, if you like we can derive it correctly. State the criteria
that you wish to use in order to derive the transformations correctly.

RULES OF REASONING IN PHILOSOPHY.

RULE I.
We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both true
and sufficient to explain their appearances.

To this purpose the philosophers say that Nature does nothing in vain,
and more is in vain when less will serve; for Nature is pleased with
simplicity,
and affects not the pomp of superfluous causes.
