Abstract

Humans have developed mathematical theories to explain observed physical phenomena in nature. However, the links between these theories are not fully understood in 2024. Apparent incompatibilities between quantum mechanics and relativity, for instance, still exist. This paper proposes a comprehensive theory of the universe that includes gravitation, quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, special relativity, and general relativity. All of these theories are derived from the single postulate that the universe is a four-dimensional ball undergoing accelerating inflation, the surface of which is our three-dimensional world.
用一个假设统一物理理论
人类已经发展出数学理论来解释自然界中观察到的物理现象。然而,这些理论之间的联系在2024年还没有被完全理解。例如,量子力学和相对论之间明显的不相容仍然存在。这篇论文提出了一个全面的宇宙理论,包括万有引力、量子力学、电磁学、狭义相对论和广义相对论。所有这些理论都来源于一个假设,即宇宙是一个正在加速膨胀的四维球,它的表面是我们的三维世界。
