Resulting Formalism: Idea • Question: can other dimensions explain other physics? K -Vectors Towards K -Covectors • Success (Th. Kaluza, O. Klein, 1921): 5D GRT K -Covectors – gravitation for 4 × 4 components g ij of the metric, K -Tensors: Definitions – g 5 i satisfy Maxwell’s equations (if g 55 = const). K -Tensors: Main Result Explaining the . . . • Problem: no physical explanation of 5-th dimension. Differential Formalism . . . Coordinate . . . • Solution (A. Einstein, P.

What We Suggest • Problem: the standard multi-D physical model is unusual geometrically: Resulting Formalism: Idea K -Vectors – the space is a cylinder, Towards K -Covectors – not a plane anymore. K -Covectors K -Tensors: Definitions • Observation: this feature is, however, interestingly related to data processing: K -Tensors: Main Result – some measured data are angles, and Explaining the . . . – angles do form a circle.
