sqrt(1 - v^2/c^2) Relates to "Real" Laurent Series and Probable Influence 3: How Probability Patches Up Laurent Chaos |
From Osher Doctorow
Let's look at the following from the previous parts of this thread:
1) f(x) = 1 + x + x^2 + ... + 1/x + 1/x^2 + ...
Readers can verify for themselves that if x is a probability or in fact
any real normalized quantity between 0 and 1 (not taken equal to 0),
then terms like x + 1/x, x^2 + 1/x^2, etc., or even such pairs in the
following function:
2) g(x) = 1 + x + x^2 + ... - 1/x - 1/x^2 - ...
do not remain tractable in the sense of for example 0 < = x - 1/x < = 1
or similarly with x and 1/x interchanged.
However, by replacing 1/x by y/x which is conditional probability with
y < = x and both x, y in [0, 1] (except that x is not 0), the above
type of terms become tractable. For example:
3) 0 < = y/x - x = (y - x^2)/x < = 1 iff y > = x^2
Notice that y < = x is always assumed in Probable Influence/Causation,
so:
4) (y - x^2)/x < = 1 iff y - x^2 < = x iff x - y > = -x^2
and the latter (x - y > = -x^2) follows from y < = x.

This is complete nonsence.

that is not allowed with series.

From Osher Doctorow
Uter Hamelton of spamnot.com (location of a variety of Ingenious
Imitators who plague scientific forums with hostility) descends to
Mediocrity by his claim:
that is not allowed with series
snip rest of crap
The first line of his "un-gem" refers to a quotation from me which has
nothing to do with "what is or is not allowed with series". The
second line of his "un-gem" is a self-referential description from him.
Don't cry if I don't reply to you in future, Uter. Put it down to my
not replying to spam. Do be careful not to descend into your
"invalid.com" Mediocre personality, though.

In (4), I'm assuming that (y - x^2)/x is not negative from (3).
