The golden ratio is a reminder of the relatedness of the created world to the perfection of its source and of its potential future evolution.

An imaginary matter is the mirror image of the corresponding real matter.
Energy formulas for real matters are still useful for imaginary matters if an observer is in the imaginary space. Then how are energy formulas for imaginary matters expressed if an observer who is in the real space could observe imaginary matters?
Suppose that observer A is in the real space and observer B is the mirror image of observer A in the imaginary space.
The space velocity vector and spacetime velocity vector measured by observer A are the opposite of those measured by observer B in the same way that the left and right sides of the mirror image are swapped, i.e., the space speed measured by observer A is constant at the maximum speed c and the spacetime speed measured by observer A is variable.
The relationship of these velocity vectors are shown in the figure below.
Assuming an imaginary matter moves at speed vi measured by observer B, the space speed vsB, time speed vtB and spacetime speed vstB measured by observer B are as follows:
On the other hand, the space speed vsA, time speed vtA and spacetime speed vstA measured by observer A are as follows:
The following equation holds true for time speed.
Hence, the following formula is obtained for the spacetime speed measured by observer A.
The spacetime speed measured by observer A is smaller as the space speed measured by observer B is larger.
Real matters cannot move at the speed of light at the cost of having mass, while imaginary matters also have mass but move at the speed of light.
Mass energy vector is in the time axis of the space-time complex plain and the time axis is common between the real space and imaginary space. Hence, the magnitude of mass energy vector is invariant for the spatial inversion. The imaginary space axis is at right angles to the real space axis in the space-space complex plain.
Therefore, the mass energy of imaginary matter measured by observer A is expressed as follows:
where “−i” is the operator that transfers from the real space to the imaginary space and m is mass.
The energy formulas for real matters in the range of v>c express those for imaginary matters, but the energy formulas of total energy and momentum energy are exchanged for each other. Therefore, the momentum energy Es and total energy Est of imaginary matter measured by observer A are expressed as follows:
For an imaginary matter at rest (vi = 0),
The space speed of imaginary matters is always zero because they have no momentum energy. Hence, an imaginary matter is equivalent to the real matter with (square root of 2) times the mass of the imaginary matter, moving at the speed of light.
The space velocity and time velocity of real matter, light and vacuum energy and those of imaginary matter converted into the real space are arranged below.
・Real matter : relative space speed and relative time speed ・Light : absolute space speed and no time velocity ・Vacuum energy : neither space velocity nor time velocity ・Imaginary matter : absolute space speed and absolute time speed

A delightfully concise animated proof of the sum of the arithmetic progression of the naturals.

In order to raise the altitude of an artificial satellite, it is necessary to accelerate it. When the orbital speed increases, the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the satellite becomes stronger than the gravity of the earth applied to it, then the altitude rises. At this time, a certain amount of energy is returned from the satellite to the vacuum space to reduce the energy debt. Hence the orbital speed decreases and finally drops below the initial speed. The sum of the reduced amount of the momentum energy and the energy required for the acceleration is returned to the vacuum space.
In order to lower the altitude of an artificial satellite, it is necessary to decelerate it. When the orbital speed decreases, the centrifugal force becomes weaker than the gravity, then the altitude drops. At this time, the satellite is given a certain amount of energy from the vacuum space. Hence the orbital speed increases and finally rises above the initial speed. The sum of the increased amount of the momentum energy and the energy released by the deceleration is borrowed from the vacuum space.
Hi! Can you tell some uni or colleges math resources?
Can you be more specific? Like resources for studying for particular undergrad level classes?
A few “classic” online references:
Paul’s online math notes (https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/): algebra, calc 1-3, diff eqs though I’ve mostly only used the calc ones. A common favorite
Khan Academy: haven’t actually used any of their math stuff for years but I remember their videos were good
3blue1brown: he has a series on calc, diff eqs, and linear alg. I haven’t actually watched many of these either but his videos are generally good and I know people who like the series in particular
If you mean higher level math, I tend to just use a search engine and end up referencing a mix of wikipedia, wolfram mathworld, random pdfs from various universities, and math stack exchange. And of course textbook pdfs
If you give me more details, I’ll see if I can think of anything else!
