Abstract
Question – How does the Riemann Hypothesis Support Topological Propulsion and Faster-than-light Travel? Answer – a) Using the axiom that there indeed are infinitely many nontrivial zeros on the critical line (calculations have confirmed the hypothesis to be true to over 13 trillion places), the critical line is identified as the y-axis of Wick rotation (see the text accompanying Figure 6). This suggests the y-axis is literally infinite and that infinity equals zero. In this case, it is zero distance in time and space (again, see the text accompanying Figure 6). Travelling zero distance is done instantly and is therefore faster-than-light travel. b) Wick rotation is essential to this article’s description of a topological (mathematical) universe and the Riemann hypothesis’ identification with Wick means the hypothesis doesn’t just apply to the distribution of prime numbers but also applies to the fundamental structure of the mathematical universe’s space-time. As an introduction to this idea, I’ll provide background info from “Cosmos” magazine. Then I’ll move on to ideas which, today, may seem as fictional as Zefram Cochrane’s first warp-drive flight in 2063 (in the movie “Star Trek: First Contact”). But today’s science fiction is sometimes a non-technical preview of tomorrow’s science and technology. Three things are essential for the movement of both Cosmos’ curved-space robot and the propulsion-less (by known means) spaceship – shape changing, friction, and gravity. Future computers will take care of the first condition when they transform parallelograms into topological shapes. Friction is accounted for by deletion of the 3rd dimension (possible because of holographic-universe theory) plus topology’s single surfaces and self-intersections plus general relativity’s refraction of light by gravity. And the third requirement is satisfied by general relativity’s statement that gravity is the curvature of space-time. Topological propulsion also provides insights into travelling at significant fractions of – as well as faster than - light, the Higgs boson and field, electroweak interaction, dark matter, dark energy, other dimensions, space-time (eg the expanding-universe question and time travel), quantum mechanics, quantum computers, the Riemann hypothesis, and Unidentified Flying Objects.
