TLDR
In this paper, the authors consider binary relative velocity as a traceless nilpotent endomorphism in an operator algebra, where a binary velocity is interpreted as a categorical morphism with the associative addition.Abstract:
In 1908, Minkowski [13] used space-like binary velocity-field of a medium, relative to an observer. In 1974, Hestenes introduced, within a Clifford algebra, an axiomatic binary relative velocity as a Minkowski bivector [7, 8]. We propose to consider binary relative velocity as a traceless nilpotent endomorphism in an operator algebra. Any concept of a binary axiomatic relative velocity made possible the replacement of the Lorentz relativity group by the relativity groupoid. The relativity groupoid is a category of massive bodies in mutual relative motions, where a binary relative velocity is interpreted as a categorical morphism with the associative addition. This associative addition is to be contrasted with non-associative addition of (ternary) relative velocities in isometric special relativity (loop structure). We consider an algebra of many time-plus-space splits, as an operator algebra generated by idempotents. The kinematics of relativity groupoid is ruled by associative Frobenius operator algebra, whereas the dynamics of categorical relativity needs the non-associative Frolicher–Richardson operator algebra. The Lorentz covariance is the cornerstone of physical theory. Observer-dependence within relativity groupoid, and the Lorentz-covariance within the Lorentz relativity group, are different concepts. Laws of Physics could be observer-free, rather than Lorentz-invariant.read more

Dunkl Operators as Covariant Derivatives in a Quantum Principal Bundle
TL;DR: In this article, a new proof of the commutativity of the Dunkl operators among themselves is presented, as a consequence of a geometric property, namely that the connection has curvature zero.

New definitions of 3D acceleration and inertial mass not violating F=MA in the Special Relativity
TL;DR: In this paper, the relativistic acceleration A is defined by a relativizing velocity subtraction formula, which can be seen as an extension of the standard acceleration A. This approach confirms Oziewicz binary and ternary relative velocities as well as the results of other researchers.

Electric and magnetic fields: do they need Lorentz covariance?
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the third possibility, implicit in [Minkowski 1908, §11.6], where a set of all relativity transformations of all material observers forms a groupoid category, which is not a group.

THE LORENTZ BOOST-LINK IS NOT UNIQUE. Relative velocity as a morphism in a connected groupoid category of null objects
TL;DR: In this paper, a complete solution for the link problem for arbitrary isometry, for any dimension and arbitrary signature of the invertible metric tensor, was provided, and it was shown that the isometric pure Lorentz transformation-link is not given uniquely by the initial and final vectors.

Defining of three-dimensional acceleration and inertial mass leading to the simple form F=MA of relativistic motion equation
TL;DR: In this paper, a full relativistic equation is derived for the motion of a body with variable mass whose form confirmed the previously introduced definitions, and these definitions are in line with the general version of the principle of mass and energy equivalence.
