Special Relativistic Time Dilation: A Dynamic Perception effect
In special relativity, spacetime is with no deformation. Time dilation and length contraction in SR arise from the invariance of light speed, spatial isotropy, and non-deformation spacetime—manifesting as observer-dependent measurement effects due to dynamic light-path variations between frames.
Understanding on Lorentz-covariant rules in Special Relativity theory: The time perception of physical processes across distinct reference frames fundamentally corresponds to the observation of transformation counts. The observation time discrepancy between frames derives from the accumulated difference in their frame SEQ transformation counts. An observer measures another frame's time evolution through the differential transformation count ΔN, while he can’t perceive their own transformation count Nāā. The observed ΔN is fundamentally governed by the dynamic light-path difference between the observer's frame and the moving reference frame of the measured object. Under the principle of non-additivity of light speed (c-invariance), this formulation naturally derives Lorentz-covariant rules through counting operations.
While the mathematical derivation process aligns with standard special relativity textbooks—replacing continuous spacetime metrics with discrete counting operations—the physical interpretation differs substantially in conceptualization:
SR Effects as Perceptual Phenomena, Time dilation and length contraction in SR emerge purely as observer-dependent measurement consequences.
General Relativistic Time Dilation: Elastic Spacetime and SEQ Resonance Suppression
Gravitational (or equivalent gravitational) time dilation stems from the local deformation of the SEQ network's elastic structure, directly linking gravity to spacetime's quantum mechanical properties:
- sU(3)-Mediated Spacetime Strain: Mass-energy compresses local SEQ networks via SU(3) color interactions, storing energy as spatial strain (mass) while inducing external spacetime stretching (gravity). This anisotropic compression modifies the equilibrium spacing between SEQs, generating tension akin to a loaded spring.
- Frequency Reduction Mechanism: The strained SEQ network exhibits lower resonant frequencies—a direct consequence of increased inter-SEQ tension. Since time is defined as the count of SEQ transformations, this frequency suppression slows local "time" evolution.
- Equivalence Principle Reinterpreted: Acceleration-induced time dilation shares this mechanism: kinetic energy input during acceleration establishes interfacial SEQ strain, equivalently reducing transformation frequencies through elastic potential redistribution.
