Red Herring, I never claimed ""Warp drive" (and its various other metric equivalents) is simple weightlessness." I claim any good warp drive must have the occupants weightless.



Reply to James Woodward and then Shipov's message.

Shipov, while claiming to support Sarfatti's incorrect remark about
"weightless warp drive" in fact, however, makes precisely my point:
manipulation, in this case, of the torsion field alters the MASSES (read
inertia) of things. If it did not, there would be no effect of interest.
Weightlessness can be achieved by almost anything by simple geodesic
motion. "Warp drive" (and its various other metric equivalents) is not
simple weightlessness. It requires the manipulation of the masses of
things.

You are completely wrong in your physics here. You do not understand MTW's "Gravitation" or any of Wheeler's other books on Space-Time physics. The rest mass m is completely irrelevant to timelike geodesic motion in curved space-time. Even in Newtonian physics

F = ma

F = - GMm/r^2

a = -GM/r^2

The mass m of the ship cancels out of the equation. You do not seem to understand even that? Weight W obeys

W = mg

remember?

g = 0 on a timelike geodesic in curved space-time because of the equivalence principle (LC) = 0 in the LIF. Remember? m does not change. e/m does not change.

The whole point of metric engineering is to change the shape of the timelike geodesic that the ship is on from the ship itself (e.g. Alcubierre). If you change the rest masses of the constituents of the ship, which you can do in principle by changing the Higgs vacuum order parameter amplitude, you destroy the ship - and maybe the whole universe!

Warp drive does not require the "the manipulation of the masses of things" that is a deep misunderstanding. It is not true of Alcubierre's solution. Jim does not seem to understand Einstein's general relativity here. Metric engineering is the direct control of the timelike geodesic structure of the local geometrodynamic field guv(x) at the ship itself from the ship. The rest mass m of the ship is completely irrelevant. Motion of the center of mass of a complex object on a timelike geodesic without rotation about the center of mass is continuously "weightless", but the rest inertia m of parts of the object are still present obviously as is common experience in the Space Shuttle.

The Russians and Chinese are actively pursuing this line of inquiry
as are the Indians allegedly at the Tata Institute primarily.

I am using the modern local frame-invariant Cartan forms math that is
in Rovelli's "Quantum Gravity" book, in John Baez's "Gravity, Gauge,
Knots" book, and in the appendices of Sean Carroll's new text book.

Gennady is using the more cumbersome old-fashioned tensor indices
method historically used by Einstein. The algebra is much simpler in
the Cartan forms language but the results should be essentially the
same.

I am also using the local gauge invariance principle that Gennady
does not use explicitly. In addition to that I introduce spontaneous
symmetry breakdown of the physical vacuum in which the Einstein-
Cartan tetrad field is proportional to the "gradient" of the local
macro-quantum coherent "supersolid" phase of the vacuum itself.
I smoothly join this to the standard model's Higgs field mechanism
for the origin of the inertia of leptons and quarks via the Yukawa
coupling. None of this "subspace" or "substratum" physics is in
Gennady's low-energy semi-phenomenological effective c-number field
theory approach historically used by Einstein 100 years ago before
the modern physics was even developed.

In my book "A Theory of Physical Vacuum ", which has appeared at you
library in 2000, I use formalism of external differential forms (pp. 194-196).. Look attentively, or look the attachment and my website http://www.shipov.com

But to receive a solution of the vacuum equations , index record is

Dear Jack!

Let's make an agreement about what the torsion field is .

1. I work with the manifold of oriented points, instead of the points
manifold of Riemann geometry.




Jack Sarfatti

My way of saying the above is locally gauge the 10-parameter Poincare
group of global special relativity to get a 10-dimensional manifold
for the configuration space of the "point" test particle. That is, we
have 6 additional local scalar fields one for each element of the Lie
algebra of the local Lorentz group O(1,3). These scalar fields form
the elements of the antisymmetric Diff(4) tensor torsion 2-form

T(x) = T(x)uvdx^u/\dx^v = De(x) = de(x) + W(x)/\e(x)

D = d + W(x)/
is the Diff(4) covariant exterior derivative, /\ is Cartan's exterior
product

Diff(4) is locally gauged T4

The Poincare group is T4*O(1,3)

Tuv(x) = (hG/c^3)arg(Vacuum ODLRO)[,u,v]

,u is ordinary partial derivative, [ ] is the antisymmetric commutator

Torsion means that the mixed 2nd-order partial derivatives of the
mean Goldstone phase of the local physical vacuum (post-inflation)
order parameter are not equal, e.g. Hagen Kleinert's "multi-valued
gauge transformations", "Dirac strings", Michael Berry's "phase
singularities", Abrikosov's "branch cut phase jumps" for lattices of
magnetic vortices in Type II superconductors (ref. "Topological
Quantum Mechanics" David Thouless).

e(x) = Einstein-Cartan 1-form tetrad field.

W(x) = Spin-connection equivalent to the Levi-Civita connection.

e(x)' = e(x) + S(x) = 1 + B(x) + S(x)

B(x) is the compensating 1-form tidal geodesic deviation curvature
gauge potential from locally gauging T4 to Diff(4).

S(x) is the compensating 1-form torsion gauge potential from locally
gauging O(1,3) to what for now I will call O*(1,3).

By DEFINITION

De(x) = de(x) + W(x)/\e(x) = 0

Therefore B(x) determines W(x).

T(x) = D'e'(x) = dS(x) + W(x)/\S(x) + S(x)/\(1 + B(x) + S(x))

Where D' = D + S(x)/
when S(x) = 0 then T(x) = 0

Therefore, the torsion 2-form T(x) depends on both the curvature W(x)
spin connection and the torsion potential S(x).

The Einstein-Hilbert action density is the 4-form

R(x)/\e(x)/\e(x) + /\zpfe(x)/\e(x)/\e(x)/\e(x)

where the curvature 2-form is

R(x) = DW(x) = dW(x) + W(x)/\W(x)

Einstein's exotic vacuum field equation from the action principle is
the 3-form equation

R(x)/\e(x) + /\zpfe(x)/\e(x)/\e(x) = 0

However, the Bianchi identities are

DR(x) = 0

But we also have

De(x) = 0

Therefore, obviously /\zpf must be a true constant when S(x) = 0.

This all changes when we have S(x) =/= 0

Define

R'(x) = D'(W(x) + S(x)) = dW(x) + dS(x) + (W(x) + S(x))/\(W(x) + S(x))

The new Bianchi identity is

D'R'(x) = 0

Note, that in ordinary 1915 GR where S(x) = 0

DR(x) = 0 (Diff(4) analog of Maxwell's U(1) dF = 0)

D*R(x) = *J(x) (Diff(4) analog of Maxwell's U(1) d*F = *J)

* = Hodge dual

Local conservation of stress-energy current densities is

D^2R(x) = D*J(x) = 0 (Diff(4) analog of Maxwell's U(1) d^2*F = d*J = 0)

Absolute parallelism means, obviously

R'(x) = 0





Shipov wrote: "2. On the manifold of oriented points the geometry absolute
parallelism ,which possesses Ricci torsion Omega^i_jk (object anholomomity on
Schouten) is set."




Jack Sarfatti

I do not know that old cumbersome formalism. I prefer the above more
elegant simpler more powerful formalism because I am definitely a
"Lazy Dog" from the "Olympia Academy." ;-)




Shipov: "3. I name as a torsion field Ricci rotational coefficients
T^i_jk, which represent contorsion tensor of spaces of absolute parallelism."




In Cartan language

Tuv = Tuv^a&a

&a is a co-form vector field basis in the tangent space.

You can then write

Tuv^w = Tuv^ae'^wa

I use u,v,w for 0,1,2,3 in base space and i,j,l = 1,2,3 in a
spacelike slice 3-geometry.




Shipov: "4.The geometry of absolute parallelism can be set by localization of
non-uniform Lorentz group (or Poincare's group)."




I need to see your equations for that to understand your words. "Localization" is what I mean by "locally gauging."




Shipov: "5.Torsion field in my theory describes inertial properties of mass.
Operating by torsion fields, it is possible to change inertial mass of an object."




Jack Sarfatti

Why change it? It's very dangerous to change inertial mass because
then you change e/m ratios and as shown by Barrow & Tipler, by Paul
Davies, by Martin Rees et-al, you destroy matter in a huge WMD
explosion that can even destroy our entire universe. See, for
example, "Our Final Hour" Chapter 11 by Sir Martin Rees. My idea is
to leave m alone and simply change the shape of the local timelike
geodesic glide path as I tried to explain to James Woodward in the
previous message. Indeed you can change it by changing the intensity
of the Higgs field on the scale of 1-fermi but we want to avoid doing
so at all costs or else we will destroy the entire universe. That's a
good enough reason for ET to be here to make sure we do not destroy
them too!







Gennady Shipov
"I have shown in my work that to change inertial rest mass it is possible,
having created rotation of masses and having received (as result) not
compensated forces of inertia inside of the system

See my work on http://www.trinitas.ru "



Are you changing the inertial mass or have you changed the shape of the geodesic? -- is the the question here.






Shipov: "6.Torsion fields create local Riemann curvature of space, therefore operating by torsion fields, it is possible to operate by local Riemann curvature and thus to carry out weightless or inertialess. Jack, from my point of view you are right both as in my theory weightless and inertialess is the same."




Jack Sarfatti

What I mean by "weightless" is simply (LC) ~ 0 for the occupants of
the ship, i.e. no g-forces felt inside the ship in a dog fight. The
UFO makes sharp turns at tremendous speeds that would rip a jet
fighter apart from the g-force yet inside the crew is effectively
"standing still" weightless in free float. It's the idea of the
Alcubierre warp drive solution taken to the next step of finesse.






Gennady Shipov: "In my theory I mean by "weightless" compensation of gravitational forces by forces of inertia. Yes, in Einsten's theory it is simply (LC) ~ 0."

Woodward above says m = 0 on the geodesic with g =/= 0 - that is

In GR g ~ c^2(LC)^i00

I am talking about metric engineering, i.e. shaping the

ET to Professor Woodward ;-):

The basic equation is

Guv + /\zpfguv = 0

By manipulating /\zpf with phase-locking to the vacuum phase,

^-1 cos(Vacuum Phase(x) - Control Phase(x))







Vacuum Phase(x) - Control Phase(x) = 2pi(Trapped flux at x/
Quantum of flux)







you shape the local geodesic path of the ship as desired.
That's what metric engineering means. I think even Hal Puthoff
and Eric Davis understand that much? At least I hope so. To get
more technical for everyone else. Woodward is stuck in the the
test particle approximation in which the weightless geodesic
motion of a ship cannot be changed by the ship itself. That is,
the ship is a test particle that receives its marching orders
from spacetime, but does not directly change the shape of space-
time in its immediate vicinity. Warp drive changes all that!

My math is quite solid. I mean my proof that you cannot have
weightless warp drive without the torsion field in the sense of


the Moscow physicist Gennady Shipov. That is, without
Shipov's torsion, the residual zero point vacuum dark energy
density field proportional to /\zpf cannot vary in space and
time because of the 1915 GR Bianchi identities. Every
physicist in the field will agree with that much. The good
data on UFOs shows the reality of the torsion fields. No Paul
Hill "acceleration field" without torsion fields.

The curved part of the tetrad field B ~ (hG/c^3)^1/2@(x)^a(Pa/
ih) where {Pa/ih} is the Lie algebra of T4 and @(x)^a are the 4
space-time dependent phases from the local gauging of T4 -> Diff(4).
Similarly for the torsion 2-form T ~ (hG/c^3)@(x)^a^bSab
where {Sab} is the Lie algebra of O(1,3) and @(x)^a^b are the 6 space-time
dependent phases of the local gauging of O(1,3).

Also

B = Budx^u is a dimensionless 1-form for the curved part of the
Einstein-Cartan tetrad

Bu = Bu^a&a

T = Tuvdx^u/\dx^v

Tuv = Tuv^a&a

{&a} is the basis of 1-co-forms (tangent vectors) in the
tangent space

{dx^u} is the basis of 1-forms in the base space

The Einstein-Cartan tetrad field is

e' = e + S

e = 1 + B

B = (hG/c^3)d(Goldstone Phase of Vacuum ODLRO Higgs Field)

S is the torsion 1-form and the problem is to find its
relation to the torsion 2-form

T = D'e' = de' + (W + S)/\e'

d1 = 0

W is the torsion-free spin connection of 1915 GR that is
completely determined from B.

T = dB + dS + (W + S)/\(1 + B + S)

However by definition

dB + W/\(1 + B) = 0

Therefore, the basic curvature-torsion equation is

T = dS + W/\S + S/\(1 + B + S)

OK, I think I now have the correct formula.

Recall that 1915 GR is simply the EEP

guv(curved) = (Iu^a + B(x)u^a)nab(flat)(Iv^b + B(x)v^b)

ABSTRACT
Highly localized nuclear activation in electrochemical
systems and other electrical discharge processes have
been
observed by many laboratories in the world. This
report is
an attempt to explain such anomalous phenomena by using
torsion field theory and axion model. Anisotopic
behaviours
of radiation products, burst character, "heat after
death"
of excess energy release in electrical discharge
systems are
considered to be interpreted by the torsion coherence of
vortex dynamics with the zero point energy induced by
localized intense field emission of micro-protrusion ofthe
cathode, and the dynamic Casimir effect of transient
evolution of triple region of gas, liquid solution, and
electrode protrusion. Axion model and Primakoff's
effect are
proposed for explanation of nuclear transmutation without
noticeable gamma radiation."




These allegations cannot be checked without the
mathematics. Briefly here is the real story in terms of
mainstream physics. We use the elegant local frame
invariant Einstein-Cartan exterior differential forms
mathematics for the tetrad gravity field that is the
"square root" of Einstein's 1915
symmetric metric tensor field. The tetrad technique is
analogous to the Dirac "square root" of the quantum
Klein- Gordon equation. Note that the metric is the anti-
commutator of the Dirac matrices and Einstein's curved
space-time geometrodynamic field guv is a symmetric
bilinear form in the Einstein-Cartan tetrad 1-form field
e where

e = 1 + B

When B = 0 we have globally flat Minkowski space-time.
According to the local equivalence principle there is
no real gravity (i.e. geodesic deviation tidal
curvature) in that limit. Technically B is the
compensating gauge potential when global T4 of special
relativity is replaced by local Diff(4). In addition
using the charge neutral Vacuum ODLRO VEV Higgs-
Goldstone field for the spontaneous breakdown of SU(2)
hypercharge in the standard model we can write

B = (hG/c^3)^1/2d(Mean Goldstone Phase)

Goldstone Phase is a 0-form

No gravity & no inertia when h = 0 or 1/c = 0 even when
G =/= 0.
Gravity and inertia are emergent "More is different" (P.W.
Anderson) properties of the spontaneous breakdown of SU(2)
hypercharge symmetry in the physical vacuum consistent
with
the Standard Model explanation for inertia of quarks
and leptons.








d is the Cartan exterior derivative, and we use the mean
Goldstone Phase averaged over the internal indices of
non- abelian SU(2).

The d^2 = 0 rule is suspended due to non-trivial multiply-
connected manifold cohomology in physical space and in VEV
local order parameter space. I call this "Flux without
flux"







BTW like Wheeler's "Charge without charge". In Wheeler-
Feynman theory the gauge force connections are dynamically
redundant and are replaced by the source fields with
advanced
light cone propagators. See Hoyle & Narlikar for1915 GR
version of Wheeler- Feynman elimination of the EM field for
the gravity case. Whether this 1940 classical idea
survives
the transition to quantum field theory is an open
question of
course.

Ref. John Baez, Gravity & Knots
Hagen Kleinert on "multi-valued gauge transformations"
Michael Berry "phase singularities"
Dirac Strings
Abrikosov phase jump branch cuts in physical space in
Type II
superconducting magnetic vortex lattices

Therefore

F = dB =/= 0

If this were U(1) Maxwell EM field theory, the 4 Maxwell
equations would be in 2-lines

dF = 0 (metric independent - Faraday induction & no
magnetic








monopoles laws)

d*F = *J (metric/constitutive material-dependent
Ampere's & Gauss's laws)

* = Hodge dual p-form to N - p form in N-dim space-time.

hence

*d*F = J = current density 1-form

Local current density conservation is

d^2d*F = d*J = 0

Transition to gravity, i.e. General Relativity

W = spin connection

The Gennady Shipov torsion 2-form is

T = De = de + W/\e = dB + W/\(1 + B)

In 1915 GR

T = 0 , therefore W is determined completely by B.

In Gennady Shipov's theory O(1,3) is also locally gauged
to give T =/ = 0, so now W depends on both B & T.

What is the torsion connection 1-form S?

If we use S = *dT we get

e' = e + S = 1 + B + S

Only use e to get EEP

guv = (1u^I + Bu^I)nIJ(1v^J + Bv^J) ?

If we use S = *DT we seem to get an infinite regress for
W in terms of B & S.

Locally gauging entire Poincare group of 1905 SR gives
Shipov's 10D "oriented point", which is essentially D3
BRANE theory BTW!

Finally the curvature 2-Form is

R = DW = dW + W/\W

Why the torsion field is needed.

In 1915 GR the Bianchi identities using the zero torsion
tetrad





e = 1 + B

give

DR = 0

analogous to

d*J = 0 in EM

Einstein's exotic dark energy vacuum field equation is

R/\e + /\zpfe/\e/\e = 0 as a 3-form equation.

This implies that

D/\zpf = d/\zpf = 0

/\zpf is a 0-form

with

De = 0

i.e. /\zpf is a constant.

When we add torsion we get

D' = d + W/\ + S/
with

D'R = 0

Therefore

DR =/= 0

hence

d/\zpf =/= 0

in presence of a torsion field.

The zero point dark energy-stress tensor is

tuv(zpf) = (c^4/8piG*)/\zpfguv

/\zpf > 0 is repulsive dark energy of negative vacuum
pressure (blue shift)

/\zpf < 0 is attractive dark matter (mis-named) of
positive vacuum pressure (red shift)

/\zpf ~ (vacuum coherence length)^-1(anyon condensate
coherence length)^-1cos(Vacuum Phase - Anyon Phase)

This permits low power practical metric engineering of
WEIGHTLESS Warp and Wormhole.

All the numerical PV estimates of Puthoff, Davis & Co
are completely irrelevant. No USG money should be spent
on high power laser bending of space-time - much too
small. No Bang a mere Whimper for a Big Buck! Waste of
tax money.
