The new math has arrived!

Abstract

In accordance with formalism, one of the two most widely accepted foundations for modern mathematics, an experimental axiomatic system having a variant number theory is admissible for study if it is self-consistent.  Nonetheless, any given "revised" system is without exceptional theoretical value or applicability unless it is comparatively advantageous to the "conventional" system.

This unconventional work initially involves the creation of a revised multiplication in which the revised product of two negative factors equals a negative real number, contrary to conventional multiplication.  This precludes the existence of the unit imaginary number and thus, the complex number system.

By a method analogous to how conventional involution is built upon conventional multiplication, likewise is revised involution built upon revised multiplication.  Although addition is identical under both systems, with two of the three binary operations revised, a revised arithmetic exists and consequently, a revised algebra.  Further ramifications include a revised analytic geometry and revised calculus.  In fact, every branch of mathematics which is wholly or partially based upon numerical definitions is affected.

Comparatively, revised arithmetic requires three number systems instead of seven (i.e., no complex or hypercomplex number systems: quaternion, octonion, sedenion) and three binary operations instead of six (i.e., no inverse binary operations: subtraction, division, evolution) yet maintains all comparable problem-solving capabilities.

In revised algebra, a binomial, linear equation to the nth (any) degree is solvable since after revised cross-multiplication, it is reducible to the original, first degree equation.  In conventional algebra, a binomial, linear equation to the fifth degree or higher is generally impossible to derive solutions for.  Through it all, any valid algebraic equation which is solvable by the conventional complex number system is likewise solvable by the revised real number system.

Ultimately, the two numerical systems are fully isomorphic in describing the same underlying mathematical reality as it exists independent of any contrasting, arbitrarily-invented, mathematical languages of interpretation.

 

"Symmetry establishes a ridiculous and wonderful cousinship between objects, phenomena and theories outwardly unrelated:  terrestrial magnetism, women's veils, polarized light, natural selection, the theory of groups, structure of space, vase designs, quantum physics, scarabs, flower petals, X-ray interference patterns, cell division in sea urchins, equilibrium positions of crystals, Romanesque cathedrals, snowflakes, music, the theory of relativity ..."
