An Advice to the International Association of Scientists

If we ever discover something new, is it not true that we want to let the world know about it, irrespective of what type of discovery it may be?

In the normal course, if it happens to be a scientific discovery — you are expected to submit such discovery to some scientific society in the form of a research paper or publish the details of such discovery in some scientific journal which gets published after getting it peer-reviewed.

But, howsoever good the discovery may be, if you decide to write down about your discoveries in a book form and publish it, instead of submitting them to some scientific forum, there is no guarantee that anybody may buy your book, in which case nobody shall come to know about your discoveries.

Any doubt about it?

There are three ways of getting your book published.

(i) Through internationally well-known publishers but in that case, it depends on them whether to accept or reject your proposal.

(ii) You may pay the commercial publishers the money to cover the cost of printing and enter an agreement for getting some royalty on the sale of the book.

(iii) You may self-publish your book through some agencies such as amazon.com or Lulu. But if you do so — it is not enough to just publish the book. You have to make your book visible also.

Unless you have a big following, your book may not sell and nobody may come to know what you may have discovered.

Even the International Association of Scientists may not bother to buy all such books unless you have some reckoning.

So nobody may come to know about your discoveries irrespective of the quality of your discoveries.

I, too, self-published two such books on amazon.com — one of them with the title “Not One — We have Three Domains of Science” with the following cover page.

And the other book under the title “Revolutionizing Science: Uncovering the Potential of Science’s Untapped Territory”.

I even published some posters of the following type of the second book on social media but to no avail.

It has a quotation of Ada Lovelace on the left side which talks about higher dimensions in mathematics. Though it would let anybody go guessing what sort of higher dimensions of mathematics Ada should have had in her mind, it is not so easy to guess what sort of higher dimensions mathematics may have.

Nonetheless, my book throws light on the type of higher dimensions mathematics may have according to me.

Though it is conventional to show graphically the “a-part of a complex number” along the X-axis and the “ib-part” of a complex number ‘a ± ib’ along the Y-axis, as shown in the following diagram, don’t you think — if we have ‘a ± ib ± jc’ type of complex numbers, we can show the jc-part of such numbers along the Z-axis?

If we may refer to ‘a ± ib’ type of numbers as a two dimensional complex number, can’t we refer to not only ‘a ± ib ± jc’ type of complex numbers as three-dimensional — we may refer to even ‘a ± ib ± jc ± kd’ type of complex numbers as four-dimensional and so on?

But have you ever heard about three-dimensional or four-dimensional complex numbers, anywhere until now?

I have explained in the 6th chapter of this book that in the same way as we use “i” prefix for the square roots of negative numbers, we can use “j” prefix for the cube roots of negative numbers and “k” prefix for the fourth roots of negative numbers, “l” for the fifth roots and so on for further roots of negative numbers ad infinitum.

Does it not explain what she may have visualized as “higher dimensions in mathematics”?

Though it has been known for long that negative numbers may also have third, fourth and sixth roots — it has not occurred to anybody that, if so, it should be possible to use multidimensional complex numbers as well.

DON’T YOU THINK, THE USE OF SUCH NUMBERS CAN THROW OPEN NEW POSSIBILITIES OF SOLVING EVEN MUCH MORE COMPLEX PROBLEMS THAN THE TYPE OF COMPLEX PROBLEMS WE ARE ABLE TO SOLVE UNTIL NOW WITH TWO-DIMENSIONAL COMPLEX NUMBERS?

Actually, I have told about this discovery not only in this book.

I told about it even in the article “Tips for developing more powerful Mathematics” also, which was published on medium.com on January 30, 2023. [1]

Irrespective of what wealth of information this book may contain — is it not true, that all of such information shall just go unnoticed because until now not even a single book has been sold?

THOUGH NOBODY BOUGHT THIS BOOK, DON’T YOU THINK SOME AGENCY SHOULD KEEP TRACK OF WHAT IS WRITTEN EVEN IN SUCH BOOKS INSTEAD OF LETTING THEM GO UNNOTICED?

Some agency should buy such books also and record what had been discovered by someone which nobody cared to know about.

Which agency it could be?

To the best of my knowledge the “International Association of Scientists” may take care of the discoveries made by non-PhDs also because it is not necessary that only PhDs may discover new things — who may describe them in their theses.

The “International Association of Scientists” should safeguard the discoveries made by even non-PhDs just like me.

I am short-listing some other noteworthy discoveries that have been covered by me in this book.

1. Discovery of a better reason which explains why water expands even though nothing else, expands when we cool it — when it is cooled below 4°C up to its freezing point. I have figured out in the 2nd chapter of my book that when water is cooled below 4°C, the adjacent molecules of water dispel each other because the positive poles of its molecules get juxtaposed to the positive poles of the adjacent molecules and the negative poles of its molecules get juxtaposed to the negative of the adjacent molecules due to which they dispel themselves. Naturally, water expands because all molecules dispel their adjacent molecules. Though I have published this discovery in this book, it has also gone unnoticed since nobody has purchased and read this book so far.

2. The discovery that in the same way as some more branches grow on a branch of a tree, we may branch out not only the X-axis into XY-axis and XZ-axis, Y-axis into YX-axis and YZ-axis, Z-axis into ZX-axis and ZY-axis — it is possible to branch out even XY-axis into XYX-axis and XYZ-axis, XZ-axis into XZX-axis and XYZ-axis and so on. Even though I have described such a possibility in the 5th chapter of the same book, it has also gone unnoticed since nobody has purchased and read this book so far as shown in the following diagram.

Though I had taken a breath of sigh after publishing this book thinking yet I had no idea that nobody may buy this book.

SO I MAY SAY — THESE DISCOVERIES HAVE MET THE FATE OF NOTHING BUT “GARBAGE OF A SORT”.

Unfortunately, my following discoveries have also met more or less the same fate.

1. The discovery that multiple levels of relativity exist in the universe, as explained by me in the article titled “Perception of Multiple Levels of Relativity” published by me on December 18, 2023, on medium.com. [2]

2. The discovery that even though we don’t notice all of us are travelling in space at a speed as high as 1027.7 times the speed of sound, as has been projected by me in the article “Whether you know or not — all of us are travelling in space at a speed as high as 1027.7 times the speed of sound” published on medium.com on October 9, 2023. [3]

Though I know that the first book had not been properly formatted, so it has to be reformatted and republished yet content-wise, it is also a reasonably good book.

THOUGH, IT IS TRUE THAT I DID NOT MAKE ANY FRUITFUL EFFORTS TO PROMOTE THESE BOOKS, HAVE I NOT MADE A POINT THAT SOME AGENCY SHOULD KEEP TRACK OF SUCH DISCOVERIES AS WELL?
