Minkowski space


In mathematical physics, Minkowski space or Minkowski spacetime is a combination of Euclidean space and time into a four-dimensional manifold where the spacetime interval between any two events is independent of the inertial frame of reference in which they are recorded. Although initially developed by mathematician Hermann Minkowski for Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism, the mathematical structure of Minkowski spacetime was shown to be an immediate consequence of the postulates of special relativity.
Minkowski space is closely associated with Einstein's theory of special relativity, and is the most common mathematical structure on which special relativity is formulated. While the individual components in Euclidean space and time will often differ due to length contraction and time dilation, in Minkowski spacetime, all frames of reference will agree on the total distance in spacetime between events.〔This makes spacetime distance an invariant.〕 Because it treats time differently than the three spatial dimensions, Minkowski space differs from four-dimensional Euclidean space.〔Minkowski space can be formulated as an equivalent 4-D Euclidean space if you assume time is always an imaginary number. This is how the spacetime was first formulated, but since Minkowski reworked the structure, time is almost always required to be a real number.〕
In Euclidean space, the isometry group (the maps preserving the regular inner product) is the Euclidean group. The analogous isometry group for Minkowski space, preserving intervals of spacetime equipped with the associated non-positive definite bilinear form (here called the Minkowski inner product,〔Consistent use of the term "Minkowski inner product" is intended for the bilinear form here, since it is in widespread use. It is by no means "standard" in the literature, but no such standard seems to exist.〕) is the Poincaré group. The Minkowski inner product is defined as to yield the spacetime interval between two events when given their coordinate difference vector as argument.
