Universal Relativity introduces a unified framework, simplifying the understanding of Special and General Relativity.

This research aims to develop a unified framework for Special and General Relativity using a single scalar field.
Introduced the scalar field δt(x) to represent minimal temporal increments in spacetime.
Distinguished between two types of operations: Type I (local dynamics) and Type II (external constraints).
Reproduced relativistic phenomena without using tensor calculus.
Demonstrated that Special and General Relativity are complementary rather than separate theories.
Reduced computational complexity significantly, facilitating calculations like GPS corrections and gravitational lensing.
Showed that fundamental constants emerge from the operational structure rather than arbitrary choices.

T.O. (2026) studied this question.
