Starting from the postulate that the speed of light is constant across all inertial reference frames, Poincaré formulated the Lorentz transformation between two inertial reference frames
However, during the formulation process, Poincaré made errors regarding both mathematical logic and physics, leading to the result k=γ
The main reason is that Poincaré misidentified the timeframe
This results in a distorted flat spacetime.
Einstein applied the Lorentz transformation to the theory of special relativity and concluded that time undergoes dilation and length undergoes contraction.
This error is not significant and does not cause the theory to collapse. However, the mistaken belief that time dilation was the reason Einstein failed to reconcile special relativity with Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism is incorrect.
In addition, it also contributed to the failure of later scientists in their attempts to formulate a unified theory
However, misconceptions and experimental errors masked this mistake for a very long time
In the book *The Universe Is a Unified Object*, author Ngô Quang Hà corrected an error made by Poincaré and calculated the coefficient k=1. With this, the Lorentz transformation became clear and easy to understand
Thus, special relativity achieved a state of near-perfection and no longer violated causality.
The twin paradox, the ladder paradox, and the grandfather paradox are all thoroughly resolved.
