Nearness through an extra dimension

TL;DR

This paper proposes that our universe as a thin shell in five dimensions could allow near-instantaneous matter connection via the extra dimension, explaining apparent action-at-a-distance as ultrafast communication.

Contribution

It introduces a model where the universe's structure in higher dimensions accounts for instantaneous interactions, offering a new perspective on nonlocal phenomena.

Findings

Matter in a 5D universe can be connected almost instantaneously.

Apparent action-at-a-distance is explained as ultrafast communication through the extra dimension.

The model suggests a geometric basis for nonlocal effects in physics.

Abstract

It is shown that if our visible universe is a thin trapped shell in a five-dimensional universe, all matter in it may be connected almost instantaneously through the fifth dimension. What appears to be action at a distance is then understood as undetectable ultrafast communication.
