| dc.description | The longitudinal Doppler shift is a measure of hyperbolic distance. Transformations of uniform motion are determined by the Doppler shift, while its square root transforms to a uniformly accelerated frame. A time-velocity space metric is derived, by magnifying the Beltrami coordinates with the geometric time, which is similar to the one obtained by Friedmann using Einstein's equations in which the mass tensor describes a universe of dust at zero pressure. No such assumption nor any approximation in which the coordinates increase with time (i.e., constant velocities) need be made. The hyperbolic velocities are related to the sides of a Lambert quadrilateral. In the limit when the acute angle becomes an ideal point, the case of uniform acceleration arises. The relations to Hubble's law, and to the exponential red shift, are discussed. | |
