(3) : Now we assume: \(\mu _{1}(t)=\frac{\rho \mathbbm {T}}{\alpha + \mathbbm {T}} - {\mathcal {C}}_{1}\mathbbm {T} -{\mathcal {D}}_{1}\) and \(\mu _{2}(t)={\mathcal {S}}\) By applying Integrating factor concept we arrive at: the Solution of the above equation becomes: it can easily be shown that \(\mathbbm {T}(t)\) is also positive for all time \(t>0\) For any two functions \(\mathbbm {{E}}_m(t)\) and \(\mathbbm {{E}}(t)\) defined within a Banach space the approximate solution of the fractional model approaches its exact solution with the constant \(\mathbbm {C}\) is confined to the interval \((0,1)\) Consider the sequence of partial sums \(\{\mathbbm {S}_m\}\) We need to demonstrate that \({\mathcal {S}}_m\) forms a Cauchy sequence in the Banach space for the partial sums \(\mathbbm {S}_m\) and \(\mathbbm {S}_n\) with \(m \ge n\) and \(m applying the triangle inequality results in: After substituting (10) in (11) we get: thus it gives \(1- \mathbbm {C}^{m-n} < 1\) \(\mathbbm {E}_0\) is already bounded therefore Equation (14) demonstrates that \(\mathbbm {S}_m\) is a Cauchy sequence within a Banach space This property is significant because it confirms the convergence and stability of the He-Laplace algorithm the Cauchy criterion asserts that for any specified level of accuracy there exists an index beyond which all terms of the sequence remain arbitrarily close to one another this finding not only strengthens the mathematical foundation of the algorithm but also ensures that it will yield stable and consistent results as m approaches infinity The proposed methodology for the solution and analysis in this study is He-Laplace algorithm which brings together an integration of Homotopy perturbation method along with Laplace transform in order to create a more efficient and effective way of tackling complex fractional systems The Laplace definition of Caputo fractional derivatives is also applied on the Fractional part whereas the non-fractional part utilizes the traditional Laplace transform method time fractional system of ordinary differential equations of the following form: where the unknown functions \({\mathcal {T}}(t)\) and \({\mathcal {E}}(t)\) are depending on time only and the time fractional derivative here is \({\mathbbm {D}}_t^\beta\) and \(g_{1}(t)\) The fractional parameter is \(\beta\) and \({\mathcal {L}}\) and \({\mathcal {N}}\) here represent the linear and non linear operators respectively and \(\xi _{1}\) \(\xi _{2}\) are random constants in each equation The Algorithm begins by applying Laplace Transform \(\mathbbm {L}\) on (15) by which we obtain: By applying the fundamental definitions provided in Sect. 2, we can determine the Laplace transform of the fractional derivative. Definition 2 provides: where \({\mathcal {T}}_{0}(t)\) and \({\mathcal {E}}_{0}(t)\) are the initial guesses By using Taylor series expansion of \({\mathcal {T}}(t)\) and \({\mathcal {E}}(t)\) with respect to s gives rise to: After substituting Eq. (21) in homotopy Eqs. (19) and (20) and comparing similar coefficients of s we obtain the first order problems at \(s^{1}\) as follows: Application of the Inverse Laplace transform leads to: The \(k^{th}\) order problems at \(s^{k}\) is given by: Operating the Inverse Laplace Transform on above problems leads to \(k^{th}\) order solution accordingly The approximate solution of the given general time-fractional ODE system is: In certain instances and under some conditions we come across highly non-linear differential equations comprising of exponential trigonometric and non-trigonometric terms which make it rather difficult to solve such problems using the readily available methods in literature He-Laplace tends to acquire series form solutions which are worthy alternatives to closed form solutions A complete step by step procedure for the application of He-Laplace on any system of FDE will be provided in our next section When considering differential equations in a fractional framework attaining an exact solution is mostly not possible therefore comes the need to solve such complex fractional systems by using various kinds of numerical solutions He-Laplace technique has been applied to the above system of FDEs to solve the model equations and to make an articulate and logistical analysis Consider the cancer model as Eqs. (3) and (4) and applying Laplace Transform and also by utilizing definition 2 Now creating homotopies for our fractional system by using the concept of Taylor series expansion we arrive at the following form for both the Effector and Tumor cells as shown below: where the conditions in  5 are used as the initial approximations or the zeroth order solution Now, by using Taylor series expansions from (29) and (30),we substitute them back into homotopy Eqs. (28) Now comparing coefficients for different powers of ’p’ will subsequently produce various order problems or equations: Applying Inverse Laplace transform gives rise to the following first order solution: applying Inverse Laplace Transform leads to the following second order solution: higher-order problems and solutions can be attained The final series form approximate solution of the above system of cancer-tumor model is given by Eq. (33) for both the Effector and Tumor cells respectively. Initially, we begin by studying the effect of fractional order on the cancer-tumor model: Impact of different values of fractional order \(\beta\) Further, we see the impact that the flow rate of immune cells into the site of cancer tumor has on the entire model as well. \({\mathcal {S}}\) is defined as the regular rate of flow of the immune cells into the tumor site. Effect of Regular rate of flow of immune cells into tumor site \({\mathcal {S}}\) on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.9\) Figure 2 shows the effect of the rate of flow of the immune cells into the tumor site on the model under examination In this particular instance the value of \(\beta\) has been taken to be 0.9 to examine the exact impact that \({\mathcal {S}}\) has on the entire system The values of \({\mathcal {S}}\) have been taken in an increasing order from \({\mathcal {S}}=0.8\times 10^{4}\) to \({\mathcal {S}}=1.2\times 10^{4}\) which depicts that we are increasing the flow rate of immune cells entering the tumor site at any time t there can be seen an increment of effector cellls and as synchronous decrease of tumor cells The reason being that more amount of immune cells have been introduced into the body so the strength of a person’s immune system has increased and consequently it can be estimated that higher the flow rate of immune cells the lesser the growth of tumor cells and the more the number of effector cells in the body Effect of recruitment rate of immune cells \(\rho\) on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.8\) Effect of recruitment rate of immune cells \({\mathcal {C}}_{1}\) on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.8\). Effect of killing rate of tumor cells by immune cells \({\mathcal {C}}_{2}\) on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.9\) as the killing rate of a specified small portion of tumor cells rises the overall effector cells profile also seems to be showing an increasing behavior the Overall tumor profile does not have much impact on the smaller portion of tumor cells being killed the reason is that the number of tumor cells killed might be very little as compared to the overall number of tumor cells present in the body their effect is very little or negligible when viewed as bigger picture the impact of death rate of fractional cells by immune cells shows an interesting yet unpredictable behavior overall Effect of killing rate of tumor cells by immune cells \({\mathcal {D}}_{1}\) on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.8\) Effect of Immune cells attraction coefficient \(\alpha\) on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.8\) Effect of Intrinsic growth rate r on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.9\) Effect of Carrying Capacity Inverse b on Cancer Model while taking \(\beta =0.99\). It is seen that increase in time and \(\beta\) when this cancer model using immunotherapy is applied effector immune cells will eventually increase and the cancer tumor cells will consequently decline in number In all of the above Figs. from 10a to 11i displayed with the varying parameters in our cancer model it can be seen that effector cells seem to be aligned with the paramters positively impacting immune cells whereas tumor cells seem to be decreasing with all parameters causing a decrease in cancerous cells in the body This cancer model works most effectively when applied on a person when they are in the initial stages of cancer since immunotherapy is one of the initial treatments applied where cancer is not too strong and this therapy can be applied so as to stop it from spreading to other body parts where more complex treatments would be required While we have optimized our current comprehensive numerical and graphical study to accurately represent the cancer treatment model The parameters utilized in the model may not account for all variations present in biological systems because cancer as mentioned earlier is in itself yet a mystery to be solved tried to capture this cancer model as efficiently as possible as explained and displayed in detail through our 2D and 3D plots the findings of which in itself justify the study Contour Analysis of cancer cells against fractional parameter. Contour plotting of cancer cells against logistic growth rate The primary goal of this study was to develop a new solution for fractional cancer immunotherapy model using the He-Laplace procedure and to analyze the results By applying a mixed algorithm of the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) and the Laplace transform we obtained a series solution for a nonlinear system of fractional differential equations (FDEs) We focused on two solutions: effector and tumor cell dynamics evaluated through detailed graphical analysis across nine parameters Our findings indicate that varying the fractional parameter \(\beta\) led to an increase in effector cells and a decrease in tumor cells highlighting the effectiveness of the fractional approach Increases in the rates of immune cell flow to the tumor site and rate of immune cells killing fractional tumor cells correlated with rising effector counts and declining tumor numbers carrying capacity parameters and logistic growth factors contributed to tumor growth and effector decline Comprehensive 3D and contour analyses reinforced the model’s effectiveness in depicting cancer-tumor interactions supporting the notion that immunotherapy is a powerful treatment strategy we aim to correlate our simulations with real data to enhance their relevance to real-world scenarios and deepen our understanding of cancer treatment complexities our

Volume 15 - 2021 | https://doi.org/10.3389/fnhum.2021.736761 Recent attempts to establish the quantum boundaries of life is pursued A pre-existing view of quantum biology is supplemented by the formulation of modern advances in theoretical chemical physics and quantum chemistry The extension to open system dynamics entails a self-referential amplification supporting the signature of life as well as consciousness via long-range correlative information The associated negentropic coherence permeates hierarchical and functional organization at multiple levels In this communication we will derive and review one of the most important mathematical tools the combined use of the Fourier- and the Laplace transform It is shown that an underlying operator algebra facilitates the formulation of the conjugate relationship between energy-time and momentum-space Implications from augmented general dilation analytic operator families provide novel information-based representations and yield which are required to support the quantum Darwinian view of life such as the actual relevancy of the adiabatic approximation and the conceived remnant of residual quantum superpositions in the enveloping hot and wet environment of the brain there seems to be no proof that any neural activity is sufficient for consciousness where S is the entropy of an open system such as the brain Elaborating on a thermodynamical quantum picture with the system immune against decoherence one is able to derive the transition density matrix in terms of the phase-locked quantum states {ψk};k = 1,2,n, where ρtr is a steady state solution of the Liouville equation fixed at appropriate temperatures and time scales (Brändas, 2019, 2021). The quantum nature of the formulation proves that the logical possibilities of philosophical zombies should be ruled out by the no-cloning theorem (Wotters and Zurek, 1982) Note that the associated matrix representation in the basis |ψ⟩ results in the nilpotent matrix J with the consequences that the resolvent of the degenerate Hamiltonian that builds the Liouvillian, exhibits a higher order pole of dimension n with the result that the related propagator generates a polynomial-delayed evolution exhibiting Poissonian characteristics (Brändas, 2019) The theory of the Fourier Transform provides an enormous field (see e.g., Reed and Simon, 1978), or the fundamental, historical and practical treatments reviewed by Lützen (1982) Our intention is not to supply another review of the subject rather we will start at a very simple level to prepare an overall idea that includes generalizations to complex mappings between Cauchy representations of meromorphic functions and finally involving the representation of a certain family of non-normal operators Let us take the usual model of the transform between the correlation function g(t) and its transform f(ω) (assuming standard existence conditions for the integrals) where for simplicity one might associate t with time and ω with frequency (ℏ = 1) In its discrete form on a finite interval one finds the connection with the standard Fourier series in harmonic analysis Note also that the Laplace transform can be obtained by replacing integration intervals and variables accordingly (β > 0) We will later combine variables and intervals into a suitable Fourier-Laplace transform in order to derive and analyze general relations between propagators and resolvents Note that a direct inversion of the function f(ω) ≡ 1 ensues from the δ-function representation Let us first consider a simple extension of the frequency ω (or energy) to the field of complex numbers z and consider the integral where the contour C for instance can be chosen (−∞, + ∞) to recover the Fourier relations above. Choosing C to run from 0 to + ∞, with it = β one recovers the Laplace transform. In order to see how these two transforms will combine we will first study the case, cf. the work of Carleman (1944) discussed and emphasized in Lützen (1982) where below Θ(±t) is the Heaviside step function being zero for negative- and one for positive arguments where the contour C+, is depicted in Figure 1 and C− correspondingly running counter clockwise below the real axis and closed in the upper halfplane assuming appropriate convergence conditions and univocally by the limit R→∞ The contour C+ displayed as the finite interval [−R + R] at a finite distance ε above the real axis the integral can be simply evaluated as the sum of residues of the poles of the actual function inside C+ + CR with z = ω + iε,ε > 0 yielding a result independent of ε > 0 Next, we prove the remaining relation of Eq. (1), by considering the integral with the contour as displayed in Figure 1, with t,δ > 0, using the residue theorem (Ahlfors, 1979) One realizes that closing the contour in the lower complex halfplane leads to with C = C+ + CR and letting R→∞ In ascertaining the last relation we have utilized the following estimates applying the standard change of variables and omitting the details in the next two terms the first term vanishes since sin⁡θ is negative in [−π < θ < 0] sin⁡θ≈θ that the second term vanishes Performing a similar analysis for C− and z = E−iδ the proof of Eq Taking the time derivative one formally gets the Fourier relations between the unit- and the delta function which under appropriate circumstances represents distributions working on functions being properly bounded on respective complex halfplanes In Eq. (2) the contour C means C+ for t > 0 and C− for t < 0. Replacing z→(z−H) gives trivially the formal relations (3) below, if H is a real constant. The question is what happens when H becomes an operator with a spectral representation as indicated in Figure 2 This begs a clarification, since so-called complex resonance eigenvalues have been added to the spectral classification (Balslev and Combes, 1971) but first we will treat the case of a self-adjoint operator H with a real spectrum Here all the bound states pile together at the origin while the associated resonances fall down on the negative imaginary axis the extension to represent operators and their associated Fourier relations follow unambiguously Consider first the retarded-advanced propagator GP±⁢(t) and its resolvent GR(z) comprising the various general situations encountered in quantum chemistry and chemical physics The rationale of this observation will be clear further below With the operator H exhibiting the spectral expansion, for an extension to the Liouville picture (see Obcemea and Brändas, 1983) with the spectral measure μ(E) simply defined from resolution of the identity I in terms of the eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian {ψk,ψ(ω)} with ⟨ψk|ψl⟩ = δkl ⟨ψk|ψ(ω)⟩ = 0 and ⟨ψ(ω)|ψ(ω′)⟩ = δ(ω−ω′) spanning the actual Hilbert space The spectral measure is here accompanied by a spectral function displaying steps at the discrete points in σP(H) and exhibiting a locally integrable function in the continuum one needs to know what happens at the boundary where the limits from each halfplane meet Introducing the explicit operator representations one gets Anticipating complex resonance eigenvalues (Balslev and Combes, 1971, see Figure 2) one realizes that the spectral contour must also be extended to the complex z-plane while observing that analyticity requirements of the Greens function being regular in the upper complex half plane sets up mathematical requirements for analytic continuations into the lower half plane and vice versa for the other half We will return to these conditions and its consequences below In order to turn the abstract operator representations above into a more concrete functional relation we introduce a suitable normalized reference function From ⟨φ|φ⟩1 follows where we have introduced the Stieltjes integral via the spectral function ρ with jumps |ck|2 at the points ωk of σP and represented by the continuous function |c(ω)|2 at σAC The operator relations above can now be represented as In order to study the spectral function in more detail we will consider the integral below at a point E in σAC Taking the limit ε→0 + 0 one obtains where 𝒫 denotes the Cauchy principal value of the integral signifies a so-called Kramers-Kronig relation employed to relate the real and imaginary parts of a complex function such as a physical response function or an electric susceptibility Note that the interesting information comes from the evaluation of the function |c(ω)|2 as it is defined in σAC while the jumps are determined by |ck|2 above A simple proof of the relation involving the imaginary part of (8) follows from the simple fact that which can be derived as follows. Consider a general function f(x), which decays appropriately in the complex plane (see Figure 1) If C is a contour running from −R to + R and closed in the upper half plane with an analogous result obtained if the contour runs in the lower half plane The result involves the following limiting procedure of the integral over CR The other limit ε→0−0 follows Symbolically one can now write the general operator equations corresponding to the retarded-advanced propagator defined in Eq These operator representations are related through the Fourier transforms Eq The step from functions to operators have been reduced to a technicality in terms of an appropriately defined spectral function Since we have separated the retarded and advanced parts one is able to transverse the complex plane under straightforward assumptions of asymptotically decaying functions in the appropriate complex halfplanes Finally we note that the so-called causal Greens function can be written G=+i⁢GP+⁢(t)-i⁢GP-⁢(t)=e-i⁢H⁢t Summarizing we have derived the following Fourier transforms between the propagator GP(t) and the resolvent GR(z) where the retarded-advanced form of (9) guarantees that the analyticity requirements referring to the appropriate complex halfplane matching the proper time direction with functional properties relating to each halfplane separately we will refer to the Fourier-Laplace transform in what follows Let us summarize the formulas above and rewrite the Schrödinger equation in a slightly more general form which in its retarded-advanced form contains an inhomogeneous memory term ψ(0) and the time independent Fourier related equation Note that in principle there could be different limits as ψ±(t)t→0 which for E ∈ σAC(H) becomes subjected to the principal value form A portrayal of the simple case of the Hamiltonian black dots on the negative real energy axis rotated −2θ around the origin The contour γ defining the Cauchy representation of f(z) in the case (A) referring to the situation displayed in Eqs 8) and in the case (B) after analytic continuation (C,D) are adapted after the spectral domains in each case Note that the resonance eigenvalue may be complex zi = Ei−iεi with the physical interpretation of the imaginary part εi = ℏ/2τ usually being inversely related to the lifetime τ of the state In order to establish the generalized picture anticipated in Figures 2, 3, we return to the function f(z) defined and represented in Eqs. (7, 8). Using Cauchy’s integral formula, with γ defined in Figures 4A,B below In fact the relations derived above adapt, as pointed out, with minor changes to the situation where the contours C have been adjusted accordingly (Brändas, 1997) there is the difficulty of multiple eigenvalues and their block structure that applies to general non-normal operators those that do not commute with their own adjoints This seriously complicates the matrix problem since it introduces degeneracies associated with irreducible matrix blocks which in its classical canonical form is represented by the unit matrix times the degenerate eigenvalue superimposed on n-dimensional matrix blocks with zeroes along the main diagonal and with the super-diagonal composed of ones creating novel possibilities to map complex enough systems in biology at far from equilibrium situations In principle we have obtained a general Fourier-Laplace relation between the propagator GP±⁢(t) and the resolvent GR(z) as given by Eq The degenerate situation is simply incorporated in the standard self-adjoint picture since the degeneracy of an eigenvalue is trivially characterized by diagonal operators with the degenerate eigenvalue multiplied by the unit operator I represented as a unit matrix in the space spanned by the degenerate eigenfunctions of H Hence for H = EI one obtains directly the formal relationship chosen the contour of the line integral to be the unit circle in the complex plane with the origin at E and running counter clockwise Since we are dealing with dilation analytic operators E could here be complex with a negative imaginary part It is straightforward to translate the result to matrix algebra and carry out the steps with results analogous to Eqs the procedure can in principle be applied to H(η) This begs the question what happens in the general case where multiple degeneracies appear in the resolvent accompanied by irreducible Jordan blocks of corresponding dimensions It is customary to characterize the order of the Jordan blocks of a particular degeneracy by its dimensions with its n-dimensional matrix representation J As a result the corresponding operator J is nilpotent yielding the Segrè characteristic associated with J where α is a complex number given by the nature of the physical problem after expansion of the exponential and the inverse around z = E give where for simplicity we have taken the Segrè characteristic to be n = 2 Note that one should have obtained the same result by mnemonically determine the residue by formally inserting H(η) even if it is a non-normal operator containing a nilpotent part J This is clearly consistent with the original definition and separate evaluation of the resolvent and the propagator which both trivially exhibits finite operator expansions due to the nilpotent property of J (12) in more detail to realize the consequences of the present operator formulation For instance introducing two orthonormal degenerate solutions χ1,χ2 corresponding to the degenerate subspace related to the eigenvalue E of H Returning to the meromorphic function f(z) defined in Eqs where the resolvent has the degenerate structure indicated above Employing again the Fourier-Laplace transformation One general way to identify hidden degeneracies would be to employ the argument principle The correspondence is carried further as it reverberates with a simple operator algebra treatment commensurate with Einstein’s equivalence principle This surprising correlation reflects an intrinsic self-referential characteristic of a living system authorizing degenerate maps as self-organizing units of life forms and evolving organisms and their communication This gives an alternative interpretation of Gödel’s celebrated result that formal axiomatic systems are inherently limited Finally we will present some basic applications that exhibits the relationship between general operator relations formally interpreted as Fourier-Laplace duals suggesting isomorphic connections between material systems and their abstract spatial and temporal evolutions in order to obtain a rigorous extension of quantum dynamics to incorporate a non-self-adjoint formulation The need for these extensions is quite obvious since otherwise there might appear some unexpected results that may sound contradictive One concerns the Feshbach-Fano partitioning in scattering theory second the consequences of the domain restrictions of the scaling operator and the contractive semigroup properties of the generator of time evolution and third the manifestation of Jordan blocks and their significance with the trial wave function Ψ(z) = (I + T(z)H)φ and the bracketing function given by h(z) = ⟨φ|H + HT(z)H|φ⟩ noticing that an eigensolution to the differential equation for z = Eb ∈ σP is obtained from The name “bracketing function” refers to the bracketing property of h(z) inserting an upper bound to Eb in the function yields a lower bound and vice versa Note that Ψ(z) is subject to intermediate normalization and therefore not normalized It is interesting to document what happens when z→E ∈ σAC(H) celebrating the principal value relation discussed in Eq demonstrating that h(E) is now a complex function with a negative imaginary part Summarizing we have h+(E) = E−iε = E−iΓ/2, where Γ is the (Fermi Golden Rule) level width reciprocally related to the life time τ. To find a complex resonance eigenvalue, fulfilling h(εs) = εs = Es−iΓs/2 one needs to solve the equations (Micha and Brändas, 1971) It is straightforward to extend partitioning technique to a reference space of arbitrary high dimensions of square integrable basis functions The Feshbach-Fano method aims at solving the resonance problem by defining the effective operator Heff = OHO + OHT(z)HO where Oprojects onto a given set of square integrable functions Despite its main capabilities there are two major drawbacks as regards the definition of complex resonances on the so-called unphysical Riemann sheet of the complex energy plane They are (i) the resonance should be independent of the choices of O and P (ii) the real and the imaginary parts must be continued analytically to satisfy Eq The Balslev-Combes theorem guarantees a more general spectral classification including the existence of resonances corresponding to the analytic continuations Furthermore higher order poles of the resolvent are intrinsically revealed by the structural properties of the bracketing function h(z) One of the most intricate consequences of the negentropic entanglement is the transformation B that organizes the thermally excited density matrix to its classical canonical form represents a primary thermo-qubit of fundamental physically objective interactions-correlations extends to the genetic cellular machinery and to subjective semiotic communications with semantic content and ultimately to consciousness and human intelligence We have not mentioned Erwin Schrödinger’s early efforts in 1944, comparing life with its quantum molecular information stored in an aperiodic crystal, see the Canto edition (Schrödinger, 1992). The historic development from Lamarck, via Darwin and Schrödinger to Monod (1971), has recently been reviewed by Maruani (2020, 2021) while attempting to find a biological Lagrangian operator to define a suitable fitness functional to reach a consistent evolution functional performing deconvolution using Fourier Transforms the pitch waves built from low-frequency quasi-musical waves being transcriptions of nucleic acid or protein patterns are assigned a higher level informational quality compared to the thermally related oscillations The music of the genes might perhaps in some way correlate with the steady state negentropic coherence of the correlated dissipative structures discussed above the derivation of these coherent structures and their properties has not been at the center of attention here We refer to the personal reference list below for more details Instead our focus has been concentrated on the particularities of the Fourier-Laplace transform the transform relates conjugate observables The adaptation to the underlying structure of linear algebra in concert with rigorous extensions to incorporate non-normal operators and their generalized spectral properties add structural regularity and novel irreducible symmetries to the formulation The Fourier-Laplace resolvent-propagator relationship simplifies to mnemotechnic algebraic reductions mirroring their conjoined spectral representations commensurate with their original conjugate connection as detailed earlier earlier in the section “The Fourier-Laplace Transform.” dedicated to Sir Karl Popper on account of his ninetieth birthday concludes with an appraisal that the whole of quantum chemistry might consistently be built from four simple axioms subject to a positive definite binary product Even if physical interpretations cannot have a direct physical reality belonging to a more or less “contentless” mathematical structure there is the Gödelian branching point of abstract theories Although not explicitly spelled out in the thesis the possibility of a non-positive definite scalar product and an extension to include Einstein’s theory of relativity is ambient and captivating The
