Coevolution of Quantum Wave Functions and the Friedmann Universe

W. Q. Sumner, D. Y. Sumner

Erwin Schrodinger (1939) proved that quantum wave functions coevolve with the curved spacetime of the Friedmann universe. Schrodinger's derivation explains the Hubble redshift of p…

On the variation of the fine-structure constant in Friedmann Universes

William Q. Sumner

The fine-structure constant alpha does not vary as Friedmann Universes evolve, a conclusion based on assessments of quantum mechanics and electrodynamics. alpha = e^2/(4pi epsilon…

Observational Evidence from Supernovae for a Contracting Universe

William Q. Sumner

New precision in measuring extragalactic distances using supernovae has confirmed with high probability an accelerating increase in redshift with distance. This has been interprete…

Hubble Redshift

W. Q. Sumner, E. E. Vityaev

The dependence of luminosity distance on observed resdhift and the cosmological parameters H and q is derived for a contracting Friedmann universe with no cosmological constant. Th…
