The 0 Axis and the Fifth Dimension


Abstract
             

We strive to understand by using mathematical tools the phenomena where the observer can interpret simultaneously opposite situations, such as the two interpretations of the Necker cube. We present a new coordinate system that draws a distinction between -0 to +0. The central theorem is that when divisions and multiplications of 0 are combined with the real numbers, the Mobius strip provides a model for non-standard analysis. We suggest also that the axis 0 is the fifth dimension extension of the quaternions.
