Alright, After taking time to consider I would like to talk briefly about an interesting correlation.
DoctorDick poised a slight alteration to Einstein's:
^2 + (dy)^2 + (dz)^2 + (cd\tau)^2})
If I am not mistaken this is major if considered in conjunction with the Poincare conjecture and Geometrization conjecture. As it would seem this lends itself to a 3-space closed manifold.
Furthermore it can be taken together with the mass conjecture that results (see Doctor Dick's paper above), in which mass is momentum propagating along the

axis. What this results in, if I am not mistaken, and I am no math wiz but none the less what I visualize is a 4 dimensional object "submerged" in a three dimensional space. For moving mass this is a propagating disturbance on the
hypersurface of the 3-space closed manifold. In which case mass is analogous to bump mapping on the hypersurface.
I realize that isn't an easy thing to visualize. So a word on hypersurfaces. A hypersurface is the "surface" of a n dimensional manifold. If you have a 3 dimensional space, a 2-space closed manifold like a sphere, then the surface of the sphere is the sphere's sub manifold and area. If you extend this to a 3-space, then the "surface" is 3 dimensional. the
hypervolume is 4 dimensional.
I would suggest looking into such things independently, as I realize my short comings in mathematics, and so my limitations of expression.
