Title: Are the invariance principles really truly Lorentz-covariant?
Abstract: It is shown that some sections of the invariance (or symmetry) principles, such as the space reversal symmetry (or parityP) and time reversal symmetryT (of elementary particle and condensed matter physics, etc.), are not really truly Lorentz covariant and hence are dependent on the chosen inertial frame; while the world parity or the proper parityW (i.e., the spacetime reversal symmetryPT) is a truly Lorentz covariant concept, the same for all inertial observers. The basic reason for this is that in theMinkowskian space-time continuum frames of special relativity (in contrast to the space and time frames) one cannot change either space or time keeping the other one fixed and also maintain the causality requirements that all world space mappings should be timelike. Indeed, I find that the Dirac-Wigner and Lee-Yang, etc. sense of Lorentz invarianceis not in full compliance with the Einstein-Minkowskirequirements of the Lorentz covariance (in conjunction with the causality requirements) of all physical laws (i.e., the worldspaceMach principle).
