Is the Derivation of Lorentz Transformation Absurd?

摘要

The original derivation of the Lorentz transformation by Einstein is discussed in detail. We find that Einstein's derivation does not withstand scrutiny, and even is absurd. Einstein unexpectedly placed formulae that have different physical meanings together with an arbitrary substitution operation. This not only conflicts with the Princium Identitatis, but also confuses the concepts. Not only that, Einstein used these formula and physical for events that are not related. No matter what, the Lorentz transformation was not derived.
