In this article, a formalism of physics is built by using only algebric combinations of symbols which represent collisions between bodies. The connection with reality is made by measures of time. The formalism is brought down to that of Dirac's matrices in a constant curvature space (De Sitter space). As a result it becomes possible to condense most of the physical basic laws, that are moreover written in a unified symbolism. The general application of this formalism will be the numerical treatment of physical problems.
Résumé
L'article bâtit un formalisme de la physique ne mettant en œuvre que les combinaisons algébriques de symboles représentatifs des chocs entre objets; le raccord au réel s'effectue par l'intermédiaire des mesures de temps. Le formalisme se ramène à celui d'une algèbre des matrices de DIRAC dans un espace à courbure constante (espace de De Sitter). Il en résulte la possibilité potentielle de condenser la plupart des lois physiques de base, écrites de surcroît dans un symbolisme unifié. L'application générale de ce formalisme est le traitement numérique des problèmes de physique.
