Dan Loewenthal (1943-2000)
● TITLE: Relativistic combination of any number of collinear velocities and generalization of Einstein's formula
● AUTHORS: Loewenthal, D., Robinson, E.A.
● SOURCE: J. Math. Anal. Appl., v. 246, pp. 320-324 (2000).
● ABSTRACT: By a direct application of the theory of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle, the Einstein relativistic combination of any number of collinear velocities is given in a surprisingly simple closed form. By doing so the Antippa additive formula is simplified. Insight is gained through treatment of the wave equations describing pressure and particle velocities for a layered model.

● LOEWENTHAL'S RELATIVISTIC ADDITIVE FORMULA (for -c < vi < c ):
v/c = [ Πi=1...n(1+vi /c) - Πi=1...n(1-vi /c)/ [ Πi=1...n(1+vi /c) + Πi=1...n(1-vi /c)]
(where Π denotes successive multiplication).
Those who want to check for n=3 may calculate and compare the result with the formula in:
