Abstract
It is shown in the present work that the three-dimensional trajectories of a specimen point charged particle in potential fields may be regarded as geodesic lines lying on isotropic surfaces of some four-dimensional configurational space, the connectedness of which has distortion, while the transference is nonmetric.
