When Einstein's relativity meets Brownian motion, the math breaks — and fixing it reveals deep tensions between causality and randomness at the heart of modern physics.

Theory Briefing
- Relativistic diffusion theory tackles why classical Brownian motion fails when particle speeds approach light, violating causality.
- The 65-page Uppsala monograph formalizes how randomness must be restructured to respect the universal speed limit of relativity.
- Merging stochastic processes with special relativity exposes a fundamental conflict between statistical mechanics and spacetime geometry.
