Special relativity and the intrinsicality of shape.

In this article, the author focuses on special relativity (SR) and intrinsicality of shape. He quotes an example to understand the fact that three-dimensional shapes of objects are not intrinsic to them but four-dimensional shapes are intrinsic. He also mentions the impact of Lorentz contraction on...
