Q&A

Is there a plausible way to exchange matter between spatial dimensions?

+0
−0

Assuming humans live in dimension 3+1; 3 spatial dimensions, length width and height, and one dimension of time,

Is it possible to move matter from our dimension 3+1 to another, such as 4+1 (adding a spatial dimension) or 2+1 (removing a spatial dimension)?

  • This would have the practical application of allowing access matter we previously couldn't get to; think of a flat, two dimensional being entering the third dimension and realizing the amount of resources it could take back home now that its one plane extended in another direction
  • This could also apply to travel in another spatial dimension or storage of three-dimensional matter in a "pocket" space

This question is similar to mine, but the top answer only describes grafting a three-dimensional space, for example, onto the second dimension in order to have interactions.

I want to know if it's possible to convert matter between spatial dimensions without just isolating it in a bubble of its relative geometry, and if so, the methods with which this could be done.
