So I'm new here, I came because I have an interest in quantum physics. I want to ask a question about a theory because I admittedly have not been to college or anything, and don't know all of this stuff in depth, and want to know if it is potentially valid. Any criticism will be appreciated very much.
Basically, my theory is as follows. If the four dimensions build on each other, logically the fifth dimension would be taking a step back from time. Based off Feynman's theory (I don't know if it is readily accepted) of multiple histories, the universe is adding up all the possible probabilities of the next time and moving on to the one that is most likely. Does that mean the fifth dimension is multiple universes, of which only one is in our reality? This would be similar to the way that only one instant of time can be observed but it is considered relative to one's position, gravity, etc (Einstein's Theory of Relativity). If so, is it possible that velocity could be defined more than just an object changing position over time to be an object moving through the most likely outcome of the next point in the fifth dimension? This would explain the uncertainty principle as far as I can tell. The universe would pick the next most likely outcome, meaning that unless we understand how that is determined we will not be able to predict where the electron will be in the next instant in time. We could determine the direction it is travelling, how fast it will be moving, or it's current position at any instant but not all of these because conceivably the universe could be moving it to a slightly different point. If so, there must be a theoretical law such as Einstein's theory of relativity that would describe the rules for movement in the fifth dimension. When discovered it would explain why an electron couldn't suddenly move in the opposite direction at the same speed but would also be based off of a probability factor that would keep us from determining multiple properties of the electron at the same time. It could also explain quantum entanglement, as perhaps there is some natural law that when two particles interact the universe will move them through the exact same positions as it traverses through the fifth dimension. Just an idea, because I've been reading about theories of gravitons "leaking over" from the fifth dimension which to me would invalidate the concept that all dimensions are constant at least relatively.
Again, just a hobbyist, but this seems a logical way to conceptualize the fifth dimension to me. It could also lead rise to more theories (these are way out there and have no basis in science) but potentially maybe dark matter is created when the probable space for two molecules is the exact same event so that there is multiple times the usual mass of something in the same place at once. Who knows. If this is logically completely wrong, please let me know. I am very open to criticism as I am just trying to learn as much about this topic as I can.
