Abstract

A short discussion of errors of the description of his kinematics published in 1905 is given in this letter. The definition of terms used is not adequate to this day, and rather surprisingly a simple mathematical error can be found in the description of the Special Theory of Relativity. Three errors are indicated. None of these is discussed in great detail. We hope to cause more detailed treatment of these problems by skilled mathematicians and experimental physicists with background in this area.
