A correspondence is presented linking discrete filter symmetry and the relativistic energy--momentum relation under the widely used nonlinear rectified convolution operation. Specifically, symmetric filter components (e.g. the sum $\Sigma = [1,1]$) operate analogously to rest energy $mc^2$ in preserving the image centre of mass (e.g. isotropic diffusion), whereas antisymmetric components (e.g. the gradient $\nabla = [-1,1]$) operate analogously to the momentum term $pc$ in generally inducing a displacement (e.g. vibration or translation). For typical small discrete filters, this displacement is determined by the ratio of antisymmetric to total filter energy, analogously to how the displacement of a relativistic particle relates to a Lorentz transform with beta parameter $\beta = \frac{v}{c}=\frac{pc}{E}$ equal to the ratio of momentum $pc$ to total energy $E$. Repeated filtering leads to the Gaussian scale-space and emergent scale-invariant features. These constructions share a Laplacian-driven structure with the classical heat (diffusion) equation and, via standard mathematical correspondences, with the Schrödinger equation and aspects of the Friedmann equations, together with emergent Morse topological structure. Demonstrations in 3D images reveal blob-like, scale-invariant Morse critical points in images spanning a wide range of physical scales, including organic sugar molecules and inorganic silicon crystals, human and primate brains in magnetic resonance images (MRI), galaxies and the cosmic microwave background (CMB).
