Variable speed of light "c"/"c" where "c" is light speed in flat space. Peter Bergmann did not agree with Einstein, but left the dispute out of his earlier book in 1942 to get Einstein’s endorsement. After Einstein died Bergmann wrote a new book in 1968 claiming that vector light velocity could change direction but not speed. This has become a prevailing opinion in science, but not in agreement with Einstein’s unambiguous math. Bergman did acknowledge that the apparent speed of light would change in a gravity field and go to zero at an event horizon as viewed by a distant observer. Max Born agreed
One-way speed of light that slow clock-transport, the laws of motion, and the way inertial reference frames are defined, already involve the assumption of isotropic one-way speeds and thus are conventional as well. In general, it was shown that these experiments are consistent with anisotropic one-way light speed as long as the two-way light speed is isotropic. The 'speed of light' in this article refers to the speed of all electromagnetic radiation in vacuum. The two-way speed of light is the average speed of light from one point, such as a source, to a mirror and back again. Because the light starts and finishes
