My statement about anisochrony is one of the finest jewels of scientific 
thought.
However, you ask an important question: "But if there is no ether, what do 
photons and particles in general surf on?"

I will answer that since 1905 and Poincaré, the physicist no longer needs 
the notion of ether for a second, and he can convince himself that between 
here and there (apart from a few hydrogen atoms that wander around), there 
is nothing but emptiness, and no detectable or palpable support.

Now, emptiness does not mean nothingness.

If we remove all the matter from the universe, between A and B, something 
nevertheless remains: space and time.

This thing on which photons or particles in general surf, is not matter, 
it is not ether, it is just TIME.

There is in the universe in a constant way, between two given points A and 
B, separated by a distance of 3.10^8m, a time quantified at one second.

It is on this second that particles surf.

It is the universal anisochrony which gives the whole universe wave 
properties.

There is no need for ether.

As for the Poincaré-Lorentz transformations, they are the very basis of 
the description of the anisochronous universe, and remain valid in all 
frames of reference, including uniformly accelerated frames of reference 
and rotating relativistic frames of reference.
