First Hermann Minkowski Meeting on the Foundations of Spacetime Physics

The Hermann Minkowski Meetings on the Foundations of Spacetime Physics bring together experts on the foundations of spacetime physics as well as beginners in the field.

The First Hermann Minkowski Meeting on the Foundations of Spacetime Physics will commemorate the 110th anniversary of Minkowski's two lectures in 1907, which presented the novel ideas and the mathematical formalism of the four-dimensional physics of spacetime (summarized in Minkowski's famous lecture Space and Time a year later). In addition to technical papers on areas related to Minkowski's contributions to the foundations of spacetime physics and on modern ramifications of his ideas, contributions on closely related topics will be also welcome - for example, on the history behind the discovery of the spacetime structure of the world and on conceptual issues.
