    Extractions: German mathematician and friend of Hilbert . Hermann studied invariants and wrote a paper on the decomposition of integers into the sum of five squares (a special case of Waring's problem ). Minkowski did very important work in the study of non-Euclidean geometry using tensor calculus The four dimensional time-space generalization of flat " Euclidean space " is known as Minkowski space He was aware of the fundamental nature of his work, stating "The views of space and time which I wish to lay before you have sprung from the soil of experimental physics, and therein lies their strength. They are radical. Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality" (Pais 1982, p. 152). Minkowski (Rudolph)

    Extractions: Hermann Minkowski Einstein was a student in several of the courses he gave. Hilbert and his associates. He participated in a seminar on electron theory in 1905 and he learnt the latest results and theories in electrodynamics. By 1907 Minkowski realised that the work of Lorentz and Einstein could be best understood in a non-euclidean spave. He considered space and time, which were formerly thought to be independent, to be coupled together in a four-dimensional 'space-time continuum'. Minkowski worked out a four-dimensional treatment of electrodynamics. His major works in this area are Raum und Zeit (1907) and This space-time continuum provided a framework for all later mathematical work in relativity. These ideas were used by Albert Einstein in developing the general theory of relativity. Minkowski was mainly interested in pure mathematics and spent much of his time investigating quadratic forms and continued fractions . His most original achievement, however, was his 'geometry of numbers'. This study led on to work on convex bodies and to questions about packing problems, the ways in which figures of a given shape can be placed within another given figure.

    Extractions: Minkowski's concept of the geometry of numbers constituted an important addition to number theory, and his research into that topic led him to consider certain geometric properties in a space of n dimensions and so to hit upon his notion of the space-time continuum. The principle of relativity, already put forward by and Albert Einstein , led Minkowski to the view that space and time were interlinked. In Raum und Zeit/Space and Time 1909, he proposed a four-dimensional manifold in which space and time became inseparable. The central idea was, as Einstein allowed, necessary for the working-out of the general theory of relativity.

    Extractions: In physics and mathematics Minkowski space (or Minkowski spacetime ) is the mathematical setting in which Einstein's theory of special relativity is most conveniently formulated. In this setting the three ordinary dimensions of space are combined with a single dimension of time to form a four-dimensional spacetime Note that this article describes only the mathematical structure of Minkowski space. For descriptions of the physics see the special relativity page. Table of contents showTocToggle("show","hide") 1 History edit Minkowski space is named for the German mathematician Hermann Minkowski , who around realized that the theory of special relativity previously worked out by Einstein and Lorentz could be elegantly described using a four-dimensional spacetime, which combines the dimension of time with the three dimensions of space. edit Formally, Minkowski space is a four-dimensional real vector space equipped with a nondegenerate, symmetric
