Squaring the Circle: Gleb Wataghin and the Prehistory of Quantum Gravity
| Abstract | The early history of the attempts to unify quantum theory with the general theory of relativity is depicted through the work of the under--appreciated Italo-Brazilian physicist Gleb Wataghin, who is responsible for many of the ideas that the quantum gravity community is entertaining today. | |||||||||
