The adventures of Spacetime
Orfeu Bertolami
Abstract
We discuss how developments in physics often imply in the need that spacetime acquires an increasingly richer and complex structure. General Relativity was the first theory to show us the way to connect space and time with the physical world. Since then, scrutinizing the ways spacetime might exist is, in a way, the very essence of physics. Physics has thus given substance to the pioneering work of scores of brilliant mathematicians who speculated on the geometry and topology of spaces.
