Autorenporträt

Daniel Canarutto is a mathematical physicist interested in the clarification of mathematical notions of fundamental physics, using natural differential geometry as the main tool. His earlier work includes results about the geometry of spacetime singularities. Since 1993 he has focused on basic notions underlying quantum physics, revisiting several aspects within partly original approaches to spinor geometry, distributional bundles and other geometry-related topics.
