Minkowski is perhaps best known for his work in relativity, in which he showed in 1907 that his former student Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity ( 1905 ), presented algebraically by Einstein, could also be understood geometrically as a theory of four-dimensional space-time.

In 1907, the mathematician Hermann Minkowski ( who was Einstein's former mathematics professor in Swiss Federal Polytechnic ) introduced a geometric formulation of Einstein's special theory of relativity in which the geometry included not only space, but also time.

Poincaré's attempt of a four-dimensional reformulation of the new mechanics was not continued by himself, so it was Hermann Minkowski ( 1907 ), who worked out the consequences of that notion ( other contributions were made by Roberto Marcolongo ( 1906 ) and Richard Hargreaves ( 1908 )).

It was noted by Minkowski ( 1907 ) that his space-time formalism represents a " four-dimensional non-euclidean manifold ", but in order to emphasize the formal similarity to the more familiar Euclidean geometry, Minkowski noted that the time coordinate could be treated as imaginary.

In addition, the improved mathematical formulation of the theory by Hermann Minkowski in 1907 was influential in gaining acceptance for the theory.

Einstein's 1905 presentation of special relativity was soon supplemented, in 1907, by Hermann Minkowski, who showed that the relations had a very natural interpretation in terms of a unified four-dimensional " spacetime " in which absolute intervals are seen to be given by an extension of the Pythagorean theorem.
