Chapter Chapter 10 in Axiomatic Thinking II, 2022, pp 235-268 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In the first part of this contribution, I will present aspects and attitudes towards “axiomatic thinking” in various branches of theoretical physics. In the second and more technical part, which is approximately of the same size, I will focus on mathematical results that are relevant for axiomatic schemes of space-time in connection with attempts to axiomatize Special and General Relativity.
