		Initially, Seiberg described pre-20th Century "classical physics," dominated by space-time and forces such as gravity, electricity and magnetism, as a rigid arena.
		Seiberg explained that gravity is a function of general relativity, which is itself a "modification of space and time." Under general relativity, space-time isn't a rigid background (a static arena for particles to interact), but space and time become dynamic and curved.
		Seiberg concluded that string theory is the only candidate for a complete theory of nature whose ultimate confirmation will require verification by experiment, though its fundamental principles aren't yet understood even though the past few years have seen tremendous progress.

	The Institute Letter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Institute for Advanced Study has announced the appointment of Nathan Seiberg, one of the world’s foremost particle physicists and a leader in the area of high energy theory, as a permanent Faculty member in the School of Natural Sciences.
		In awarding Dr. Seiberg a MacArthur Foundation fellowship in the spring of 1996, the Foundation noted that “Seiberg’s discoveries have had a decisive influence on the burgeoning fields of string theory and other quantum field theories and are central to the advancement of physics today.
		In the area of string theory, Seiberg and School of Natural Sciences Professor Edward Witten have collaborated over a period of several years on various developments that indicate that different versions of string theory may actually be aspects of one underlying theory.

		Incidentally, the M was left undefined by Witten and string theorists have spent many an idle hour speculating what it could stand for: they have come up with a range of possibilities including matrix, muffin, mystery, murky, membrane, monstrous, mother or magic - some scientists believe it is an upside down W for Witten.
		Nathan Seiberg, a colleague of Witten's at the IAS, uses the analogy of blind men examining an elephant to explain the course of string theory until 1995.
		Einstein died in 1955 without fulfilling his dream, but the question he was asking was the inspiration for what has now become string theory.

	On Nathan Seiberg's From Big Crunch To Big Bang...
		Nathan Seiberg of Princeton Institute for Advanced Study in his paper From big crunch to big bang - is it possible?, arXiv:hep-th/0201039 7 Jan 2002 (11 pages) proposes a conjecture and a research program to study it.
		He points out the technical reason on page 1, namely, that all we know about is strings in time independent backgrounds which admit a global timelike Killing vector in aymptotic spatial infinity, which rules out interesting backgrounds such as those which are of importance in cosmology.
		A more general reason is, I think, that Seiberg both summarizes our ignorance succinctly and questions axioms relating to summaries of our (supposed) knowledge.

		One year ago, while much of the world was preparing to celebrate Christmas, physicists Ed Witten and Nathan Seiberg gave their own special gift to the world.
		Witten and Seiberg transformed these extremely complex equations into simple ones, almost as simple as the ordinary calculus equations undergraduates work on in their classes.
		First, Witten and Seiberg themselves eliminated an annoying physical absurdity in physicists' theory explaining the unification of the strong and weak nuclear forces.

		This led to an increasing interest in gauge theory for its own sake, independent of its successes in fundamental physics.
		In 1994, Edward Witten and Nathan Seiberg invented gauge-theoretic techniques based on supersymmetry which enabled the calculation of certain topological invariants.
		These contributions to mathematics from gauge theory have led to a renewed interest in this area.

		The transition was thought to be an impossible passage in which the laws of physics blow up.
		However, recent developments in superstring theory suggest that the cosmic singularity is otherwise, as the two authors have argued in a recent paper with Justin Khoury (Princeton), Burt Ovrut (Penn) and Nathan Seiberg (IAS).
		Superstring theory relies on the idea that the Universe contains nine or ten spatial dimensions, depending on the formulation, all but three of which are curled up in a compact manifold of microscopic size.

	Strings draw theorists together (March 2000) - Physics World - PhysicsWeb
		It has long been suggested that noncommutative geometry should play a role in the quantum-mechanical description of space-time as related to quantum gravity.
		However, it is only with the most recent developments in string theory, prompted by among others Nathan Seiberg and Edward Witten of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, that this idea has been confirmed.
		Another major theme of the meeting was the new ideas on how string theory may describe observed physics, such as the forces and particles in nature and their properties.
