  • Olaf Dreyer (born 1969, Hamburg) is a German theoretical physicist whose research interests include quantum gravity and the quantum measurement problem. Dreyer received his Ph.D. in quantum gravity in 2001 from the Pennsylvania State University under the direction of Abhay Ashtekar. Subsequently, he has held a postdoctoral fellowship at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ontario, a Marie Curie Fellowship at Imperial College, London, and a postdoctoral fellowship at the Center for Theoretical Physics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 2002 Dreyer proposed a connection between the Barbero-Immirzi parameter in loop quantum gravity and the asymptotic behaviour of black hole quasinormal modes (in numerical general relativity), building on previous insights due to Shahar Hod. Subsequently, Lubos Motl proved that the exact asymptotic behaviour of the quasinormal modes of the Schwarzschild black hole was as predicted numerically. Dreyer has developed an approach to quantum gravity known as "internal relativity". (en)
  • Olaf Dreyer (Amburgo, 1969) è un fisico tedesco. I suoi interessi si basavano sulla ricerca della gravità quantistica e il problema della misurazione quantistica. Dreyer conseguito il dottorato in gravità quantistica nel 2001, dalla Pennsylvania State University sotto la direzione di Abhay Ashtekar. Successivamente ha tenuto una borsa di studio post-dottorato presso il Perimeter Institute a Waterloo, Ontario, una borsa di studio a Marie Curie presso l'Imperial College di Londra, e una borsa di studio post-dottorato presso il Centro di Fisica Teorica, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Nel 2002 Dreyer ha proposto un collegamento tra il parametro Barbero-Immirzi fra il comportamento asintotico del buco nero in gravità quantistica a loop. Dreyer ha sviluppato un approccio della gravità quantistica conosciuta come "la relatività interna". (it)
