Luigi Fantappiè

Luigi Fantappiè (15 September1901-28 July1956) was an Italian mathematician, known for work in mathematical analysis, where he was a student and follower of Vito Volterra. Later in life he proposed scientific theories of sweeping scope.

He was born in Viterbo, and studied at the University of Pisa, graduating in mathematics in 1922. After time spent abroad, he was offered a chair by the University of Florence in 1926, and a year later by the University of Palermo. He spent the years 1934 to 1939 in São Paulo, Brazil. In 1939 he was offered a chair at the University of Rome

In 1942 he put forth a unified theory of physics and biology, and the syntropy concept. In 1952 he started to work on a unified physical theory, for which, he asserted, special relativity was a limiting case.
