In this book, Giuseppe Arcidiacono develops the new Special Projective Relativity theory, based on the Fantappié group and the De Sitter Universe with constant positive curvature, which extends the Einstein Special Relativity theory on a cosmic scale, obtaining a group version of the Big Bang cosmology.

Giuseppe Arcidiacono (1927-1998) was Professor of Mathematical Physics at the University of Rome and the University of Perugia. He was a researcher with Luigi Fantappié at the “Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica” of the University of Rome and heod of the “International Center of Comparison and Synthesis”.
His primary research interests were in the field of the matematical theory of relativity, cosmology and the unified theory of matter and electricity.
