This article is about the dispute over the origin of general relativity. For the dispute in special relativity, see Relativity priority dispute.
Albert Einstein
David Hilbert
Albert Einstein's discovery of the gravitational field equations of general relativity and David Hilbert's almost simultaneous derivation of the theory using an elegant variational principle,[B 1]: 170 during a period when the two corresponded frequently, has led to numerous historical analyses of their interaction. The analyses came to be called a priority dispute.[B 2] Cite error: There are <ref group=B> tags on this page, but the references will not show without a {{reflist|group=B}} template (see the help page).
