Description

A brief review on algebraic extensions of General Relativity will be given. After a short summary of first attempts by Max Born and Albert Einstein, all possible algebraic extensions will be discussed, with the pseudo-complex extension left as the only viable one, because it does not contain ghost solutions. Some predictions of the pseudo-complex extension are given.
