Description
Gauge Theory and the Geometrization of Physics offers a philosophical examination of how gauge theory serves as a foundational framework in modern physics. The book explores the deep connections between geometric structures and physical laws, demonstrating how abstract mathematical concepts become essential tools for understanding the natural world.
Henrique De Andrade Gomes investigates the conceptual foundations of gauge theory, analyzing how physicists have come to understand fundamental forces through geometric principles. The work addresses key philosophical questions about the nature of symmetry, the role of mathematical structures in physical theory, and what it means for physics to be fundamentally geometric.
This Element is part of Cambridge University Press’s philosophy of physics series, making it accessible to both philosophers and physicists interested in understanding the theoretical underpinnings of contemporary physics and the geometric revolution in modern physical science.
