C. F. von Weizsaecker's Reconstruction of Physics: Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
Holger Lyre
Carl Friedrich von Weizsaecker's thinking has always crossed the borders between physics and philosophy. Being a physicist by training he still feels at home in the physics communi…
On the Equivalence of Phase and Field Charges
Holger Lyre
The analysis of the gauge principle as a mere passive symmetry requirement leads to the conclusion that the connection term in the covariant derivative is flat and that local phase…
The Principles of Gauging
Holger Lyre
The aim of this paper is twofold: First, to present an examination of the principles underlying gauge field theories. I shall argue that there are two principles directly connected…
Fiber Bundle Gauge Theories and "Field's Dilemma"
Yair Guttmann, Holger Lyre
We propose a distinction between the physical and the mathematical parts of gauge field theories. The main problem we face is to uphold a strong and meaningful criterion of what is…
Gauges, Holes, and their `Connections'
Holger Lyre
The purpose of this paper is to present a generalized hole argument for gauge field theories and their geometrical setting in terms of fiber bundles. The generalized hole argument…
Quantum Space-Time and Tetrads
Holger Lyre
The description of space-time in a quantum theoretical framework must be considered as a fundamental problem in physics. Most attempts start with an already given classical space-t…
