Local spinor structures in V. Fock's and H. Weyl's work on the Dirac equation (1929)
Erhard Scholz
In early 1929, V. Fock (initially in collaboration with D. Iwanenko) and H. Weyl developed independently from each other a general relativistic generalization of the Dirac equation…
Philosophy as a cultural resource and medium of reflection for Hermann Weyl
Erhard Scholz
Here we review a kind of post-World-War-II "Nachtrag" to H. Weyl's philosophical comments on mathematics and the natural sciences published in the middle of the 1920s. In a talk gi…
C.F. Gauss' Präzisionsmessungen terrestrischer Dreiecke und seine Überlegungen zur empirischen Fundierung der Geometrie in den 1820er Jahren (C.F. Gauss' high precion measurements of terrestrial triangles and his thoughts on the empirical foundations of geometry in the 1820s)
Erhard Scholz
In the historical literature there has been an extended discussion on the question, whether the report of Sartorius von Waltershausen about C. F. Gauss checking the largest triangl…
The changing concept of matter in H. Weyl's thought, 1918 -1930
Erhard Scholz
During the ``long decade'' of transformation of mathematical physics between 1915 and 1930, H. Weyl interacted with physics in two highly productive phases and contributed to it, a…
An extended frame for cosmology by integrable Weyl geometry
Erhard Scholz
A conservative extension of general relativity by integrable Weyl geometry is formulated, and a new class of cosmological models ({\em Weyl universes}) is introduced and studied. A…
Introducing Groups into Quantum Theory (1926 -- 1930)
Erhard Scholz
In the second half of the 1920s, physicists and mathematicians introduced group theoretic methods into the recently invented ``new'' quantum mechanics. Group representations turned…
