Bridging the gap between dark matter and MOND by a relativistc scalar field approach

Erhard Scholz

A Lagrangian model for a general relativistic scalar field, formulated in the framework of integrable Weyl geometry, is studied. Under the present assumptions it modifies the light…

Mathematical modernity, goal or problem? The opposing views of Felix Hausdorff and Hermann Weyl

Erhard Scholz

This paper contains a case study of the work and self-definition of two important mathematicians during the rise of modern mathematics: Felx Hausdorff (1868--1942) and Hermann Weyl…

From heliocentrism to epicycles: A commentary on pre-Ptolemaic astronomy

Erhard Scholz

If one wants to translate the heliocentric picture of planets moving uniformly on circular orbits about the sun to the perspective of a terrestrial observer, using classical (ancie…

H. Weyl's and E. Cartan's proposals for infinitesimal geometry in the early 1920s

Erhard Scholz

In the early phase of general relativity Elie Cartan and Hermann Weyl thought about the question of how the role of transformation groups could be transferred from classical geomet…

A Weyl geometric scalar field approach to the dark sector

Erhard Scholz

This paper explores the dark sector (dark matter and dark energy) from the perspective of Weyl geometric scalar tensor theory (integrable Weyl geometry). In order to account for th…
