   Linked via "Weyl gauge theory"

   Historical Context and Initial Formulation
   The initial insights into gauge invariance emerged from the work on electromagnetism. Hermann Weyl first proposed the concept of gauge invariance in 1918, attempting to unify gravitation and electromagnetism. Weyl postulated a scale invariance in the metric tensor, suggesting that physical measurements should remain unchanged if all measuring rods were simultaneously scaled by a spatially varying factor [3].
