GEOMETRY IN THEORETICAL PHYSICS AND MATHEMATICAL ENGINEERING, I

Abstract

An analysis is made of the three uses of geometry in Physics, i.e.: (1) as the framework of events and configurations, (2) equating physics and geometry, and (3) the geometrization of mathematical formulas. This analysis is illustrated with a survey of the work of Horvath, Kron, Kondo, etc., in the fields of physics and engineering. (Author)
