In this language, the electromagnetic field acts as a phase connection, gauge invariance expresses the redundancy of the absolute phase reference, and the Aharonov-Bohm effect appears as a direct experimental manifestation of the physical reality of the connection's holonomy.</p> <p>The objective of this work is not to fully derive Maxwell's equations from a new microscopic model, but to make explicit that the formal structure of electromagnetism is compatible with a formulation based on phase, connection, and coherence. In this sense, the electromagnetic interaction can be reinterpreted as an active phase modulation, in contrast to the role of gravity as a passive propagation structure.</p> |
