Economy; gauge or gauge theoriesAbstract
In the present work we make a historical review of economic studies, in particular, of the financial market, in which the tools and concepts developed in the context of gauge or norm theories are used, which constitute the cornerstone of the development of the fundamental physics. This vision allows us to understand the financial market as a dielectric material that, through the rearrangement of charges, polarizes to self-regulate and balance when arbitrage opportunities arise.
En el presente trabajo hacemos una revisión histórica de estudios económicos, en particular, del mercado financiero, en los que se emplean las herramientas y conceptos desarrollados en el contexto de las teorías de gauge o de norma, que constituyen la piedra angular del desarrollo de la física fundamental. Esta visión permite entender al mercado financiero como un material dieléctrico que, mediante el reacomodo de cargas, se polariza para auto-regularse y equilibrarse cuando se presentan oportunidades de arbitraje.
