A '''gauge theory of economics''' is the application of differential geometric methods to economic problems. This was first developed by [[Pia Malaney]] and [[Eric Weinstein]] in Malaney's 1996 doctoral thesis [https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/eb74/898337415912a12d5b6642e5c2e6950f637c.pdf The Index Number Problem: A Differential Geometric Approach]. | A '''gauge theory of economics''' is the application of differential geometric methods to economic problems.

Gauge theory is all you need to break out of the economics flatland. The following is an equation that Eric Weinstein talked about. We are going to break it down together and picture the meaning of each part in a geometrical and intuitive way. The results of this work will be interesting for the present economics community. | Gauge theory is all you need to break out of the economics flatland.
