Gauge theory is a branch of mathematics and mathematical physics that studies the behavior of fields described by certain types of symmetries, specifically gauge symmetries. In essence, it provides a framework to understand how physical forces and particles interact based on the principles of symmetry. ### Key Concepts in Gauge Theory 1. **Gauge Symmetry**: This is a kind of symmetry that involves transformations of the fields that do not change the physical situation.
