Scientific paper

It is shown that gravitationlike gauge fields can result from compact, internal symmetry groups. In particular, when the global duality invariance of the vacuum Maxwell's equations is made into a local symmetry using the methods of Yang and Mills, the gauge field is found to have certain properties characteristic of gravity. It is conjectured that a realistic theory of gravity can be constructed as a gauge theory based on a compact, internal symmetry group.
