The methods of theoretical physics should be applicable to all those branches of thought in which the essential features are expressible with numbers.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
All the mathematical sciences are founded on relations between physical laws and laws of numbers, so that the aim of exact science is to reduce the problems of nature to the determination of quantities by operations with numbers.
The more science I studied, the more I saw that physics becomes metaphysics and numbers become imaginary numbers. The farther you go into science, the mushier the ground gets. You start to say, 'Oh, there is an order and a spiritual aspect to science.'
The mathematical framework of quantum theory has passed countless successful tests and is now universally accepted as a consistent and accurate description of all atomic phenomena.
Most people don't have time to master the very mathematical details of theoretical physics.
The application of group theory to physics became one of the main branches of physics that I specialized in.
The further a mathematical theory is developed, the more harmoniously and uniformly does its construction proceed, and unsuspected relations are disclosed between hitherto separated branches of the science.
Physics has a history of synthesizing many phenomena into a few theories.
For most people, the major hurdle in grasping modern insights into the nature of the universe is that these developments are usually phrased using mathematics.
The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works.
There are 15 main theories in physics, and we know all of them. If there weren't a finite number of theories, there would not be a point to physics.
