Mathematics is a deductive science, in which conclusions are obtained through logical reasoning from a set of postulates.

Science requires experiments. But experiments cannot be absolutely accurate. If there is a mathematical theory, it all depends on inference, which is completely correct. This science cannot be separated from mathematics. Many basic concepts of science often require mathematical concepts to represent them. Therefore, it is natural that mathematicians can make a living but cannot win Nobel Prizes.

There are no Nobel Prizes in mathematics, which is probably a good thing. The Nobel Prize is too high-profile and distracts mathematicians from focusing on their own research.

We appreciate mathematics, we need mathematics.

The purpose of a mathematician is to understand mathematics. Historically, mathematics has progressed in two ways: increasing understanding of known materials, and extending the scope.

The number of late sequence is not a miraculous thing, it is tangible and can be detected, and there are numbers that can be deduced.

Liu Hui

Things are similar to each other, and each has its own purpose. Therefore, although the branches are divided, they have the same origin and origin, just one end. The principles are analyzed with words and disintegrated with pictures.

The common people can also make reservations and be able to make a thorough understanding.

"Chinese scientist Wang Juzhen has a motto when it comes to experimental failures, which is: "If you keep doing it, there is a 50% chance of success, but if you don't do it, it will be a 100% failure." "

--- Wang Juzhen

"We must dare to make subtractions in our studies, which is to subtract the parts that have been solved by predecessors to see what problems are still unsolved and that we need to solve. Go explore and solve. "----Hua Luogeng

"A scholar, in addition to learning knowledge, must also have "tast". This word is not easy to translate, and some translate it into taste and love. If a person wants to achieve great achievements, he must have a very clear "tast". "---Yang Zhenning

“New mathematical methods and concepts are often more important than solving mathematical problems themselves”——Hua Luogeng

“Modern high-energy After physics reaches quantum physics, many experiments cannot be done at all. You can do calculations at home with pen and paper, which is not far from what mathematicians think. Therefore, mathematics has incredible power in physics." - Qiu Chengtong

“The universe is vast, the particles are tiny, the speed of rockets, the ingenuity of chemical engineering, the changes in the earth, the mysteries of living things, and the complexity of daily life. Mathematics is used everywhere. ”——Hua Luogeng

This is a reliable rule. When the author of mathematical or philosophical works writes in vague and profound words, he is talking nonsense. ——A.N. Whitehead

I have heard some people say that I am an opponent of mathematics and an enemy of mathematics, but no one respects mathematics more than me, because it has accomplished achievements that I have never achieved - Goethe

The essence of mathematics lies in its freedom. - Cantor

In the field of mathematics, the art of asking questions is more important than the art of answering them. - Cantor

No question touches the human emotions as deeply as infinity, few other ideas stimulate the intellect to productive thought, and yet no other concept demands as much elucidation as infinity. ―Hilbert

Numbers rule the universe. ―Pythagoras

Mathematics, the queen of science; arithmetic, the queen of mathematics. ―Gauss.

Mathematics is an infinite science. ——Herman Weyl

Problems are the heart of mathematics. ——P.R. Halmos

As long as one branch of science can raise a large number of questions. , it is full of vitality, while the lack of problems heralds the termination or decline of independent development.

―Hilbert

Some beautiful theorems in mathematics have this characteristic: they are easily summarized from the facts, but the proofs are extremely hidden. ——Gauss

Mathematicians are like lovers...give a mathematician the minimum principles, and he will draw a conclusion that you must agree with, and from this conclusion he will draw another conclusion. ― Fontanelli

Arithmetic (Arithmetic) is the oldest, perhaps the oldest, branch of human knowledge; yet some of its most profound secrets are closely connected with its most prosaic truths. ―H.J.S. Smith

As strange as it may sound, the power of mathematics lies in its avoidance of all unnecessary thinking and its astonishing savings in mental effort. ― Ernst Mach

But there is another reason for mathematics’s great reputation: it is mathematics that gives the various precise natural sciences a degree of reliability that they would not have achieved without mathematics. sex. ―Albert Einstein

Mathematics is a tool particularly suitable for dealing with abstract concepts of any kind, and its power in this field has no limits. For this reason, a book about emerging physics, as long as it is not a purely experimental description, is essentially a mathematical book. ―P.A.M. Dirac

To create a healthy philosophy, you should abandon metaphysics, but become a good mathematician.

―Bertrand Russell

Every new group discovered is mathematical in form because we can have no other guidance. ——C.G. Darwin

God is a geometer. ―Plato

God is an arithmetician. ——C.G.J. Jacobi

Mathematics is the most precise science, and all its conclusions can be absolutely proven. But this is only the case because mathematics does not attempt to draw absolute conclusions. All mathematical truths are relative and conditional.

——Charles Protoeus Steinmetz

Mathematics is a tool of knowledge and the source of other knowledge tools. All sciences that deal with order and measurement are related to mathematics. ― Descartes

Mathematical methods penetrate and dominate all theoretical branches of natural science. It has increasingly become the primary measure of scientific achievement. ——Von Newman

Feeling the beauty of mathematics, feeling the coordination of numbers and shapes, and feeling the elegance of geometry are the true feelings of beauty that all true mathematicians know.

——Poincaré
