Equations Quote by Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar

The field equations and the whole history of general relativity have been complicated.

— Rainer Weiss

Einstein's theory of General Relativity has a mathematical structure very similar to Yang-Mills theory.

— Chen-Ning Yang

As for methods I have sought to give them all the rigour that one requires in geometry, so as never to have recourse to…

— Augustin-Louis Cauchy

The math of quantum mechanics and the math of general relativity, when they confront one another, they are ferocious antagonists and the equations don't…

— Brian Greene

The next grand extensions of mathematical physics will, in all likelihood, be furnished by quaternions.

— Peter Tait

Geometry is the noblest branch of physics.

— William Fogg Osgood

Even before string theory, especially as physics developed in the 20th century, it turned out that the equations that really work in describing nature…

— Edward Witten

Equations are just the boring part of mathematics. I attempt to see things in terms of geometry.

— Stephen Hawking

The fundamental laws necessary for the mathematical treatment of a large part of physics and the whole of chemistry are thus completely known, and…

— Paul Dirac

The quest for a quantum gravity is one of the greatest unsolved problems in all of science.

— Michio Kaku

The triumph is that the waveform we measure is very well represented by solutions of these equations. Einstein is right in a regime where…

— Rainer Weiss

When general relativity was first put forward in 1915, the math was very unfamiliar to most physicists. Now we teach general relativity to advanced…
