Math: Life of nature and nature of life

It is highly difficult to human minds to understand complex models and phenomena in nature. They demand exceptional imaginative, analytical and reasoning skills.

For instance, as many of us know, several natural phenomena can be modeled as differential equations (ordinary, partial, integro-differential, stochastic,.. ,so on!).

Newton's apple, simple pendulum, periodic table, coin tossing, Einestein's relativity are some good examples:)

Several special functions, like, Bessel, Legendre polynomials, Chebyshev polynomials etc. are solutions of differential equations.

"So, Math implies
life of nature
and nature of life."

- Srinivasa Ramanujan
