Pythagorean Thought in Quantum Physics: The Mathematical Fabric of Reality
Throughout history, certain ideas have echoed across time, surfacing in different disciplines under different names. One of the most persistent is the Pythagorean notion that numbers and mathematical structures underpin reality itself. It’s an ancient idea, but in the context of modern quantum physics, it takes on an eerie relevance.
