Abstract
The conformity of mathematics and physics has so far been taken for granted. Philosophical explanations of that fundamental fact have never been satisfactory, mathematical explanations never had been attempted. In the following a fundamental theorem for the conformity of mathematics and physics will be demonstrated.Mathematics can be defined as the science of Number, physics as the science of Matter. The elementary constituents of mathematics are the prime numbers, those of matter the particles, particularly protons and electrons. The only essential property of these elements as such is their existence, given within a given complex or space. Their fundamental relation is their distribution within their respective spaces. The theorem of the distribution of primes in the arithmetical series of numbers is the fundamental theorem of mathematics. The fundamental theorem of physics would be a theorem of the distribution of particles in geometrical space. If it were shown that both theorems were equal, the essential conformity of mathematics and physics would be mathematically demonstrated.
