Yes, he developed new ways to handle huge equation arrays used later in some quantum approaches to the 'Theory of Everything'. Compiled couple volumes of several hundred theorems which came to him while sleeping, which he took down. Then wrote to some English math professors asking what they meant. Some theorems were familiar so looked like copies, so were ignored. But one professor looked deeper and helped the guy. Maybe the worlds greatest math guy so far................ Until EC starts writing down HIS dreams.
