Mathematics and Physics are different research cultures. In comparison with
mathematicians, physicists in some cases try to simplify and to introduce new cultural context into conventional pure mathematics. Cross-cultural differences between these cultures can be essential and some attempts to do alternative mathematics in the physical academic context could be defined as the new fields of ethnomathematics. Einstein’s Relativity as this kind of ethnomathematics is the first considered .... view less
