His research has had vital importance for theoretical physics and purely mathematical disciplines including number theory. One of the most distinguished mathematicians of the twentieth century, and an outstanding member of the Institute for Advanced Study. Weyl printed technical and some general works on logic, symmetry, space, time, matter, philosophy, and the history of mathematics. One of the first to conceive the combination of general relativity and the laws of electromagnetism.
