micromass said:The only thing prettier than this is the proof of this equality.
atyy said:Can you prove it without going to 2 dimensions?
micromass said:Yes, that's definitely possible.
atyy said:Give me a clue?
These may be of interest here, too,kith said:Regarding aesthetics in quantum mechanical expressions, we had a thread from a tattoo artist in the Quantum Physics forum not too long ago which may be of interest to the readers here.

If you don't appreciate it, then you don't appreciate life...
You still seem to be thinking in terms of beauty-in-meaning, rather than visual beauty.micromass said:No Gauss-Bonnet yet??

Actually, it's fascinating how high powered mathematicians like yourself and A. Neumaier (to name just 2 among others in this thread) perceive beauty-in-meaning where others do not, yet have trouble perceiving the visual beauty that others can. Other types of people (e.g., conventional artists) suffer the reverse -- they create beautiful pictures yet cannot even understand how basic percentages work.
Don't forget the "all 1" formula from @TeethWhitener. It has the most votes currently.Shyan said:The most voted equations are the ones by Samy_A and micromass himself, which are both more about the meaning than the looks.
Oh...missed that one!mfb said:Don't forget the "all 1" formula from @TeethWhitener. It has the most votes currently.
micromass' formula has small and capital pi in it.

micromass said:Not really an equation...
mfb said:Now you have to show that it is either generally true in some way or defines something meaningful.
Whereas a lot of these equations require an advanced degree to appreciate, this one is one that middle schoolers might appreciate moreKevin McHugh said:∫ex = f(μ)n
Here is one I think is beautiful!
