What is physical applied mathematics?

AI Thread Summary
Physical applied mathematics refers to the interdisciplinary relationship between mathematics and physics, emphasizing the application of mathematical techniques to solve physical problems. This concept has evolved over centuries, leading to the formal recognition of its significance in research and education. The term may be seen as an extension or rebranding of the established field of Mathematical Physics, which traditionally focuses on the mathematical foundations of physical theories. The discussion highlights the importance of this relationship in advancing both fields and encourages further exploration of its applications.
