= Mathematician
{wiki}
A <mathematician> develops and studies mathematical structures, formulates conjectures, constructs <mathematical proofs> and designs methods for solving problems. Work can emphasize foundational theory, computational methods or applications to scientific models; these activities often interact.
For example, a question about stable <numerical methods> may require a theorem in <functional analysis>, while a geometric example can reveal the right algebraic definition. The <list of mathematicians> connects individual contributions with the reusable mathematical ideas they helped establish.
