euler is the last titan of pure raw 'classic' mathematics because gauss was a pretty strong 'theoretical' physicist.

how have the mathematical contributions of quantum physics affected mathematics? have they??

maybe the field that's really lagging in recognizing the implications of "recent" scientific revolution (QM) is philosophy?

finally, I wonder how will the schizm in mathematics that is the IUT (mochizuki's theory) will finally pan out. apparently euler also left stuff behind that took over 70 years to be understood so I ain't holding my breath.
