The mathematical language of physicists is formal, like a short-hand writing, but this is extremely useful for getting very quickly the desired results that are related to the outcome of physical experiments. It is then the hard task of mathematicians to give rigorous proofs for the heuristic arguments of physicists. The flow of ideas from physics to mathematics is an indispensable source of inspiration for mathematicians.
