Is geometry truly the basis and foundation of all mathematics?
Can everything in mathematics be represented and studied by it?

>> No.9128054

No. There are things like functors that cant be geometric.

That has about the same relevance as your answer to OP's question

other way around. mathematics is the base. geometry is a convenient layer above.

no but you should always try to convert problems into geometric ones because the brain has more neurons dedicated to that way of thinking

Graph theory has little to do with geometry.

Agree.
From historical point of view, math was geometry. But even the egypts and greeks knew that not everything could be backed by geometry.

He asked if Geometry is the basis and foundation of all mathematics.
It is not, so I replied with the actual basis and foundation of all mathematics

geometry is decidable so no
