    in Physics (1921)‚ Time Magazine’s Person of the Century (1999) Einstein’s Contribution to Mathematics While Einstein was remembered for his contributions to physics‚ he also made contributions in mathematics. He contributed several equations to calculus and geometry‚ ten of which are called the Einstein Field Equations. He first published these equations in 1915. One of these equations demonstrates how stress-energy inflicts curvature of space-time. Born: Dec 25‚ 1642‚ in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth
