Except for two things: all the equations are actually pretty simple,
none of them seem to change.
It's not really the case you can represent *anything* with mathematics.
You cannot represent God (pretty much by definition of God), and you
cannot represent a partially-inconsistent system (one that is
inconsistent sometimes but not other times, or in some places but not
other places). Just as a couple of offhand examples.
