He used math that already existed and applied it to theoretical problems in physics.

His contributions were really in physics, but his "Einstein summation convention", invented for use in physics, is now used in math as well.

not a damn thing, he was a physicist. In her own words my sister believes Einstein "invented math" . Where do you guys get this from?
