I agree, in theory. The search for the grand unified theory of everything is one of the last great fronteirs in physics.
We can explain almost everything about the world around us using either Relativity or Quantium Theory. However these two theories contradict eachother in some circumstaces. Neither one can explain everything in terms of an equation.
The grand unified theory would do that. Right now alot of people think that super string theory just might be that theory of everything. However it's equations are so complex that we are unable to solve them with current technology.

It would be more correct to state that math equations work in this universe.
Physics principles work in this universe, as well...if there are other (eg. 'parallel') universes our physics might not work there.

Of course not. It follows laws that we use math to dexribe but even before we tried to do that, the universe still worked just fine.

yes; but it has to be a very big equation.
