All of classical mechanics can be derived from fundamental physics. There is a collection of fundamental laws that all others are derived from. Is it the same in math? Is there a math axiom, or law, that all other laws and conjugations can be derived from?
Can all of mathematics be derived from one simple axiom

1Most people base their logic on ZF(C); see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zermelo%E2%80%93Fraenkel_set_theory – 2017-01-15

2It rather depends what you mean by a simple axiom. There are various ways of combining multiple statements so that the combination implies the truth of every sub-statement. – 2017-01-15

0Fundamental physics is quantum mechanics, relativity, and particle physics. We know friction for example, is just a product of a lot of electromagnetic interactions. I am wondering if the same is true for math. – 2017-01-15
