Mathematics is the queen of Sciences. It deals with the scientific approach of getting useful solutions in multifarious fields. It is the back bone of modern science. Ever since its inception it is going into manifold directions. Now in these days of advanced development, it is interlinked with every important branch of technical and modern science. Pure mathematics and Applied mathematics are two eyes of Mathematics. Both are having and playing an equal and significant role in the field of research.
Mathematics is a backbone of all branches of knowledge.
In every field of scientific research, Mathematics is playing a vital role with manifold diversities. Mathematics is stretching its roots to all the directions of modern research.
Mathematics is of great importance in all areas of life. As a chemist in my life, mathematics is mainly involved in my work
Mathematics is a language that if clearly spoken delivers pertinent conclusions in any domain of (daily) life.
However, there is a 2nd level mathematics is subjected to when applying structurally active (!) concepts as stated in my 2nd paper of Structure wave theory in elaboration...
All the current papers use structurally inert concepts (all types of algebra known) that define descriptive (!) say enclosure-confined thus a posteriori science.
To become explicative (!) hence a priori, science requires the implementation of structure wave releases by defining observers, actually structural oscillators, in the planned theories.
This is what Structure wave theory does together with Number form theory.
Mathematics is fundamental to every field of study. It allows quantification of concepts and constructs, enables setting up hypotheses and postulates, help analyze observations and help present (if done honestly) indisputable scientific conclusions.
Mathematics (sensu lato) is the instrument of investigation and measurement of all branches of scientific research, economics, finance, literature, etc.. Furthermore, it is the compass of human daily life, of many animals and perhaps even some vegetable. Certainly it was born with life on earth unfortunately it is difficult if not impossible to know who started using it first, the bees, the man, the bats, the albatrosses, the sharks etc .. :)
Mathematics is important as it is part of our daily life, as the time is 10:08 AM in Pakistan, I have to check 27 papers(27 students) with nine questions each paper have (27 answers), all questions have three parts, a,b, and c, so total 27*27=729 answers grand total (every student tries to invent new type of theories, so total 729 innovative theories of generation Z) and then awarding marks for all these 729 answers (a, b and c parts of answers are having; 0.5 marks, 01 mark, 1.5 Mark, so one answer totally having 2.5 marks); this is only one example of mathematics being the part of our daily life; and if I try to share, more time will ....

Математика - единственная из всех [наук], которая придает всем остальным [наукам] столь необходимую точность и изысканность в описании всех их принципов, догматов и процессов! Только посредством математики можно точно описать, измерить, сравнить, проанализировать любой предмет исследования!
The article "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences" (http://www.dartmouth.edu/~matc/MathDrama/reading/Wigner.html) published in 1960 by the physicist Eugene Wigner gives one of the deep considerations, especially related to physics, about the present question.

Mathematics makes our life orderly and prevents chaos. Certain qualities that are nurtured by mathematics are power of reasoning, creativity, abstract or spatial thinking, critical thinking, problem-solving ability and even effective communication skills.

Mathematics is the queen of all Sciences. This is my favourite subject and I love this. Without doing calculation we cannot lead a disciplined life. For me, solving maths problem is my passion.
As an independent researcher I liked the journal " International Journal of scientific and innovative mathematical research."
Mathematics is the real life crystal ball. With mathematics we can predict future behavior and make our lives better. We do this by creating mathematical models of the physical world. Math is what has advanced the human race.
"The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics" is a title of a seminal paper by Wigner.
An interesting discussion by Hamming is given below.
https://www.dartmouth.edu/~matc/MathDrama/reading/Hamming.html
As pointed out by Hamming - the questions he raises and even the comments of Wigner are not scientific nor mathematical - they delve in to questions of philosophy. However, historically science and mathematics have be intertwined with questions in philosophy.
However, while mathematics has proven useful in the pursuit of scientific theories of nature, mathematics is not science. Mathematics is the study of the interrelationships between mathematical objects and relations between mathematical objects through a foundation of logic. That is mathematics is exploring a great logical tautology of a fixed set of axioms set forth.
Some contend that mathematics is more aligned with art and music or philosophy than science. An interesting article explores this is given in
https://magazine.krieger.jhu.edu/fall-2018-v16n1/the-art-of-mathematics/
that talks about how mathematicians work and think. As someone pointed out often the mathematics departments are within science, they are also often organized in the school of Arts and Sciences as independent departments. And often applied mathematics departments ( if there is a separate applied mathematics department) are organized in the school of engineering, e.g., Harvard and Princeton.
In reality mathematics is an extension of logic. To quote J. J. Sylvester "Just like music, mathematics is rigidly deigned on a set of rules and our mathematical constructions exhibit an infinite amount of creativity."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Joseph_Sylvester
Is it that the Universe operates under the same axioms of mathematics - most likely not. It may be more that when mathematics doesn't provide a solution to a physics problem, it is left out of the textbooks. Or we simplify until the problem is solvable. We concentrate on the problems we can solve, and avoid those we can't. That leaves the impression that mathematics can solve every physics problem.
Make no mistake that mathematics provides the language for to carry out Newton's scientific method of theory to prediction to experiment to falsification or refinement of a theory The theory is described in mathematical terms and the predictions are calculated from the mathematical equations describing the theory.
Mathematics is not science. Mathematics does supply a concise language for the sciences. Does it have to be the only language? Richard Feynman addressed that in one of his lectures (see below). The sciences is not mathematics - mathematics is about the pealing back and expanding the tautology and uncovering implications of our current knowledge through the use of rigorous mathematical and logical reasoning.

In his wonderful book, "The God Particle," Leon Lederman who received his Nobel prize in Physics as an experimental physicists, in some humor explains the "pecking order in physics." At the bottom he writes is the experimental physicists who has to figure out how to test a theory - make all the calculations and design the detectors needed. The experimental physicists answers to the theoretical physicists. The theoretical physicists answers to the mathematical, as Einstein to Marcel Grossman and Steven Hawkins to Roger Penrose) so his theory makes sense and can be falsified. Lederman goes on to say, the Mathematical only answers to God.
So while it is true that mathematics is important to the sciences - the sciences and mathematics are different but they do exist in a deep symbolic relationship.
Math, physics, biology, and chemistry are the basics of all modern sciences and technology these days. As a matter of fact, math seems classic and static knowledge for our students which turn into not attractive topic but it's essential for all diciplanes in engineering, computer and science
The language of numbers is the language of the century that all sciences share. There is no science without numbers
Therefore, mathematics, especially statistics, is the basis for all sciences
And the base on which other sciences are built
Greetings
We can determine the importance of mathematics in the field of research or the life of every person through the quality of life that we live, which are mathematical operations or advanced devices that depend mainly on designing mathematics.
In beginning was the Word. You can get the only number equivalent of any word. So numbers are base of our world.
For me, mathematics is every thing. We give meaning to quantitative and even qualitative data through mathematics. It is also true that we use mathematics in all walks of life.
Mathematics helps to build the fast thinking skills which are key in research.
Mathematics is already involved in everybody's life as it is related to the harmonious structure of the universe which makes life possible. The role of research is to find out the nature of this involvement in details.
I highly recommend the nice little book by Sabine Hossenfelder called "Lost In Math"
In is an interesting and provocative read where a practicing theoretical physicists ponders the move in modern physics which is to attach too much reliance on an assumption that the mathematical constructions of man somehow are the same rules Mother Nature applies that concludes science is getting away from it's roots of stringent testing through experimentation rather than extrapolation their the assuming that scientific theories are somehow self consistent and accurate. The role of the scientist is to ascertain if scientific theories are accurate and self consistent not assume it. Or to quote Richard Feynman, "It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is. It doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong.
Hossenfeilder's view is today physicists have wondered into the world where they view their science as a set of axioms and replacing the role of experimentation with that of logical reasoning. That has the risk of producing a beautiful theory that is no more than a "self licking ice cream cone."
Interesting read.

Mathematics is a code of sciences. A simple concept and objective of mathematics, is to transform or convert the real physical world to the world of approximation, where measurement and scaling is valid via input to output representation. In other words mathematics is a coding of physical or realizable world, where we can make measurements. Or more simply mathematics is a collection of functions representation of physical & realizable world.The main objective of mathematics is to obtain an answer for every given question, i.e., input to output representation or to obtain range values for the given domain values under specific coded representation of physical or rational world.
The importance of mathematics lies in its being a method based on research and analysis, to reach the required results, as it is used for calculation and presentation of data; where the use of this science is not limited to a specific field, but its use exceeded all areas of life and different sciences, and in the following are some of the benefits of mathematics in life Daily and practical:
1- Development of computers through mathematical theories. Developing the rest of the sciences and explaining their theories, especially physics, chemistry, astronomy, geography, and others. A study of the extent of population growth by environmental scientists, and the extent of population density. Deciphering code, military matters, secret numbers, and others. 2- The use of mathematics by many people in daily behaviors, such as: determining the amounts of foods during cooking, matters of sale and purchase, and follow-up times and business matters, and others.
3- Entering mathematics in many jobs such as (engineering, computer science and programming, accounting, banking and banking) that depend entirely on mathematics.
4- Mathematics is the language of science, as it enables thinkers to test their ideas by doing many experiments.
5- Using mathematics also in calculating bills (adding and subtracting revenues and expenditures), and financial obligations such as taxes, insurance, loans, and others. Mathematics is important for all professions in the world, as it depends heavily on the use of numbers and arithmetic.
6- Using mathematics in banking and financial matters, the person must be accurate in his calculations to be able to preserve his money in an optimal way.
7 - Mathematics plays a major role in developing modern technological means of communication, such as the Internet, which has become a necessity of daily life, which facilitates communication between people, and it also enables us to obtain information and search through it.
-8 Also, mathematics has a big role in cooking and cooking, and determining the necessary amounts, so the individual must know the fractions and proportions, and know the units of weight measurement used, such as a cup, a meter, a liter, a gram, and others.
All great discoveries in all aspects of life are based on the tools of mathematics. Through all ancient ages until the current world, mathematics plays an essential rule in the development of human civilization.
You can observe the old Iraqi invention of the wheel in 3500 BC , the notations, and the numerations in the ancient Babylon numerical system, the pyramids of Egypt, etc. Also, cosmology, physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology, arts, the n-th dimensional spaces, architecture, agriculture, music, language letters, computers, cryptography, and all that you can imagine should be strongly correlated to mathematics. The human's research for knowledge and development in all eras has had powered by mathematics.

Mathematics is important in all sciences, But it is more importance for engineering sciences than medical, for example, Also the need for it in scientific disciplines is more than humanism and literature.
Statistical mathematics is important in most fields.
We specialize in chemistry using linear algebra and group theory to understand the chemical structure of chemical compounds and its spectroscopy.
We use differential equations to study the thermodynamics properties of materials.
We use integration to study the kinetics of chemical reactions.
There are many applications in mathematical chemistry to understand them.
Scientifically,math is a coner stone in every discipline.In linguistics,as a science,there is a branch called"mathematical linguistics",which basically refers to a field of scientific linguistic inquiry applying mathematical methods and concepts to linguistic systems, to phenomena observed in natural languages, or to the metatheory of models of grammars in general.
Personally, and without any scientific argument, I think studying math, is like walking through an art gallery. Strong intuition could also be thought of as good mathematical taste. I don't know if math holds objective truth, I never will know, and whether it does or not that never held an important fact for me. It's a philosophy that places beauty first. We often associate math with science, but we should remember that for thousands of years it was strictly a LIBERAL ART.
