When I was at university he gave a seminar for professors and postgraduates entitled "Proving theorems with physics" where he used principles like the conservation of momentum or absence of bulk charge to prove a range of otherwise difficult theorems.

It was a really fun and interesting talk, the guy is extremely smart and charismatic.

If you haven't known, there's this book called The mathematical mechanic by Mark Levi that has topics as you described.
