Yes. Euler identity is wonderful.

It amazes me also that it makes the square of any complex number into a (non normalized) gaussian:
(e^ix)^2 = e^(-x^2)

I love also Euler even deeper identity relating the square of the integers and the prime numbers:

Sum from n = 1 to infinity of 1/n^s = Product on all primes p of (1/ (1- 1/p^s). This led Riemann to the deeper of all open problem in math (Riemann hypothesis).

Ramanujan found quite amazing number relations. Some are so deep that they link gravitation, quantum computing, prime numbers, string theory and the arithmetic of the integers, all given a key role to the number 24.

Jacobi found amazing relations too, involving 24.

Math is full of surprising relations. That's a reason, I think, to believe in their objectivity or 3p-independence.

  How to understand Vacuum: T=0K ?

Physics (classical + quantum) lives under shadow of Vacuum.
I want throw light on this Vacuum.
Three theories explain the Vacuum T=0K :
a) theory of ideal gas because its temperature is T=0K,

b)  QED theory because this theory explain interaction
photon / electron not only with matter but with vacuum too,

 c)  Euler’s equation:  e^ i(pi) = - 1, because only in the
negative vacuum T=0K  can exist ‘ virtual imaginaries particles’
which Euler described by his formula:  e^ i(pi) + 1= 0.

d)  The global conservation of energy is infinite .
And this infinite energy belong to the vacuum because  that
 more than 90% of mass ( dark mass/energy ) is hidden in the vacuum
How to understand vacuum's infinity ?
Vacuum's infinity has only one physical parameter: T=0K.
This physical parameter is the key to understand the essence of
Existence.
=.
Without Vacuum T=0K  there isn’t Physics,
there isn’t Philosophy of Physics.

It means that global conservation of energy is infinite .
And this infinite energy belong to the vacuum because  that

Vacuum's infinity has only one physical parameter: T=0K.

I wrote that Planck gave answer to the questions:

How to describe the Universe as it really is ?

Does somebody disagree with Planck ?

Well for one thing it appears that global conservation of energy can't even be defined for the universe (no timelike Killing field) - so it can hardly be the foundation of physics.

    In his " Scientific Autobiography" Max Planck wrote :
' The outside world is something independent from man,
  something absolute, and the quest for the laws which apply
  to this absolute appeared to me as the most sublime scientific
  pursuit in life. '

  What are these ' laws which apply to this absolute ' world ?
==..
In the beginning Planck wrote, that " From young years....
the search of the laws, concerning to something absolute,
seemed to me the most wonderful task in scientist s life."
And after some pages Planck wrote again, that
" the search for something absolute seemed to me the
most wonderful task for a researcher."
And after some pages Planck wrote again, that
the most wonderful scientific task for me was
searching of something absolute."
==..
And as for the relation between relativity and absolute
Planck wrote, that the fact of  " relativity assumes the
existence of something absolute" ;
"the relativity has sense when something absolute resists it.
Planck wrote that the phrase " all is relative " misleads us,
  because there is something absolute .
And the most attractive thing was for Planck
to find something absolute that was hidden in its foundation.
3.
And Planck explained what there is absolute in the physics:
a) The Law of conservation and transformation energy,.
b) The negative 4D continuum,
c) The speed of light quanta,
d) The maximum entropy which is possible
at temperature of absolute zero: T=0K.
==.
I think that these four Planck's points are foundation of science.
