Well what I know of Srinivasa (mostly because of what you posted ) I believe he might have had the greatest ability in math ever (well known ability)

Much of his work has only just started to find use with Superstring theory, how weird is that 😕 He actually had dreams of solutions and ideas. His mind could somehow jumo from A to C without passing through B. A fascinating gift. Weird huh.
