Abstract

In this work a new theory called by ‘Object Theory’ (or ‘Theory of Objects’) is introduced in Pure Mathematics. It is explained that the classical Number Theory is a particular instance of the ‘Object Theory’ corresponding to the region R. Although this is purely a theoretical work, but this theory is expected to cater to Mathematics and all branches of STEM including AI, Data Science, modern Statistics, Soft computing etc in a new direction.
