I fully agree, assuming your definition of "mathematical" allows multiple techniques, such as pattern database and both local and global search. And they might be techniques that work regardless of board size. Isn't the discovery of such mathematical solutions, or the discovery of the methods to discover such solutions, the reason we all spend so much time and effort on computer go?
