Just to give you an idea of what the math looks like in the Higg Mechanism, see my blog:

Well, it's not as if Peter Higgs made one of the most fundamental discoveries in physics, or ...

Oh, huh?

I think I would have been very disappointed if they hadn't awarded it.

That's not math!  There's no numbers!  Just a bunch of letters and squiggly lines!

You mean I've spent 7 years in university to produce a "bunch of letters and squiggly lines!"   #-o  :-k  :twisted:

Seven years, and you just produced about the same stuff Einstein produced.

For one, Einstein took 10 years to develop GR: and for two, he never had to learn QFT. So there.  8-)
