Obviousely that different civilizations use different symbols to write Pithagor theorem or Shredinger equation - nothing links different civilisations to tell them to use the same letters.

But it does not matter - the solution of math equation does not depend on the language/notation - it will be always the right angle triangle (solution of Pithagor equation) or say, hydrogen atom, (or DNA as the solution of the Shredinger equation for bunch of positive and negative charges), etc.

So, actually the situation is vice-versa: HUMANS (and of course, all other aliens too) ARE MATH INVENTION (as they consist of DNA and other mathematical solutions and they act in exact accordance with/as DNA and mathematical laws like energy conservation, gravitational inverse square law, Coulomb inverse square law, wave uncertainty principle, etc. prescribe them to act - with no single violation or deviation from these mathematical laws).
