　　Abstract: In the long development course of the western aesthetics, the relationship between science and aesthetics and especially between mathematics and aesthetics is highly closer. One of the remarkable characteristics of the ancient Greek culture is that the people had a greater interest than other nations in raising questions on nature. Because the people were not satisfied with the imagination in the myth and poetic world, they attempted to rationally explain natural orders, evolution and movement. The ancient Greek philosophers would make researches on the aesthetics when studying science. As one the ancient Greek representatives of the origin of the western culture, Aristotle was not only a philosopher, but also a great scientist founding multiple natural subjects, and his scientific thought and aesthetic theory are intrinsically correlated.
