A polymath is a homo universalis, Renaissance man, universal genuis, wisdom 
man, a person of great learning and powers in many fields of study and 
practice.
He is a philosopher, scientist, engineer, architect, politician, physician, 
and mathematician at the same time. He's a unique collection of talents and 
human knowledge and skills, like Imhotep, Avicenna, Da Vinchi, Galilei, 
Leibniz, or Lomonosov.
Hardly the term  has bearing to people involved with some special 
mathematical problems.
