In recent years, the study of mathematics in other disciplines to apply get more frequently and then also produced a "mathematization" of the corresponding concept. This text "research on application of mathematics in social science ", on the mathematical thinking and mathematical methods in the field of social science research application, is divided into causes, manifestations and significance of three parts.The development of mathematics to natural science no doubt play a important role in promoting, the development of social science also play a pivotal role. On this issue, suggested that in addition has a certain objective necessity, the issue also shows the breadth of its unique research value. The mathematics in social science, not just the relationship between the application and be applied, it also relates to the relationship between the natural and social science to re-examine, involving the relationship between mathematics and philosophy, but also related to the philosophy of mathematics included in the meaning in-depth study. Research on the subject will help us to strengthen the two disciplines of mathematics and social science know-how, help us to grasp the overall system of scientific knowledge, but also help to reveal the natural and social science the development of common law. Based on the mathematical application of social science research, this study attempts to explore the field of building blocks, their own modest contribution.Article uses descriptive research method, literature study, qualitative analysis, research methods of thinking applied to the feasibility of mathematics applied to social science, application of mathematics in the field of social science research and the significance of mathematics used in social science research. The first part illustrate the feasibility of mathematics applied to social science from the "theoretical foundation", "internal cause" and "external cause" three areas. The second part introduced the mathematics in economics, political science, sociology and humanities fields such application. After analyzing the causes and manifestations, the last part of the article discusses the "math for social science" far-reaching significance.Full text of the statement on these issues after the analysis shows the author's point of view as follows:Social science research into not only can be applied to mathematics, but also in mathematics has played a leap forward after the fullest role of development. And mathematics, as a subjects, a class method, a research tool, a mode of thinking, in a simple application, it can also and should rise to the philosophical level, its "mathematical thinking" model applied to problems in other areas of thinking and analysis among the significance of its methodology to guide the more disciplines solve the problem. This is a "application of mathematics to social science research" study of sublimation, but also the most meaningful aspect of this research.
