The equations that appear on the whiteboards in TBBT are from widely varied fields of physics and chemistry. They cover a much wider scope than a typical scientist would actually be working on. Of course, Sheldon is ...

The person you write about, the consultant, UCLA Professor David Saltzberg, has a blog that explains the mathematics of the show episodes. Giving a quick glance, it appears there is an entry for each episode that explains the scientific theme(s) brought up during the show. None of the few I read say anything about progression of the math through a series of ...

Without any real evidence, it is my experience that when I have noticed Rajesh talking to women, he always has a drink within reach. Most times in early episodes, it is in his hand suggesting easy writing, but lately the placement is more subtle. I always look for that drink to be within reach, or if not, back to the last place he sat or entered from. ...

The episode starts with the gang having a meal and Raj is seen drinking out of a beer bottle before he starts talking (and judging from what's on the table he is the only one drinking alcohol)

In the bonus material of season 1 or 2, there is this item about the scientist who provides these equations and the material for it. I remember he said that the problems that are written down, are recent problems that are brought up/solved in recent papers in the respective fields of Sheldon/Leonard/Raj.

Ok, I have no sources right here right now, but I remember that in first season it was some kind of "progression" on his work... or, more than progression a "connection". But don't take this show too serious, specially not after season 2, a lot of things are just a random mix of disconnected thoeries, hypothesis, etc.
