The term Theoretical Minimum originated with renowned Russian physicist Lev Landau. From Wikipedia:

Landau developed a comprehensive exam called the "Theoretical Minimum" which students were expected to pass before admission to the school. The exam covered all aspects of theoretical physics, and between 1934 and 1961 only 43 candidates passed. "
