Work plan white paper

The topics below are part of the division of mathematical knowledge to subdisciplines; they come from the 2000 Math. subject classification of the AMS [1] and ZMATH [2], with some minor edits. Each of these top level topics is a big subject, and it is not necessarily our first priority to write a long article on these entries. Our object with outlining this list is to establish a framework. We recommend that when you write a new article, you should try to find a proper node for it. Do not hesitate to put a link for an article you want to work on soon. Feel free to do the same to request a particular important topic to be covered.

Remarks:

  • We kept the original MSC numbering in places.
  • No, of course its not the whole MSC tree - not even close to it. We should eventually put as much of it as appropriate.
  • In some places we really expect some other workgroups (usually the physicists) to do the work alongside - we state where.

Caveats:

  • Do not copy articles from wikipedia without carefully reading them, verifying both scope and focus. Besides, why not consider writing your article from scratch? Often this permits a better logical structure and more coherence. See Citizendium Pilot:How to convert Wikipedia articles to Citizendium articles
  • Keep in mind three audiences when writing an article: general readers, math students and professionals.
