/math - Unified Math Capabilities

**One entry point for all computation and explanation.** I route to the right tool based on your request.

For formal proofs, use `/prove` instead.

Quick Examples

| You Say | I Use | |---------|-------| | "Solve x² - 4 = 0" | SymPy solve | | "Integrate sin(x) from 0 to π" | SymPy integrate | | "Eigenvalues of [[1,2],[3,4]]" | SymPy eigenvalues | | "Is x² + 1 > 0 for all x?" | Z3 prove | | "Convert 5 miles to km" | Pint | | "Explain what a functor is" | Category theory skill |

| Command | Use Case | |---------|----------| | `sat` | Is this satisfiable? | | `prove` | Is this always true? | | `optimize` | Find min/max subject to constraints |

Pint (Units)

uv run python "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/scripts/cc_math/pint_compute.py" convert <value> <from_unit> <to_unit>

Example: `convert 5 miles kilometers`

---

Math Router (Auto-Route)

uv run python "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/scripts/cc_math/math_router.py" route "<natural language request>"

Returns the exact command to run. Use when unsure which script.

Topic Skills (For Explanation)

When the request is "explain X" or "what is X", I reference these:

| Topic | Skill Location | Key Concepts | |-------|----------------|--------------| | **Abstract Algebra** | `math/abstract-algebra/` | Groups, rings, fields, homomorphisms | | **Category Theory** | `math/category-theory/` | Functors, natural transformations, limits | | **Complex Analysis** | `math/complex-analysis/` | Analytic functions, residues, contour integrals | | **Functional Analysis** | `math/functional-analysis/` | Banach spaces, operators, spectra | | **Linear Algebra** | `math/linear-algebra/` | Matrices, eigenspaces, decompositions | | **Mathematical Logic** | `math/mathematical-logic/` | Propositional, predicate, proof theory | | **Measure Theory** | `math/measure-theory/` | Lebesgue, σ-algebras, integration | | **Real Analysis** | `math/real-analysis/` | Limits, continuity, convergence | | **Topology** | `math/topology/` | Open sets, compactness, connectedness | | **ODEs/PDEs** | `math/odes-pdes/` | Differential equations, boundary problems | | **Optimization** | `math/optimization/` | Convex, LP, gradient methods | | **Numerical Methods** | `math/numerical-methods/` | Approximation, error analysis | | **Graph/Number Theory** | `math/graph-number-theory/` | Graphs, primes, modular arithmetic | | **Information Theory** | `math/information-theory/` | Entropy, coding, channels |

Routing Logic

I decide based on your request:

"solve/calculate/compute" → SymPy (exact symbolic)
"is X always true?" → Z3 (constraint proving)
"convert units" → Pint
"explain/what is" → Topic skill for context
"prove formally" → Redirect to /prove

Examples

Solve Equation

User: Solve x² - 5x + 6 = 0
Claude: uv run python "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/scripts/cc_math/sympy_compute.py" solve "x**2 - 5*x + 6" --var x
Result: x = 2 or x = 3

Compute Eigenvalues

User: Find eigenvalues of [[2, 1], [1, 2]]
Claude: uv run python "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/scripts/cc_math/sympy_compute.py" eigenvalues "[[2,1],[1,2]]"
Result: {1: 1, 3: 1}  (eigenvalue 1 with multiplicity 1, eigenvalue 3 with multiplicity 1)

Prove Inequality

User: Is x² + y² ≥ 2xy always true?
Claude: uv run python "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/scripts/cc_math/z3_solve.py" prove "x**2 + y**2 >= 2*x*y"
Result: PROVED (equivalent to (x-y)² ≥ 0)

Convert Units

User: How many kilometers in 26.2 miles?
Claude: uv run python "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/scripts/cc_math/pint_compute.py" convert 26.2 miles kilometers
Result: 42.16 km
