# Mathematics Database Expansion Plan

## Overview

Expand the mathematics-database-table and processes to include:
- **Topic sections**: Complex analysis, complex analytic dynamics, landmark theorems (FLT, Poincaré, Riemann)
- **Named mathematicians**: Historical and modern figures with associated charts
- **Formal verification**: Lean proofs and proof assistants
- **AI mathematics**: Recent AI-assisted results
- **Overlapping collections**: Processes appear in multiple named sets (topic + mathematician + historical)

---

## 1. Metadata Schema Extension

### Add `namedCollections` Array to Each Process

```json
{
  "id": "number_theory-fermat-last-theorem",
  "name": "Fermat's Last Theorem",
  "subcategory": "number_theory",
  "namedCollections": ["fermat", "landmark_theorems", "wiles", "number_theory_milestones"]
}
```

**Rationale**: A process can belong to many collections. Examples:
- *Euclid's Elements* → `["euclid", "geometry_topology", "classical_geometry", "axiomatic_systems"]`
- *Galois Theory* → `["galois", "abstract_algebra", "field_theory", "landmark_theorems"]`
- *Sieve of Eratosthenes* → `["eratosthenes", "number_theory", "algorithms", "classical_algorithms"]`

### Optional: Add `collections` Index in metadata.json

```json
{
  "collections": {
    "archimedes": { "name": "Archimedes", "description": "…", "processIds": ["…"] },
    "fermat": { "name": "Pierre de Fermat", "description": "…", "processIds": ["…"] }
  }
}
```

Either derive from processes (scan `namedCollections`) or maintain explicitly.

## 8. Overlap Handling

### 8.1 Process in Multiple Collections

Example: **Fermat's Last Theorem**
- `subcategory`: `landmark_theorems`
- `namedCollections`: `["fermat", "wiles", "number_theory", "landmark_theorems"]`

Appears in:
- Landmark Theorems table section
- Fermat collection page
- Wiles collection page
- Number Theory subcategory filter

### 8.2 Collection Landing Pages

Create `processes/collections/` (or similar):
- `collections/fermat.html` — lists all processes with `namedCollections` containing `fermat`
- `collections/euler.html`
- `collections/landmark_theorems.html`
- etc.

These can be generated from metadata or static HTML with links derived from metadata.

### 8.3 Table Filtering (Optional)

Add filter dropdown: "Show by collection: All | Fermat | Euler | Landmark Theorems | …"

---

## 11. Summary: New Content Counts (Estimate)

| Category              | New Charts (approx) |
|-----------------------|---------------------|
| Complex Analysis      | 4                   |
| Landmark Theorems     | 3–5                 |
| Named Mathematicians  | 15–25 (many overlap)|
| Formal Verification   | 4–6                 |
| AI Mathematics        | 3–5                 |
| **Total new**         | **~30–45**          |

Many of these overlap (e.g., Fermat chart counts for Fermat, Wiles, Landmark Theorems, Number Theory). The `namedCollections` array is the key to supporting this overlap cleanly.
