There are among us with extremely strong mathematical background.

Could you list for us a categorisation of the five main areas your
libraries focus on.  Please use the standard classification
from https://msc2020.org/MSC_2020.pdf

Example List

05 Combinatorics
51 Geometry
60 Probability
62 Statistics

You could focus upon devising the library framework.  Although your
mathematical background might not be strong, your elisp should be.

I will focus on what can be included for a first release.  But I need
approval from at least two others (e.g. Eli, Richard, Stefan, Michael).
