Math reasoning
Skill dongzhigang13305312738-art/paper-skills/math-reasoning
Formal mathematical reasoning for research papers — derive equations, write proofs, formalize problem settings, select statistical tests, and generate LaTeX math notation. Use when the user needs mathematical derivations, theorem proofs, notation tables, or statistical analysis formalization.From its SKILL.md

3 things to look at
- 22 days oldThe repository was created 22 days ago. New is not bad, but a brand new repository carrying a familiar-sounding name is the shape a typosquat arrives in, and there has been no time for anyone else to find a problem with it.
- no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
- 0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

Mathematical Reasoning
Perform rigorous mathematical reasoning and produce publication-quality LaTeX output.
Input
$0— Task type:derive,prove,formalize,stats,notation,verify$1— Context: equation, theorem statement, problem description, or data description
Tasks
derive — Step-by-step equation derivation
Show every intermediate step. Justify each with the rule applied. Box final result with \boxed{}. Number important equations with \label{eq:name}.
prove — Formal theorem proof
Use appropriate technique: direct, contradiction, induction, construction, or cases. See references/proof-templates.md for LaTeX templates.
formalize — Problem setting formalization
Convert informal description into formal mathematical framework with: variable definitions, domain/range specifications, assumptions, objective function.
stats — Statistical test selection
Use the decision tree in references/notation-guide.md to select appropriate tests. Report p-values, effect sizes, confidence intervals.
notation — Generate notation table
Create a \begin{table} with all symbols used in the paper. Use standard ML notation from references/notation-guide.md.
verify — Check mathematical correctness
Verify: dimensional consistency, boundary cases, gradient computations, notation consistency across sections.
References
- Standard ML notation + statistical tests:
~/.claude/skills/math-reasoning/references/notation-guide.md - Proof templates and theorem environments:
~/.claude/skills/math-reasoning/references/proof-templates.md
Rules
- Define ALL symbols before first use: "Let $\mathcal{X}$ denote..."
- Use consistent notation throughout the paper
- Number equations that are referenced later
- Use
\tag{reason}for key derivation steps - State assumptions explicitly
- Cite lemmas and prior results used in proofs
