Math innovation, disruption and explanation

Working through explaining things carefully, while also considering other areas where web disruption has been evident, am better able to explain things in my own story.

So now can better put a context around noting figured out a better way to reduce two variable or also called binary quadratic Diophantine equations than Carl Gauss.

As actually used what I decided to call tautological spaces--getting to make up terminology is fun and a responsibility--with a process have explained quite a bit now.

The math doing the work, is as good as any mathematician can be, and demonstrably better.

The math actually does math better than any human.

Is a surprising, and very cool innovation that math can do math, so have carefully explained and demonstrated with a simple quadratic.

Given that I've had this approach since December 1999, is instructive to consider music industry and taxi industry with web disruption.

In music industry took the late Steve Jobs, through iTunes to allow consumers to purchase music for download. With taxi industry, fights are still ongoing, where key innovations are simple: booking and paying rides over a smartphone.

In mathematics which has great prestige, am sure is hard enough for any outsider who might be considered an interloper. But also to learn the math can DO mathematics? Maybe then the math becomes the greatest threat to mathematicians who first have to adjust to this reality, as of course the math will be better than them.

Greater ability with mathematical manipulation easily in the hands of ANYONE willing to learn some basic modular algebra techniques? More perspective on why there could be fights like elsewhere with disruptive innovation.

Also means people can go back over prior research if tautological spaces apply which in essence I did with Gauss himself, and found better.

And that's just one thing talking my disruption discovery with tautological spaces. I disrupted so many areas. Like even disrupted story around prime numbers. And also importantly disrupted story around packing of spheres with a modular approach so obvious I still puzzle over being first to find that one.

One thing that jumps out at me though about current mathematical institutional reality? Applied mathematics which of course HAS to work in the real world, is tiny in terms of researchers, compared to what is called pure math, where my own research raises doubts. But am wary of digging too deeply there, lately.

Have decided not to focus on what I call the social problem, which is the fight over acceptance until 2028, which is to allow the tone of my posts to be different. And also figure should be over by then, but if necessary then will switch back to addressing directly. Is weird to realize that only ten years might not be enough time. But at least I better understand why.

And at least for others who wonder, and also to put down what I just finally fully realized, am just part of the web disruptions occurring all over, while with me is with math. And yes, web has been a cool part of the discovery. Web has helped me figure things out rapidly, and share widely.
