Dear Prof. Shidama,it's good to hear about these projects. All of them will make the library more complete with what is considered to be the basic mathematical apparatus. I guess one reasonable suggestion for a goal which could direct these efforts a bit could be e.g the Stokes' theorem.

Dear Prof.Josef Urban,The most basic, classic tool of differential geometry might be calculus of the multivariable. These are few in MML. For instance, the library of the partial derivative operator (partial derivatives for PartFunc of REAL n ,REAL ) was contributed as PDIFF_1 two weeks ago.We are making the library of this higher degree derivative now. Making the multivariable version of Riemann integra started last week. And the library of calculus for the complex functions had started last month. Yours very sincerely.

Here is the 500-pages long "systematic map" by John Morgan & Gang Tian: http://www.arxiv.org/ps/math/0607607 . To speak a bit rationally, I think that just developing basic differential geometry, and a bit more of Riemannian geometry would be fairly useful work.And I also very much agree with Andrzej: the reason for mentioning such a challenge is to get some idea about how far we currently are from it, and to try to figure out what it would take to do it with the current state of art (and perhaps start to think about what are the largest bottlenecks of the current state of art). It is true that having "the big project" in the back of one's mind could lead people to doing their formalizations in a more re-usable way, and to realize that the whole library and its maximal utility is the ultimate target (not a huge number of dissociated articles largely copying from each other, and hardly useful for anything).Best, Josef On Fri, 20 Apr 2007, shidama yasunari wrote:Dear Prof.Andrzej Trybulec,So, if we choose the formalization Perelman's proof as a challenge, who is ready to join the effort?Of course, we will completely cooperate in it. However, we need a systematic map. A lot of tools are necessary for it.

So, I support the Yasunaru Shidama approach. On the other hand, challenges are important, too. Not even of propaganda reason, but they enable to anicipate how the formalization should be done. I like Josef's idea. Whilst the four color problem seems to be marginal in topology (who needs it?), the Poicare hypothesis is quite important. I sort of remenber papers of the classification of 3-dimensional manifolds done modulo the Poincare hypothesis. And I do not know what is the status of the Zeeman hypothesis (the product of contractible 2-dimensional polyedron by the [.0,1.] segment is collapsible). It seems a bit stronger. So, if we choose the formalization Perelman's proof as a challenge, who is ready to join the effort?
