These are scientific software tools that have been built and deployed. Each one started as a request from a researcher who needed it. The tool is free for the requestor.

Optimal Income Tax Simulator

Public Finance / Economics

Computes the revenue-maximising or welfare-maximising top marginal tax rate using the Saez (2001) formula. Given an elasticity of taxable income, a Pareto parameter for the income distribution, and a social welfare weight, the simulator outputs the optimal top rate with a full Laffer curve and sensitivity analysis table. Empirical presets for the US, France, UK, and Denmark are included.

Target Audience

Economists, policy researchers, public finance academics, and anyone working with optimal tax theory

Highlights

  • Implements the Saez (2001) formula with full Laffer curve visualisation
  • Empirical presets for US, France, UK, and Denmark based on published literature
  • Sensitivity analysis table across ranges of ε and a
  • Shareable links — parameters encoded in the URL hash
  • Citable output with a built-in citation generator

Unknotting Number Calculator

Computational Knot Theory

Given a knot in any standard notation (PD code, braid word, DT notation, torus knot, or Gauss code), determine its unknotting number u(K) — the minimum number of crossing changes required to produce the unknot. Implements a three-layer algorithm combining the τ invariant from Heegaard Floer homology, the knot determinant via the Fox coloring matrix, and a diagram search using Reidemeister moves.

Target Audience

Researchers, mathematicians, and academics in topology and knot theory

Highlights

  • Handles knots up to 100 crossings in under 1 second
  • Verified against 5,997 knots from the KnotInfo database with 99.97% accuracy
  • Supports five input formats: PD code, braid word, DT notation, torus knot, Gauss code
  • Developed as a solution to the Epoch FrontierMath Open Problem

Structural Connectivity Classifier

Spectral Graph Theory · Multi-Domain
Open Tool

Computes the Fiedler value λ₂ (algebraic connectivity) and Fiedler vector for any user-supplied network. Classifies the network's structural regime (disconnected / fragile / moderate / robust), shows the exact distance to the fragmentation boundary, and provides proved Cheeger inequality bounds. Domain-aware interpretation for neuroscience, ecology, epidemiology, economics, social networks, and power grids.

Highlights

  • Fiedler value λ₂ — proved algebraic connectivity (Fiedler 1973)
  • Fiedler vector — natural network partition and fragmentation direction
  • Cheeger inequality bounds — proved two-sided geometric verification (Alon 1986)
  • 8 example networks from 7 domains with known analytical values
  • Full eigenspectrum visualisation for all n eigenvalues
  • Domain interpretation: neuroscience, ecology, epidemiology, economics, social, power

Neuroscience–Economics Geometric Structure

Stochastic Processes · Decision Theory · Game Theory
Open Tool

Five formally proven equations in neuroscience and economics are the same equations. The Drift-Diffusion Model and Real Options Theory share identical stochastic differential equations. Wald’s Identity and the Optional Stopping Theorem are the same conservation law. Replicator Dynamics and Evolutionary Game Theory are formally equivalent. This tool visualises the unified geometric structure and computes from the proven mathematics.

Highlights

  • DDM / SPRT — identical to Real Options investment threshold (Bogacz 2006, Dixit & Pindyck 1994)
  • Wald’s Identity — same conservation law as the Optional Stopping Theorem (Wald 1945, Doob 1953)
  • Replicator Dynamics — formally equivalent to Evolutionary Game Theory (Taylor & Jonker 1978)
  • Cramér-Rao bound — Fisher information as Riemannian metric (Rao 1945, Cramér 1946)
  • Fokker-Planck gradient flow — structural isomorphism with Black-Scholes (JKO 1998)
  • Calculator: DDM, Wald Identity, Replicator Dynamics, Fisher Information — peer-reviewed math only

Synaptic Plasticity — Geometric Structure

Information Geometry · BCM Theory · LTP/LTD
Open Tool

Synaptic plasticity (LTP/LTD) in hippocampal CA1 synapses is a statistical manifold equipped with the Fisher information metric, with a stratified boundary defined by the BCM modification threshold. This identification was confirmed by M4 lateral convergence across three independent research traditions. Explore all 10 anatomy layers, 15 domain faces, 14 mathematical structures, 9 derivations, and 6 open problems.

Highlights

  • Fisher information metric — the unique Riemannian metric on the space of synaptic distributions (Rao 1945)
  • BCM threshold stratification — LTP/LTD boundary formally proven (Bienenstock, Cooper & Munro 1982)
  • Natural gradient learning — parametrization-invariant synaptic rule (Kreutzer et al. 2022, eLife)
  • Energy-precision trade-off — Fisher information and memory lifetime at bistability onset (Karbowski 2021)
  • BCM equivalence to projection pursuit — formally proven (Intrator & Cooper 1992)
  • Calculator: Fisher information, Cramér-Rao bound, BCM threshold dynamics — peer-reviewed math only
