This group blog, together with its associated wiki, is intended to host “polymath” projects – massively collaborative mathematical research projects. The ground rules for such projects can be found here.
Note that LaTeX is supported in the comments of this blog. Unfortunately, comment editing and preview is not available; you will need to contact a moderator or administrator to fix a comment.
Discussion on the design and format of polymath projects can be made here. Discussion of the rules, organisation, philosophy, and strategy of these projects can be made here. LaTeX questions or sandbox experiments can be made here. Technical blog questions can be made as comments to this page. Any questions, comments, or requests that do not fit anywhere else can go on this page.
If you wish to make your own polymath project proposal, you can either make your own blog post for the proposal (and, if it is a wordpress blog, use the tag or category “polymath proposals” so that it will show up in this list), or to put it on this wiki page. You can also discuss the proposal on this thread.
