Dennis P. Sullivan —
Work Algorithms

A bibliographic reconstruction of Sullivan's working methods across geometric topology, localization, rational homotopy, Kleinian groups, conformal dynamics, foliations, string topology, differential cohomology, fluids, and finite-difference models. Each paper, MIT-note unit, book chapter, or seminar unit is treated as a case; strategy labels are overlapping, so histogram percentages mean case prevalence and need not sum to 100%.

Research premise

This page reconstructs a plausible Sullivan work algorithm from public bibliographic evidence. It does not reproduce papers or books. A case is a thesis/result abstraction: an official publication, MIT-note section, book chapter, seminar unit, or lecture-style topic is classified by the methods it appears to deploy.

The corpus uses the Stony Brook publication list as its primary spine and extends it with Sullivan's MIT notes, string topology programme, CUNY seminar themes, and late fluid/computation papers. Because cases carry several strategy tags, prevalence percentages intentionally need not sum to 100%.

Histogram width is count / 300 cases. These are overlapping method labels, not a probability simplex.
