Reservoir Geometry: Riemannian Manifolds in Oil and Gas

Darcy's law recast as geodesic flow on a Riemannian manifold (R,g)(\mathcal{R}, g), pressure diffusion as the Laplace–Beltrami equation, and permeability tensor interpolation via SPD(3)\mathrm{SPD}(3) geodesics, with no_std\texttt{no\_std} Rust for embedded well-site monitoring.

Maxwell's Equations and Gauge Theory: Electromagnetism as a Principal Bundle

Four languages for one theory: vector calculus, differential forms, spacetime algebra, and principal fiber bundles. From the classical field equations to gauge invariance, the Aharonov-Bohm effect, Yang-Mills theory, and Dirac monopoles.

Navier–Stokes: Derivation in R3\mathbb{R}^3 and on a Riemannian Manifold

An end-to-end derivation of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations from continuum mechanics axioms, geometric reformulation via differential forms, coordinate-free lift to a Riemannian manifold, the Millennium Prize problem, functional analysis, and geometric algebra.

Price as Geometry: Resolution, Coarse-Graining, and the Structure of Market Noise

A rigorous tour through stationary and non-stationary models of price evolution, with geometric analysis at the forefront. From the random walk null and Black-Scholes as flat geometry, through mean reversion as curved Riemannian diffusion, wavelets, geometric harmonics, and information geometry, anchored throughout by empirical evidence from BTC/ETH millisecond data.
