The TeXromancers

This group is now defunct. Unfortunately I cannot justify the manhours that go into the project anymore. We are also not correcting errors anymore, but if anyone wants to take over the github repositories etc Feel free to contact me.

This is a group that TeX's up old book and modernizes notation in them. The purpose is 2-fold, to make some of these older books easier to access and also easier to read. We include a lot of modern formatting, such as hyperlinks between different sections of the book, hyperlinks to citations, more modern fonts, all diagrams redrawn to be more modern, tikz etc. To make the book easier to read for everyone, we also produce a ``dyslexic friendly version'' of each book, using the font ``open dyslexic'' and changing some macros. We periodically update the book to fix typos and such. Following the repisotaries will notify you when a book updates, or alternatively I have put the dates of last update here, in American date format.

I also put many things from the bibliography onto my website for easier access. They are also on this page.

Here are our projects.

Adams blue book.This is a classic intro to stable homotopy theory, and our first project as a result. This was done July 2022. Dyslexic friendly version . Our TeX is also on github.

(last updated: 2/15/2023)

Hicks notes on differential geometry, a very good intro to the topic with a good selection of topics. This was done August 2022.dyslexic friendly version. Our TeX is on github.

(last updated: 10/15/2022)

Matsumura's Commutative Algebra another famous book, this time for commutative algebra. This was done August 2022. dyslexic friendly version. Our TeX is on github.

Milnor and Stasheff's ``characteristic classes'', an amazing book on an amazing topic. This was finished October 2022. dyslexic friendly version. The TeX is also on Github.

(last updated: 2/18/2023)

Lagarias and Odlyzko's "Effective Versions of The Chabetarev Density Theorem", an important paper and a smaller project, Finished November 2022. Dyslexic friendly version. The TeX is also on Github.(last updated: 1/1/2023)

Quillen's "Homotopical Algebra", a very influencial and highly requested book, Finished February 2023. Dyslexic firendly version. The TeX is also on Github. (last updated: 2/21/2023)

These are some sources I have either gotten scanned or put here for ease of access. A lot of these are TeXromancer projects or references for TeXromancer projects.
