It’s true that mathematical literature can be daunting to navigate. Many papers and textbooks assume a lot of background knowledge or gloss over foundational assumptions, which can leave you feeling lost. The lack of standardized notation and organization only adds to the challenge.
For searching mathematical concepts, here are some resources that might help:
1. **MathSciNet**: A comprehensive database of mathematical literature that includes reviews, citations, and links to articles. It's quite thorough, though access often requires a subscription.
2. **arXiv**: A preprint repository where many mathematicians upload their papers. It’s great for finding recent developments and can sometimes lead you to foundational material.
3. **Zentralblatt MATH**: Similar to MathSciNet, it’s a database of mathematics literature, offering reviews and a useful search function.
4. **Google Scholar**: While not perfect, it can be quite helpful for finding academic papers and citations across various disciplines.
5. **Stack Exchange (Math)**: This community-driven Q&A site can be a fantastic place to ask for specific concepts, theorems, or assumptions. Often, someone has tackled a similar question before.
6. **Wikipedia**: While it shouldn’t be your only source, it often provides a good overview and can lead you to references for deeper study.
7. **Project Euclid**: Offers access to journals and books in the field of mathematics and statistics, with many articles available for free.
It can be a bit of a hunt to find exactly what you need, but combining these resources can often yield better results!
