Read Diagram showing how areas of math relate to each other by John D. CookJohn D. Cook (johndcook.com)

In my previous post, I discussed how number theory and topology relate to other areas of math. Part of that was to show a couple diagrams from  Jean Dieudonné’s book Panorama of Pure Mathematics, as seen by N. Bourbaki. That book has only small star-shaped diagrams considering one area of math at a time. I’ve created a diagram that pastes these local views into one grand diagram. Along the way I’ve done a little editing because the original diagrams were not entirely consistent.

Here’s a condensed view of the graph. You can find the full image here.
