The Exterior Calculus

Provides functionality for working with tensors, alternating forms, wedge products, Stokes's theorem, and related concepts from the exterior calculus. Uses 'disordR' discipline (Hankin, 2022, ). The canonical reference would be M. Spivak (1965, ISBN:0-8053-9021-9) "Calculus on Manifolds". To cite the package in publications please use Hankin (2022) .

Knot Diagrams using Bezier Curves

Makes visually pleasing diagrams of knot projections using optimized Bezier curves.

The Lorentz Transform in Relativistic Physics

The Lorentz transform in special relativity; also the gyrogroup structure of three-velocities. Performs active and passive transforms and has the ability to use units in which the speed of light is not unity. Includes some experimental functionality for celerity and rapidity. For general relativity, see the 'schwarzschild' package.

A Suite of Routines for Working with Jordan Algebras

A Jordan algebra is an algebraic object originally designed to study observables in quantum mechanics. Jordan algebras are commutative but non-associative; they satisfy the Jordan identity. The package follows the ideas and notation of K. McCrimmon (2004, ISBN:0-387-95447-3) "A Taste of Jordan Algebras". To cite the package in publications, please use Hankin (2023) .

The Weyl Algebra

A suite of routines for Weyl algebras. Notation follows Coutinho (1995, ISBN 0-521-55119-6, "A Primer of Algebraic D-Modules"). Uses 'disordR' discipline (Hankin 2022 ). To cite the package in publications, use Hankin 2022 .

Antiassociative Algebra

Methods to deal with the free antiassociative algebra over the reals with an arbitrary number of indeterminates. Antiassociativity means that (xy)z = -x(yz). Antiassociative algebras are nilpotent with nilindex four (Remm, 2022, ) and this drives the design and philosophy of the package. Methods are defined to create and manipulate arbitrary elements of the antiassociative algebra, and to extract and replace coefficients. A vignette is provided.

Arbitrary Dimensional Clifford Algebras

A suite of routines for Clifford algebras, using the 'Map' class of the Standard Template Library. Canonical reference: Hestenes (1987, ISBN 90-277-1673-0, "Clifford algebra to geometric calculus"). Special cases including Lorentz transforms, quaternion multiplication, and Grassmann algebra, are discussed. Vignettes presenting conformal geometric algebra, quaternions and split quaternions, dual numbers, and Lorentz transforms are included. The package follows 'disordR' discipline.

Manipulate Virtual Functions

If f <- function(x){x^2} and g <- function(x){x+1} it is a constant source of annoyance that "f+g" is not defined. Package 'vfunc' allows you to do this, and we have (f+g)(2) returning 5. The other arithmetic operators are similarly implemented. A wide class of coding bugs is eliminated.

Setup and connect to 'OpenTripPlanner'

Setup and connect to 'OpenTripPlanner' (OTP) < http://www.opentripplanner.org/>. OTP is an open source platform for multi-modal and multi-agency journey planning written in 'Java'. The package allows you to manage a local version or connect to remote OTP server to find walking, cycling, driving, or transit routes. This package has been peer-reviewed by rOpenSci (v. 0.2.0.0).

Ensemble Platform for Species Distribution Modeling

Functions for species distribution modeling, calibration and evaluation, ensemble of models, ensemble forecasting and visualization. The package permits to run consistently up to 10 single models on a presence/absences (resp presences/pseudo-absences) dataset and to combine them in ensemble models and ensemble projections. Some bench of other evaluation and visualization tools are also available within the package.
