Cayley, Dedekind, and Dirichlet: Classical Algebra and Arithmetic LaTeX Drafts

This record is a public-facing shelf for modern LaTeX working drafts of selected classical algebra, arithmetic, and number-theory manuscripts by Arthur Cayley, Richard Dedekind, and P. G. Lejeune Dirichlet. Top-level PDFs are organized by author, work, and usable slice so readers can download individual files directly. Source TeX, build notes, audit outputs, scan witnesses, and provenance material are collected in ZIP artifacts.

Status at a glance.

• Cayley material: retained as draft/provenance and repair material; no Cayley range is currently promoted as source-faithful. Inherited Cayley filenames that say Complete, Source-Checked, or critical are obsolete quality labels, not current source-faithfulness claims. Current Cayley PDFs/TeX should be checked against source scans before use; no Cayley range is presently promoted as source-faithful until a later page-by-page glyph/source audit re-promotes that exact range.
• Cayley broader working material: the large artifact ZIP preserves source trees, broad working PDFs, TeX chunks, rendered slice PDFs, and audit material for continuation.
• Dedekind: early source-witnessed coverage; the latest update adds a source-witnessed German segment and English translation for Stetigkeit und irrationale Zahlen through §§1-4, with TeX and scan witness in the compact artifact ZIP. Earlier Band I-III working drafts remain present.
• Dirichlet: initial source-witnessed coverage; the latest update adds a source-witnessed German working draft and English translation of Über die Stabilität des Gleichgewichts, with TeX and source-page witnesses. The older selected-works reader remains a broad working draft rather than the current source of truth.
• Mathematical proofreading: working drafts for checking and correction, not certified critical editions.

Workflow. Public-domain scans and witnesses are converted into TeX drafts, checked into readable PDFs, and packaged with source artifacts for inspection and correction. Large raw/provenance material remains on the main project preservation record; this shelf stays reader-facing and comparatively lean.

Corrections and contributions. Source comparisons, LaTeX fixes, translation corrections, and reader-facing issue reports can be suggested through the GitHub mirror via issues or pull requests: https://github.com/KokunoYumeto/modern-latex-manuscripts.
