mathfin-tables-figures
Use when preparing figures, numerical tables, theorem maps, appendix exhibits, and algorithm displays for a Mathematical Finance manuscript, ensuring every exhibit supports a rigorous result rather than acting as stand-alone empirical evidence.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Tables & Figures (mathfin-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - A numerical section needs figures or tables - A proof-heavy manuscript needs diagrams, assumption maps, or appendix organization - Exhibits risk looking like empirical finance rather than theorem support ## Exhibit rules Every exhibit should answer: which theorem, proposition, algorithm, or modelling insight does this support? 1. **Tie figures to formal results.** A convergence plot should cite the theorem or rate it illustrates. 2. **Report numerical settings.** Grid, time step, paths, tolerance, truncation, seed, and software version belong in the caption or appendix. 3. **Keep tables small.** Use them for parameter values, convergence rates, boundary comparisons, or sensitivity to assumptions. 4. **Move detail to appendices.** The author guidelines encourage detailed mathematical analysis in appendices; use them for long derivations and extended numerical diagnostics. 5. **Avoid empirical-style claims.** A calibration illustration does not establish an empirical result unless the paper is designed for that, which this venue generally is not. ## Good exhibits - Error decay against the proven rate - Free-boundary sha

What does the mathfin-tables-figures skill do?
Use when preparing figures, numerical tables, theorem maps, appendix exhibits, and algorithm displays for a Mathematical Finance manuscript, ensuring every exhibit supports a rigorous result rather than acting as stand-alone empirical evidence.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill mathfin-tables-figures --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
