Complete list of math branches

[ErichFranz]

I want to compile a list of every branch of mathematics, for my studies.

This is what I got from wiki:

1. Basic mathematics
2. Advanced mathematics
2.1 Pure mathematics
2.1.1 Algebra
2.1.2 Calculus and analysis
2.1.3 Geometry and topology
2.1.4 Combinatorics
2.1.5 Logic
2.1.6 Number theory
2.2 Applied mathematics
2.2.1 Dynamical systems and differential equations
2.2.2 Mathematical physics
2.2.3 Computing
2.2.4 Information theory and signal processing
2.2.5 Probability and statistics
2.2.6 Game theory
2.2.7 Operations research

Let me know if any are missing

• Algebraic geometry
• Linear algebra
• Category theory
• K-theory
• Combinatorics and Discrete Mathematics
• Ordered sets

Geometry

• Geometry
• Convex and discrete geometry
• Differential geometry

Analysis

• Calculus and Real Analysis:
  • Real functions
  • Measure theory and integration
  • Special functions
  • Finite differences and functional equations
  • Sequences and series
• Complex analysis
  • Complex variables
  • Potential theory

  • Global analysis, analysis on manifolds
• Functional analysis
  • Functional analysis
  • Fourier analysis
  • Abstract harmonic analysis
  • Integral transforms
  • Operator theory
• Numerical analysis and optimization
  • Numerical analysis
  • Approximations and expansions
