Mar 11, 2021 at 17:21 comment added Alexander Woo @SebastienPalcoux - That's a different project! (Lie \neq finite). But you've pointed to another good example.
Mar 11, 2021 at 14:25 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @MartinRubey: Yes, it makes sense for every rank. Your suggestion of journal is interesting, I did not know the concept of dynamic survey. The classification at rank 7, 8 or even 9 is a project, but it will requires a huge amont of extra works (both theoretical and computational). But it may be unclassifiable for all rank (that contains all finite groups, and much more).
Mar 11, 2021 at 12:48 comment added Martin Rubey @SebastienPalcoux I thought it might be conceivable that the classification could be extended some day. I know nothing about fusion categories, so I don't know whether rank 7 would make sense at all. I was just thinking about the Ramsey number survey.
Mar 11, 2021 at 11:17 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @AlexanderWoo: they wrote a book: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATLAS_of_Finite_Groups which now is updated as en electronic database : brauer.maths.qmul.ac.uk/Atlas/v3
Mar 11, 2021 at 3:25 comment added Alexander Woo The Atlas of Lie Groups is an example of such a project. What have they done?

Mar 11, 2021 at 0:01 comment added JoshuaZ Possibly "Mathematics of Computation" would be appropriate if the classification is computationally heavy.
Mar 10, 2021 at 21:30 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @MartinRubey: why are you saying that it is apparently not a complete classification? It is complete up to rank 6. A classification for all ranks may be unreachable.
Mar 10, 2021 at 21:27 comment added Martin Rubey I am not sure, but since this is apparently not a complete classification, maybe a dynamic survey in the electronic journal of combinatorics would fit.
Mar 10, 2021 at 21:00 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @NeilStrickland: yes, all the data will be available in this webpage: thphys.nuim.ie/AnyonWiki/index.php/Main_Page But what about peer-reviewing?

Mar 10, 2021 at 20:53 comment added Neil Strickland For a project of this type I would say that the result of the classification (and not just the code behind it) should also be primarily presented in machine-digestible form, preferably with a choice of formats and a convenient interface for searching etc. A 60 page list of cases in PDF form is not very useful.

Mar 10, 2021 at 18:36 comment added user1504 This seems like a situation where the paper should include/point to the computer code used to generate the classification. It seems like the referees job would mainly be to verify the code.

Mar 10, 2021 at 18:10 comment added LSpice Some more specificity might help: you say "say algebraic", but is that actually the situation you have in mind, or just an example? In fact, why not say exactly what you are classifying, for most precision? Which journals accept very long technical papers very much depends on their subject. (EDIT: Turns out I just said what @SamHopkins was quicker to say. :-) )
Mar 10, 2021 at 18:10 comment added Sam Hopkins Hard to say without more specifics about the significance of the result, but it's worth noting that there are many online journals which essentially don't have page limits. Of course getting someone to agree to referee a paper like this might be difficult...
