In this page, a list of our current active projects is available. You can join us by contributing with articles and essays on the topics here listed. We are working to make all Enzo Valenzetti's files available in electronic format. They soon will be all available in this page.

The original goal of Mathematical Forecasting Initiative was to accurately predict future events and trends by analysing current states and creating mathematical models. The studies in this area have recently been updated in order to take into account the occurrence of high-impact, hard-to-predict, and rare events that are beyond the realm of normal expectations (Black Swans).

Statistics is currently used in parapsychological studies to distinguish between the role of psychic powers and the one of randomness during scientific tests. Moreover, mathematical tricks can be at work behind the curtains when paranormal phenomena seem to happen.

Falling under the category of "recreational mathematics", the mathematics of magic tricks and puzzles is a powerful tool of investigation of the liminal area between Reality and Illusion; it may reveal the fascinating aesthetics of numerical structures and the inner secrets of deductive reasoning and creativity.

Orthoteny Principle is the hypothesis that flying saucers travel in straight lines. Originally proposed in 1954 by French ufologist Aimé Michel (1919-1992), it was the first mathematical approach to flying saucers phenomenon, allowing researchers to study it from a statistical point of view.
