All of the science, less of the pain.

Bring Lemma the work that takes a week when you only have a morning. You direct the approach and approve the plan. Lemma does the work: managed, verified, and reported back.

What you can do with Lemma

Explore ideas

An idea shouldn’t need an afternoon of setup just to look at it. Ask, from a derivation to a design trade-off, and get back something that runs.

Understand

  • Guided exploration

    A topic built up in a live notebook, at your level, one runnable step at a time.

    “Walk me through the quantum Hall effect in graphene, building the Landau-level spectrum step by step.”

  • Derivation

    Results derived from first principles, alternative routes compared.

    “Derive the Berry curvature of a gapped Dirac cone, and show the Kubo-formula route as a cross-check.”

  • Problem solving

    A concrete answer to a concrete question, worked end to end.

    “How many helium balloons would it take to lift a laptop?”

Interrogate

  • Parameter exploration

    Sweeps, scaling laws, regime boundaries.

    “Simulate the Beddington–DeAngelis predator-prey model and draw a phase diagram over its parameters.”

  • Scenario comparison

    Designs, models, or platforms side by side, with the trade-offs shown.

    “Compare a Si and a SiN grating coupler at 1550 nm on efficiency and bandwidth.”

  • Experiment planning

    Measurement plans with error budgets, before spending lab time.

    “Plan a magnetotransport run to resolve the fractional states, with an error budget for the field sweep.”

Build & simulate

Build the simulation you’ve been dreaming of. No environment setup, no boilerplate, and no solver docs in the way. Describe it, and watch every step run.

Computational methods

  • Model building

    Describe a device or a phenomenon and get a working model of it, built and run.

    “Build a model of a Gunn diode and show its negative differential resistance.”

  • Model comparison

    Competing models ranked by information criteria.

    “Simulate two-carrier magnetoresistance data, then rank single- vs two-carrier Drude fits by AIC.”

  • Paper reproduction

    Rebuild a paper as a live notebook reproducing its results.

    “Rebuild Castilla et al.'s graphene THz detector paper (arXiv:1905.01881) and confirm the key figure.”

Mathematics

  • Equation checking

    Dimensional analysis and symbolic verification of derivations.

    “Derive the damped-pendulum frequency, checking units at each step, and flag any sign errors.”

  • Formal proof

    Machine-checked proofs in Lean 4 with mathlib, for the ultimate layer of rigour.

    “Prove in Lean that the energy functional E[ψ] = ∫|∇ψ|² + V(x)|ψ|² dx is convex.”

Optimization

  • Numerical optimization

    Constrained optimization, ODE/DAE simulation, optimal control.

    “Find the layer thicknesses that minimize reflection at 1550 nm under a ±20 nm fab tolerance.”

  • Inverse design

    Gradient-based design through differentiable simulation.

    “Inverse-design a compact waveguide taper reaching >99% transmission with differentiable FDTD.”

Solvers

Review & draft

Days of checking a paper’s math by hand, done in minutes. Verify the papers you read, draft the ones you write.

Read

  • Document analysis

    Analyze equations, figures, tables, and claims extracted from any given document.

    “Pull every equation, figure, and claim out of Kim et al.'s photonics review (arXiv:1911.12756).”

  • Validation report

    A structured report on a paper's references, equations and claims, scoped to whichever you want checked.

    “Generate a validation report on the equations and references of arXiv:1610.02365.”

Write

  • Manuscripts

    LaTeX drafted from your own results, bibliography included, compiled to PDF.

    “Simulate a Lindblad master equation, then draft a LaTeX methods section from the results.”

  • Grant proposals

    Drafted against specific calls, grounded in your results.

    “Draft an EIC Pathfinder concept for a graphene THz detector, grounded in a feasibility estimate.”

  • Slides

    Talk-ready decks, built from a paper or from your own results.

    “Build a .pptx deck reviewing arXiv:1610.02365 (photonic deep learning).”
