Author here. We documented how researchers in 6+ fields independently derived equivalent math for detecting tipping points — power grids, markets, cardiac rhythms, neural networks, traffic — mostly without knowing about each other's work.
The interesting question: which fields SHOULD be using this but aren't yet?
Supply chains. Cybersecurity. Software architecture. Chronic disease progression. Insurance. Urban infrastructure. All deal with cascade failures and tipping points. None have imported the formalism.
Plain-language version: Appendix B (page 17). Happy to answer questions.
