The email thread in the distribution (axiom/book) is the source of some of the names. Others are people I have worked with who contributed time and effort. It is all in git.
This is all being pushed into the dustbin of history as https://axiommath.ai/ is now violating my common law trademark. I spoke with several trademark firms. They refused to take the case as it is clear I have no chance to win against a multi-million dollar company which appears to be formed as of January 2026. Worse yet, the CEO has a law degree. So expect any reference to Axiom and the people listed below will disappear from the web shortly. I am actively working on merging Axiom and LEAN but none of the work is open source as you know how well the whole "open source" thing went for me. :-) This list is included in every PDF at build time. Inclusion of names in the list of credits is based on historical information and is as accurate as possible. Inclusion of names does not in any way imply an endorsement but represents historical infuence on Axiom development.
