Disclaimer: I work in this field.

This is a very brief, high-level overview. It weirdly dives deep into some less-relevant topics and glosses over a LOT of things.

It is not irrelevant, but not terribly reliable either. The "Mathematics" in the title is self-evidently clickbait.

YMMV.

Would you be open to do one yourself and share it? (Not sarcastic, just asking)

		Honestly, to do anything like justice to this topic would require a publishable academic paper. That is something I simply do not have time for. There are (at the very least) 2 reasonable places I can think of off the top of my head in which to look around for answers -- both are organizations that run annual meetings on the topic of geothermal energy. One is the Geothermal Rising professional organization [1]. There is a claim on the website that the papers from the annual meeting (roughly a month back) are available for free download by anybody. I can't find the actual head-link for those papers. A search engine is your friend. (I would not trust an LLM for this particular job.) A second one is the Stanford Geothermal Workshop [2]. That is also an annual meeting. Again, use a search engine. Sorry to not be more helpful, but this is a pretty large topic. [1] https://www.geothermal.org/2026-geothermal-rising-conference...
