Research software forms distinct co-usage communities that span traditional disciplinary boundaries, yet the structure of these communities remains largely unexplored. We present a graph-based framework for discovering mathematical software communities and predicting their association with research publications. We construct a software co-usage network from publication-software relationships using a curated swMATH dataset and subsequently apply community detection method, revealing a heterogeneous landscape of mathematical software communities. We formulate publication-to-community mapping as a multi-label classification task and further investigate whether community membership can be predicted from lightweight scholarly metadata. Specifically, we compare two feature representations of scientific publications: Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC) and title-based embeddings. Across a range of models, structured MSC representation consistently provides a stronger precision-recall trade-off, demonstrating that structured domain metadata captures software-community structure more effectively than compressed title-only semantics in this setting. This work highlights the continuing value of structured scholarly metadata for large-scale research software discovery, classification and recommendation.

We present the zbMATH Open Knowledge Graph, a large-scale RDF knowledge graph (KG) covering more than 250 years of mathematical scholarship. Unlike existing scholarly knowledge graphs that primarily capture bibliographic metadata and citation structures, the zbMATH Open KG integrates expert-curated semantic content, including reviews, keywords, subject classifications, software references, and disambiguated authorship. This combination of domain-specific representation of mathematical knowledge and extensive temporal coverage supports analyses that require fine-grained exploration of mathematical concepts, research fields, and scholarly relationships over time. The resulting graph comprises 34 million entities and 168 million RDF triples represented using established Semantic Web vocabularies, supporting interoperability and FAIR data principles. We further demonstrate its capabilities through query-driven historically grounded scholarly exploration use cases, illustrating how the knowledge graph can surface relationships and patterns that may be difficult to identify from bibliographic and citation information alone. The zbMATH Open KG provides an open semantic infrastructure for studying the development of mathematical knowledge and tracing scholarly connections across centuries of scholarship.
