I am having trouble understanding this question. By the words "mathematical concentrations", could one substitute the term "mathematical subfields"

Yes, thank you, I performed the substitution in the original post.

If so, then I would say the best resource could be more experienced people with similar instrumental goals to one's self.

Which is precisely why I am asking LessWrong.

So, is your goal to build an AGI? If so, you should email "yudkowsky@gmail.com".

No. I guess I failed to consider what you meant by "instrumental goals" and just blurted out the first thing that came into my head. Sorry.
