This kind of this is pretty common (see, for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blum%E2%80%93Shub%E2%80%93Smal...).

There is, of course, the very rich field of Numerical Analysis which deals with how we actually represent these things in real life, but for a starting point assuming this sort of thing is par for the course.

this is basically what worktrees do, though? except git 'knows' about all the associated branches, so you don't have to deal with pushing/pulling in order to merge xyz branch, etc.
