OVER VIEW
Sage Days will be a 5-day intensive workshop to develop and implement
algorithms for research in algebraic combinatorics and the representation
theory of finite dimensional algebras. All software developed during
the workshop will be made freely available, together with the source
code, as part of the free and open-source mathematics software system
Sage (http://www.sagemath.org).
Any sufficiently novel algorithms developed during the workshop
will be submitted for publication.
FORMAT
The workshop will consist of mathematical presentations, presentations
on Sage and coding sprints. The mathematical presentations will
include talks introducing the relevant mathematics for the entire
audience and more advanced talks for interested participants. The
Sage presentations will begin with introductory tutorials and progress
to more advanced topics, including software development in Sage.
There will be ample time allotted for design discussions and coding
sprints to implement the developed algorithms.
Who should attend
The nature of the workshop will make it accessible to researchers
at all levels, even those without any experience with Sage. In fact,
one of the aims of the workshop is to recruit the expertise of people
not currently involved in Sage development, as well as undergraduate
students that will be embarking on summer research projects in 2010.
The aim of these projects is to build upon Sage’s strong foundation
of combinatorial algorithms. Some require advanced programming or
mathematical knowledge, while some can be undertaken by young researchers
with little programming experience.
Topics may include:
• Crystals and reflection groups algorithms.
• Combinatorial Hopf algebras.
• Representation-theoretic invariants
• Representations of quivers.
• Cluster algebras.
• Noncommutative Gröbner Bases
