On Wednesday, we will mainly go through several thematic tutorials that can be found at http://combinat.sagemath.org/doc/thematic_tutorials/index.html, plus a presentation on the history and current situation of Sage and Sage-Combinat.

Sage and cluster algebra workshop

The Sage and cluster algebra workshop will be held at the University of Hannover, Germany, February 8-10 2012.

If you want to add anything to this page (including your name in the participants list), use the temporary login ClustersDaysHannover and clustershannover2012.

Requirements

  • Everyone attending should have a laptop with
    • a Linux or Mac OS System (running one of OS X 10.4, 10.5, or 10.6).
    • For those running Windows on their machines (if you do not understand what these things mean, Julian can explain the implications of these to you):
      • you install Linux on your System
      • or you try to get sage-combinat to work inside a "virtual machine"
      • or use the Sage-Combinat server at http://sage.lacim.uqam.ca. As this server is not completely reliable, this will not be the preferred way.

  • It would also be appreciated if everyone tries to install Sage and the optional Sage-Combinat package before the course starts. For instructions see http://wiki.sagemath.org/combinat/Installation. We will meet on Tuesday afternoon at 15:00 in the Leibniz Lab (IAZD's coffee room) to get sage installed on all the machines in some way.

  • Basic (or even a little more advanced) programming skills are not required but will be very helpful.

A tentative schedule

All sessions will be in the IAZD Seminar Room (a410).
