Like for the previous MuPAD-Combinat days of June 2006, I (Nicolas) have rented a 8-person house in Cernay-la-Ville
([[http://www.cernayvacances.com/CFrans.html|la tour]]). Hopefully, this will be paid for by the university of Orsay; otherwise we will split the charges (~600 euros total). We will do the cooking ourselves (bring your favorite recipes!).

Altogether this made for a tight
budget (around 1200 euros total for 5 days and 8 persons).

Sage-Combinat workshop in Orsay

January 26-30 of 2009

Purpose: work on the foundations and get former MuPAD-Combinat developers on board. See below for details.

Sponsored by the Laboratoire de Mathématiques d'Orsay: Faculté d'Orsay

Accomodation

Like for the previous MuPAD-Combinat days of June 2006, I (NicolasThiéry) have rented a 8-person house in Cernay-la-Ville (la tour). We did the cooking ourselves (bring your favorite recipes!). Altogether this made for a tight budget (around 1200 euros total for 5 days and 8 persons).

Coming from downtown Paris

  • From Gare Montparnasse: 35 minutes train to Rambouillet + 15 minutes bus to Cernay-la-Ville

Work done

Altogether, the meeting was really successful, with lots of code written (90 commits), and many many design discussions. Here are some of the points that were worked on:

Words: see the sprint page

Interval Exchange Transformation and Linear Involution (Vincent Delecroix)

  • Patch a first version of code for the combinatoric of interval exchange transformations and their generalizations. It will be a hard task to choose names because standards one are Permutation and GeneralizedPermutation which are confusing ! Perhaps IETPermutation... but not very beautiful.

Documentation

Posets (FrancoSaliola)

  • the posets code in Sage needs to be re-designed to integrate properly with the rest of sage-combinat.
  • design discussions for abstract larger/lazy/infinite posets

Categories (NicolasThiéry)

  • Design and naming convention discussions
  • Put it to intensive use: the NCSF and representation theory projects will be perfect for this

NCSF

  • Mike Zabrocki sent me (Franco) an implementation of noncommutative symmetric functions in Sage. I'll have it with me at the meeting to share and discuss. (It's not on the patch server because he finds the instructions complicated, which brings to the patch server point).

Representation Theory of Finite Dimensional Algebras and monoids

  • Desosseur -- Computing the Cartan invariant and more generally representation theory of finite dimensional algebras (FlorentHivert, FrancoSaliola).

  • a basic class for the quiver of an algebra
  • core work: subspaces and quotients for combinatorial free modules, and corresponding category framework
  • Finish the basic implementation of representation theory of monoids via J-classes
  • DiscreteMonoid implemented via lists instead of matrices

Miscellaneous

  • deal with more of the quirks and weirdness issues.

  • Set Partition (with no s) -- Implement Set Partition as a child of Set Partitions. Use the code from Disjoint Set which is already in the sage-combinat tree. See trac #5039. (Sébastien Labbé).

  • Fix Anne's bug with Partitions(0)
