Clear message

Following a long tradition of similar workshops, the Sage days 100 workshop will take place in Bonn Germany, Mon 22 July 2019 - Sat 27 July 2019. It welcomes anyone who wishes to work with SageMath, from complete beginners to advanced developers. It will consist of tutorials, participant presentations and mostly free time to let participants work on their mathematical programming projects and get helped from more advanced users. The precise schedule of the workshop will be decided at the start of the workshop and adapted according to the participants' needs.

The afternoon of Wednesday 24th will be dedicated to a SageMath presentation at Max-Planck Institut (for students, PhD students, postdocs and professors). If you wish to be involved in this presentation, contact the organizer.

Schedule

The first morning of the workshop, on Monday 22 July 2019, has a special schedule:

• 09:30--10:00 Welcome coffee

• 10:00--10:30 A SageMath and sage days panorama (by V. Delecroix)

• 10:30--12:30 Participant presentations + schedule organization + get started with Sage
• Lunch and afternoon: as all other days

Monday 22 July 2019 afternoon to Friday 26 July 2019 afternoon share a common schedule:

Hacking sessions aim to let people work on their own projects with experts helping/answering. The tutorial sessions will consist of

Remaining tutorial sessions to be organized:

• databases

Sage packages

• admcycles: tautological ring on M_{g,n} (Aaron Pixton, Johannes Schmitt, Jason van Zelm)

  • (Tuesday presentation admcycles_Bonn.pdf)

• snappy: 3-dim hyperbolic manifolds (Marc Culler, Nathan Dunfield, and Matthias Goerner)

  • (presentation by S. Schleimer: snappy_intro.ipynb)

• veerer: train-tracks and veering triangulations (Vincent Delecroix)

• surface_dynamics: translation surfaces (Vincent Delecroix)

• flipper: mapping class group (via flips in triangulation) (Mark Bell)

• curver: mapping class group (via curve complex) (Mark Bell)

• sage-train-track: free group automorphisms (Thierry Coulbois)

We will have 20 min presentations of each package emphasizing:

• What the package is useful for?
• What should I do if I want to use the package? ie, installation and first steps tutorials
• What is currently under active development?
• Wishlist features / possible research experimentations (with the hope that more people get involved)
