We introduce Geomstats, an open-source Python package for computations and statistics on nonlinear manifolds that appear in machine learning applications, such as: hyperbolic spaces, spaces of symmetric positive definite matrices, Lie groups of transformations, and many more. We provide object-oriented and extensively unit-tested implementations. Manifolds come equipped with families of Riemannian metrics with associated exponential and logarithmic maps, geodesics, and parallel transport. Statistics and learning algorithms provide methods for estimation, clustering, and dimension reduction on manifolds. All associated operations provide support for different execution backends—namely !NumPy, Autograd, !PyTorch, and !TensorFlow. This talk presents the package, compares it with related libraries, and provides relevant examples. We show that Geomstats provides reliable building blocks to both foster research in differential geometry and statistics and democratize the use of (Riemannian) geometry in statistics and machine learning.

Sage Days are gatherings of people interested in SageMath, from newcomers to contributors. Sage Days have been organized as local, regional, or international in-person meetings by a wide range of people around the globe. Because of the ongoing global health crisis, Sage Days 112.358 (why this number?) will be a fully virtual event following the model of Sage Days 109 and Sage Days 110

Hao Chen: Why I turned to Mathematica (sorry) to plot minimal surfaces. I will introduce the general procedure to plot minimal surfaces from Weierstrass data. For this purpose, I will present two examples from recent works: One is a deformation of the Gyroid, the other is related to vortices in 2D fluids. As a former Sage user, I had to turn to Mathematica for this task because of the heavy use of special functions and numeric integrals. In the future, I would like to see an open-source implementation of the procedure with a performance comparable to Mathematica.
Session 5: SageMath Developer Community and Google Summer of Code
Thursday June 2, 14:45–18:00 UTC. Session chair: Yuan Zhou
Canceled: Tobias Diez: New developer tools for Sage. I give an overview and demonstration of some recently introduced developer tools: Github Action Workflows complementing the existing Sagebot test infrastructure, and Gitpod serving as a (remote) developer environment for ticket reviews and as a main development infrastructure.
Award Ceremony: Annual Spies SageMath Development Prize
- The prize committee: William Stein, Eric Gourgoulhon, John Cremona, Karl-Dieter Crisman, Samuel Lelièvre
Onboarding session for new SageMath developers
Reports from GSoC 2021 projects
Linden Disney-Hogg: Rigorous integration and the Abel--Jacobi map. The Abel–Jacobi map is an important construction in algebraic geometry, including its application to the theory of integrable systems. I will give an overview of a recent implementation of the map in Sage, including some work on improving the integration required, highlighting current uses and future extensions.
David Ayotte: Implementation of the Graded Ring of Quasimodular Forms. The goal of this talk is to explain how quasimodular forms were implemented into SageMath. We will first give a brief review of the theory of (quasi)modular forms and we will explain how the implementation works. Next a quick demo will be showcased. Lastly, further developments to the code will be discussed. )
Trevor Karn: G-invariants of the Orlik–Solomon and Orlik–Terao algebras In this talk I will give examples and a description of how we implemented G-invariants of a finite group G in Sage. Specific examples will include the Orlik-Solomon algebra of a matroid which was the motivating example for the project.
Session 6: Symbolic System Symposium
Thursday June 2, 18:00–23:59 UTC. Session chair: Matthias Köppe
Yuan Zhou: Solid angles of polyhedral cones via decompositions and power series. We study the solid angle measure of a polyhedral cone. This is well understood in dimensions two and three. For higher dimensions, the measure can be computed via a multivariable hypergeometric series, as long as certain positive-definiteness condition is satisfied. We present two decomposition methods of full-dimensional simplicial cones into finite families of cones satisfying the positive-definite criterion. We present the SageMath implementation of the proposed solid angle computations. This is a joint work with Allison Fitisone.
Fredrik Johansson: FLINT: Fast Library for Number Theory. FLINT is a C library used in Sage and several other projects to provide fast arithmetic in various rings as well as efficient implementations of number theoretic functions. This talk will give an overview of FLINT and some descendants projects (Antic, Arb, Calcium), present recent work, and discuss ongoing and future development.
Aaron Meurer, Oscar Benjamin: SymPy. This talk will go over the SymPy library, some of the recent developments, and plans for the future.
Gereon Kremer: Satisfiability Modulo Theories for Arithmetic Problems. Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) solving has grown to be a very successful solving paradigm, powering software and hardware verification, symbolic execution, test-case generation, synthesis, planning, scheduling and optimization tasks. One of the theories in SMT solving is nonlinear real arithmetic which opens immediate connections to the computer algebra community that has long known this theory as the theory of the reals. This talk presents approaches for this theory that are used in the SMT community and discusses some existing and possible future collaboration between the SMT and computer algebra communities.
Discussion: Landscape of symbolic equation solver interfaces, symbolic assumption facilities
Session 7: Sage Teaching Forum
Friday June 3, 11:00–11:59 UTC. Session chair: Jean-Philippe Labbé
Ingo Dahn: Teaching with SageMath—a German Higher Education Perspective. SageMath—and similar systems—are currently used for teaching at German universities just by a few pioneers. The talk explains the particular reasons for this situation and analyzes, which properties of the SageMath ecosystem, with SageMath, SageCell, CoCalc and Docker-CoCalc, facilitate a further uptake. The Virtual Campus of the German Land Rhineland-Palatine (VCRP) is determined to support the use of the potential of digital media for the improvement of teaching and learning at the public universities of the land. In particular, some SageMath-based services are provided to support the work of the aforementioned pioneers, to learn from their experiences and to lower the barriers for other staff members for realizing SageMath’s potential for innovative STEM teaching. These services, some of which are available as Open Educational Resources, will be described in the talk. Finally, some improvements for SageMath are suggested that would further ease its use for teaching. Contact: [email protected]
