Sage Days 38

Sage is a mathematics software package, developed by and for the mathematics community. It aims to become a viable alternative to commercial software packages on the basis of an open-source model.

Theme

This workshop will be a 5-day intensive workshop to serve both as introduction to Sage and as an open developers meeting. The event will include a combination of mathematical talks, tutorials, demonstrations of Sage functionality as well as time spent on Sage development. The principal focus of the developers meeting is algebraic combinatorics and the representation theory of algebras.
