=== Schedule ===

The workshop will begin Sunday morning at 10am and end Thursday morning (the last officially scheduled activity ends at 11am). See [[/Schedule|the schedule]] for more details.

=== Projects ===

See [[/Projects|the projects page]] for our objectives for the workshop.


=== Location ===

Workshop activities will be in the APM (Applied Physics and Mathematics) building, labeled 249 on this [[http://maps.ucsd.edu/mapping/viewer/default.htm|campus map]]. For Google Maps directions, use the destination "Muir College Drive".

The main elevators are out of order, so follow the signs for the freight elevator (or take the stairs if you prefer). For the entirety of the workshop, we have reserved one large classroom (APM 6402) and one smaller classroom (APM 6218); during talks in one room, the other room will be available for undisturbed coding.

Some refreshments will be available in the math department common room (APM 7356). Coffee, teabags (use the hot pot for hot water), and snacks will be visible; coffee addons (milk, cream, soy milk) and orange juice will be in the fridge. Please do not bring food or drink into APM 6402 or APM 6218.

The UCSD-GUEST wireless network is available throughout campus; you will have to register once per day. You can also use the eduroam network if your home campus supports this.

For those staying longer: there will be a colloquium talk by Fernando Rodriguez Villegas Thursday at 4 PM. On Sunday, February 26, there will be a one-day number theory conference (Southern California Number Theory Day).

=== Projects ===

Watch this space for more about proposed projects for this Sage Days.

=== Venue ===

Workshop activities will be in the math department, mostly in room APM 6402. We also have APM 6418 for use as a breakout room. Use this [[http://maps.ucsd.edu/mapping/viewer/default.htm|campus map]] to get oriented; look for building APM (Applied Physics and Mathematics), labeled 249 on the map.

The UCSD-GUEST wireless network is available throughout campus; registration is open but must be repeated once per day. You can also use the eduroam network if your home campus supports this.

If you're receiving funding from us, please purchase your tickets as soon as possible and e-mail the receipt to David. If you'd like to fly on a non-US carrier, please check with us first (or just use a code share ticket at the same price). Except for those who made other arrangements, everyone is staying at the [[http://www.delmarinn.com/|Clarion Del Mar Inn]]. To get from San Diego Airport to the hotel, if possible, you should get a ride with someone renting a car. We have a google spreadsheet to coordinate arrivals; if you don't have permission to view it e-mail David or Kiran. Feel free to call Kiran from the airport for assistance. (Note that there are three terminals at SAN: the Commuter Terminal for all flights from LAX; Terminal 1 for United, Alaska, and Southwest; and Terminal 2 for other carriers. All rental cars are offsite, reached by shuttles.) Backup options (no prebooking required) include !SuperShuttle (shared vans) or taxis (cheaper than !SuperShuttle for 3 or 4 people).
Line 117: Line 49:
We have a group rate at the [[http://www.delmarinn.com/|Clarion Del Mar Inn]]. By default, everyone will check in on Saturday evening and check out on Thursday, and reservations are already made. If you'd prefer something else (arriving or departing early or late, a room upgrade from the default single with queen bed, extra rooms for family who want to enjoy San Diego...) please contact David at roed [at] math [dot] harvard [dot] edu. We'll be commuting from the hotel to the math department in a fleet of rental cars. A backup option is the 101 bus (the "Breeze"), which has stops close to both the hotel and the math department but is not very fast or frequent (and stops running at 9:30 PM). The fare is \$1.75 each way (exact change required); maps and timetables are [[http://transit.511sd.com/Services/NCTDRoute.aspx?r=101|here]]. If all else fails, call Yellow Taxi at 619-444-4444; a taxi from the hotel to UCSD should run no more than \$30 for up to 4 people.

Parking enforcement at UCSD is quite strict. Avoid problems by parking as follows. (See the campus map for lot locations.)
 * On ''weekends and holidays'' (in this case Sunday and Monday = Presidents Day): you may park for free at any space except those marked as "reserved". The closest lots to APM are P206 and P207.
 * On ''weekdays'': The closest lot offering visitor parking is P208. Buy a permit from the pay station, park in any B (green) space, and leave the permit visible on the dashboard. After 4:30 PM, permits also become valid in the closer lots P206 or P207 (except in spaces marked as "reserved") but are still required.

To get from San Diego Airport to the hotel, your best bet is to rendezvous with someone renting a car; we will email a list of arrival times so you can prepare for this in advance, or you can call Kiran from the airport for assistance. (Note that there are three terminals at SAN: the Commuter Terminal for all flights from LAX; Terminal 1 for United, Alaska, and Southwest; and Terminal 2 for other carriers. All rental cars are offsite; each company runs a shuttle to its rental location.) If all else fails, follow the signs for ground transportation and look for Supershuttle or Cloud 9 (and get a receipt).

From the hotel, there are numerous restaurants within walking distance along Camino del Mar. Of course, there are more options reachable by car. Vending machines can be found in the APM basement and outside APM near the freight elevator.

Sage Days 36: p-adics in Sage

February 19-23, 2012, UC San Diego

This workshop will focus on p-adic numbers and associated structures in Sage. There will be a substantial emphasis on core structures (arithmetic, p-adic fields, extension fields, polynomials and power series, linear algebra) and in particular on fixing bugs in these. Other topics may include: p-adic special functions, p-adic L-functions, p-adic Hodge theory, p-adic cohomology and zeta functions, p-adic modular forms.

Note to participants: if you haven't already, please join the Google group sagedays36 for further announcements.
