Sage and cluster algebra workshop
The Sage and cluster algebra workshop will be held at the University of Hannover, Germany, February 8-10 2012.
If you want to add anything to this page (including your name in the participants list), use the temporary login ClustersDaysHannover and clustershannover2012.
Requirements
- Everyone attending should have a laptop with
- a Linux or Mac OS System (running one of OS X 10.4, 10.5, or 10.6).
- For those running Windows on their machines (if you do not understand what these things mean, Julian can explain the implications of these to you):
- you install Linux on your System
- or you try to get sage-combinat to work inside a "virtual machine"
or use the Sage-Combinat server at http://sage.lacim.uqam.ca. As this server is not completely reliable, this will not be the preferred way.
It would also be appreciated if everyone tries to install Sage and the optional Sage-Combinat package before the course starts. For instructions see http://wiki.sagemath.org/combinat/Installation. We will meet on Tuesday afternoon at 15:00 in the Leibniz Lab (IAZD's coffee room) to get sage installed on all the machines in some way.
- Basic (or even a little more advanced) programming skills are not required but will be very helpful.
Further reading
The Sage documentation http://sagemath.org/help.html#SageStandardDoc.
Many thematic tutorials on Sage can be found at http://combinat.sagemath.org/doc/thematic_tutorials/index.html.
The compendium for the cluster algebra and quiver package http://arxiv.org/abs/1102.4844.
- For further references to background on cluster algebras and quivers see the references in the compendium.
Interesting lectures can be found at http://www.msri.org/web/msri/scientific/workshops/show/-/event/Wm550.
A tentative schedule
All sessions will be in the IAZD Seminar Room (a410).
Wednesday Feb 8
On Wednesday, we will mainly go through several thematic tutorials that can be found at http://combinat.sagemath.org/doc/thematic_tutorials/index.html, plus a presentation on the history and current situation of Sage and Sage-Combinat.

space for discussions like interesting topics, open problems, ...
Let me open with something not implemented but we have been asked to do:
- implementation of quantum cluster algebras
