Aims

This summer school aims to teach participants knowledge about computational algebra, both theoretical and practical. The schedule will encompass:

• introductory courses by experts on selected topics of computational algebra by
  • Eamonn O’Brien on algorithmic group theory
  • Clément Pernet on computational linear algebra
• introductory sessions on working with git, Julia, OSCAR
• hand-on training sessions implementing selected algorithms in Julia and OSCAR

The introductory courses require only few prerequisites and will be accompanied by hands-on programming sessions. While the courses deal with particular mathematical problems, the techniques introduced have a wide range of applications, in particular from a practical point of view.
