I looked and didn't find anything what I was looking for. I'd eventually like to work with affine Hecke algebras. > I spoke with Frank Luebeck while in Germany last month.

Well, it is good to hear that some work is being done in this area. I'd be willing to do the Hecke algebra stuff in SAGE once chevie for GAP4 is released. --Mike --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
