Just to narrow things down a bit, is it fair to say that the topics his students will probably focus on would be algebraic geometry and/or algebraic number theory (not calculus or differential equations or something like that)? I think we are still lacking a good implementation of an algorithm computing Riemann-Roch spaces. I'm not sure if that is too far afield or not though... > > Martin > > PS: Stefan, I hope I represented your idea correctly. > -- > name: Martin Albrecht > _pgp: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x8EF0DC99 > _www: http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~malb > _jab: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
