Dear Sage developers, please allow me to draw your attention to a workshop on "Computations in Groups and Algebras" that I am co-organising. It is Sage-related in the sense that several topics are available in Sage (groups via GAP, group cohomology by optional packages, commutative algebra via Singular, path algebras even made it into the Sage library), or should be implemented in Sage (e.g., fusion systems, blocks of finite groups).
Details are below. Best regards, Simon %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Dear colleagues, This is the first announcement of a forthcoming workshop entitled Computations in Groups and Algebras (CoGrAl2015) =================================== organised by Simon King, Jürgen Müller, and Benjamin Sambale, and taking place at * Friedrich Schiller University Jena (Germany), * from Monday, February 16th, to Thursday, February 19th, 2015. The aim of the workshop is to shed some light on various recent aspects of finite group theory, with a particular view towards algorithms and computations. More specifically, we will focus on the following topics: * Cohomology of finite-dimensional algebras * Structure of p-groups and fusion systems * Block theory of finite groups Invited speakers are: (*) to be confirmed Jon Carlson (Chicago) David Craven(*) (Birmingham) Heiko Dietrich(*) (Melbourne) Bettina Eick (Braunschweig) Graham Ellis (Galway) David Green (Jena) Ellen Henke (Kopenhagen) Frank Himstedt (München) Max Horn (Gießen) Gregor Kemper (München) Viktor Levandovskyy(*) (Aachen) Nadia Mazza (Lancaster) Eamonn O'Brien(*) (Auckland) Götz Pfeiffer (Galway) Peter Symonds (Manchester) For more details please visit the web page * http://cogral2015.uni-jena.de/. We would be very glad if this convinced you to visit Jena and to attend the workshop. We are looking forward to seeing you! With kind regards S.K., J.M., B.S. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
