Main goals
This Sage workshop was a satellite of the conference Flat Surfaces and Dynamics of Moduli Space that happened in Oaxaca May 08-13. The aim was to introduce participants to SageMath and share code and knowledge.
On the first day, we also had two participants from the University of Oaxaca.
OpenDreamKit implication
OpenDreamKit, via its Bordeaux node, supported the expenses of participants. Vincent Delecroix made introductory and advanced talks about SageMath and Python.
Event summary
The first day was dedicated to a SageMath introduction. Each day in the afternoon, we had a demonstration from a participant. The rest of the time was dedicated to programming.
Demographic
11 persons took part in these Sage Days: 2 females and 9 males, originating from the following countries: Mexico (3), Canada (3), France (3), USA (2)
Results and impact
- A step toward the convergence of the IPython and SageMath notebooks with https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/20562} (\delivref{UI}{ipython-kernel-sage)
- A fix in SageMath for a problem discovered Maxime Fortier-Bourque during the workshop (https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/20566)
- Charles Fougeron’s code about Lyapunov exponents gets integrated in https://github.com/videlec/sage-flatsurf.
- New visualization tools for geometry of translation surfaces at https://github.com/videlec/flatsurf-package.
- And several experimentations by the other participants.
