These lectures give a brief introduction to the Computer Algebra systems Reduce and Maple. The aim is to provide a systematic survey of most important commands and concepts. In particular, this includes a discussion of simplification…
This is a collection of notes based on lectures given at IIT Madras in September 2019 and at IFT Madrid in November 2019. It is supposed to be a concise (and therefore not comprehensive) and pragmatic course on applied holography and…
These lecture notes are based on an introductory course given by the author at the summer school "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" at MSRI in June 2012. The emphasis throughout is on examples to illustrate the many different facets of…
The cover of the SIAM Journal on Applied Algebra and Geometry shows seven pictures. We describe these pictures and discuss the topics they represent. About the Author: Anna Seigal is a graduate student at UC Berkeley working in applied…
This volume contains a final and revised selection of papers presented at the Eighth Workshop on Intersection Types and Related Systems (ITRS 2016), held on June 26, 2016 in Porto, in affiliation with FSCD 2016.
A map is an abstract visual representation of a region, taken from a given space, usually designed for final human consumption. Traditional cartography focuses on the mapping of Euclidean spaces by using some distance metric. In this paper…
This work is an introduction to the local geometric theory of Veronese webs developed in the last twenty years. Among the different possible approach, here one has chosen the point of view of differential forms. Moreover, in order to make…
In the past few years, substantial progress has been made in the understanding of the algebra of kappa classes on the moduli spaces of curves. My goal here is to provide a short introduction to the new results. Along the way, I will discuss…
With a large number of software tools dedicated to the visualisation and/or demonstration of properties of geometric constructions and also with the emerging of repositories of geometric constructions, there is a strong need of linking…
Knowledge about programming is part of the knowledge matrix that will be required of the professionals of the future. Based on this, this work aims to report the development of a teaching tool developed during the monitoring program of the…
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Physics and Computation (PC 2016). The workshop was held on the 14th of July 2016 in Manchester, UK, as a satellite workshop to UCNC 2016, the 15th International…
We discuss a new geometric construction of port-Hamiltonian systems. Using this framework, we revisit the notion of interconnection providing it with an intrinsic description. Special emphasis on theoretical and applied examples is given…
This workshop about triangulations of manifolds in computational geometry and topology was held at the 2014 CG-Week in Kyoto, Japan. It focussed on computational and combinatorial questions regarding triangulations, with the goal of…
These notes are intended to be an introduction to shifted symplectic geometry, targeted to Poisson geometers with a serious background in homological algebra. They are extracted from a mini-course given by the first author at the Poisson…
This volume contains the papers presented at the Tenth International Workshop on Developments in Computational Models (DCM) held in Vienna, Austria on 13th July 2014, as part of the Vienna Summer of Logic. Several new models of computation…
This volume contains the accepted papers at the third Workshop on Membrane Computing and Biologically Inspired Process Calculi, held in Bologna on 5th September 2009. The papers are devoted to both membrane computing and biologically…
Those notes rest on the Samuel Eilenberg Lectures I gave at Columbia University, NY, in the fall 2022. I thank all the mathematicians who participated in their elaboration, directly or indirectly. They are meant to be published as a…
These notes grew out of several introductory talks I gave during the years 2003--2005 on motivic integration. They give a short but thorough introduction to the flavor of motivic integration which nowadays goes by the name of geometric…
This is a slightly edited version of the transparencies for a seminar at UCL, May 7, 2003. It is intended to give a quick view of background, ideas, and some calculations, in the applicatioon of some non commutative methods to algebraic…
This paper is an extended version of four lectures at PIMS in Vancouver given June 27 - 30, 2016. The primary goal of these lectures was to publicize the author's recent efforts to extend to representations of linear algebraic groups the…
