The Explicit Hypergeometric Modularity Calculator

My dissertation was based on the Explicit Hypergeometric Modularity Method (EHMM), introduced initially by Michael Allen, Brian Grove, Ling Long, and Fang-Ting Tu.  In collaboration with the original authors, we have created the EHMM calculator. The calculator computes the basic hypergeometric information important in the EHMM papers, including the values of finite field hypergeometric series that are not defined over Q, zigzag diagrams, and other useful data. The calculator can also be used to construct the modular forms described in the sequence of papers listed below. We hope that calculator will be useful for research and mentoring for those working on hypergeometric series and other types of formal power series.
