Macaulay2 Mini-School

July 14-15, NC State, Raleigh, USA.

Organizers: Timothy Duff, Martin Helmer, Anton Leykin, Mike Stillman

Synopsis

Preceding the ISSAC meeting there will be two full days of M2 tutorials on July 14 and 15 (Sunday, Monday), taking place at NC State. These tutorials are intended to appeal to participants with any level of prior M2 experience. The topics will range from the basic functionality of M2 to modeling problems in the M2 language to more specialized tutorials on algebraic statistics and numerical algebraic geometry. We will also reserve ample time for practice and Q&A sessions. 

Registration

Registration fees will be around $30, to be collected at a later time, this is to cover the cost of some coffee breaks etc.  We hope to have some amount of fee waivers, and some funding for local expenses, but details are yet to be determined. Please let us know what funding you would need and if you would be also attending ISSAC using the link below.
