programming/coding and polynomials

$begingroup$


I would like to know your opinion about which is the best code
to work with mathematical operations/structures.



I am doing my thesis on symmetric polynomials and I would like
to include a computational part. Now I am trying to compute
Schur functions, but C is not the best code to do so. What do you
think?



When I talk about programming, I mean to do like a console application where you can ask someone to put an input and things like that.

Do you have access to MAGMA? There seem to be a number of functions related to what you have in mind here at https://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/magma/handbook/text/1762.



Of course, MAGMA comes at a cost, though your institution may have paid the license. SAGE math is free, has a similar amount of functionality, and seems also to have functions of this kind built in: http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/combinat/sage/combinat/sf/schur.html



The best way to run MAGMA is via a Jupyter notebook, while SAGE works best via https://cocalc.com/



Good luck!

    Up to my understanding, there is a deal with Simons foundation which will cover the cost of using MAGMA for all US non-profit, non-governmental scientific research and educational institutions. For those lucky students in US, it is very likely they already have free access to MAGMA.

Ellipse (mathématiques)

Image
Pour les articles homonymes, voir Ellipse. L'ellipse est le lieu des points dont la somme des distances à deux points fixes, dits foyers, est constante. Section du cône ou projection du cercle. En géométrie, une ellipse est une courbe plane fermée obtenue par l’intersection d’un cône de révolution avec un plan, à condition que celui-ci coupe l'axe de rotation du cône ou du cylindre : c'est une conique d'excentricité strictement comprise entre 0 et 1. On peut également la définir comme le lieu des points dont la somme des distances à deux points fixes, dits foyers, est constante (sa construction par la méthode du jardinier est très simple). Dans la vie courante, l’ellipse est la forme qu'on perçoit en regardant un cercle en perspective, ou la figure formée par l’ombre d'un disque sur une surface plane. On retrouve aussi, en première approximation [ 1 ] , des ellipses dans les trajectoires des corps célestes (planètes, comètes ou satellites arti...

Quarter-circle Tiles

up vote 0 down vote favorite I have $99$ identical square tiles, each with a quarter-circle drawn on it like this: [asy] size(1.5cm); draw(Arc((2,0),1,90,180),red+1); draw((0,0)--(2,0)--(2,2)--(0,2)--(0,0)); [/asy] When I arrange the tiles in a $9times 11$ rectangular grid, each with a random orientation, what is the expected value of the number of full circles I form?
