Hello everyone, I've posted to the list a few times, but William asked me to post a short introduction. My name is Nick Alexander; I'm a graduate student at University of California, Irvine. Before UCI I was at University of Waterloo, and before that, Queen's University (both in Canada). My web presence is at math.uci.edu/~ncalexan but at present it is minimal.
I'm interested in combinatorics, cryptography, and number theory. I use sage for computing Uppuluri-Carpenter numbers (related to Bell numbers) and, potentially, will use it for doing cryptography on abelian varieties. As a developer, I'm interested in adding support for multivariate power series and, perhaps _very_ rudimentary support for non-commutative power series. (I speak python and several other languages so I'm not worried about learning the basics.) I'm also interested in cryptographic algorithms, mostly point-counting on curves, and combinatorial algorithms, such as computing Bell and Stirling numbers. I'd prefer username "ncalexan" on sage.math.
