Dr. Stein, I posted this somewhere else, but it seems that it failed to deliver.
I would like to express my interest in attending. Do I need to fill out an application of some sort? Since I'm new to the group, I will share a little about me. I'm currently a graduate student at the University of North Carolina - Greensboro. I hope to graduate in December with a PhD in computational mathematics. My research is focused on Dirichlet L-functions and their derivatives. At the moment, I'm working on algorithms to compute derivatives of L-functions and their zeros. I have some code written for Sage. This code created pictures of "chains" of zeros of high derivatives of the Riemann Zeta function. These pictures can be found at http://www.uncg.edu/mat/numbertheory/zeta-left.html. These algorithms are slow and would benefit by calling mpfr and mpc directly. Note that although mpmath can already compute high derivatives of the Riemann zeta function, these algorithms do not call mpmath and computes derivatives to arbitrary precision. Also, I would like to implement the incomplete gamma function for the arbitrary precision complex number class. Although this function is already implemented and can be called using the ComplexNumber class, it seems as though the highest precision I can achieve is double precision. At the moment, sage calls pari to evaluate the incomplete gamma function. It would also be nice to implement the upper and lower incomplete gamma functions. I can also work on bugs related to precision issues.
