Hello Community, Hello All,
I am Tushant Jha, and undergraduate student and, at the moment, a GSoC aspirant, and write this mail to get engaged with what is being done at SAGE. I have done a research project on the Arithmetic of Elliptic Curves and am exploring the theory of modular forms these days. I have used Sage (esp Sagecloud service) and Pari/gp extensively for various number-theoretic applications. I am comfortable with programming in Python, and can work with C/C++ as well. I plan on doing GSoC this year so as to get an opportunity to learn the intricacies of programming novel additions to already enormous codebases, and in the process gain an experience at how huge systems are engineered. Going through the list of ideas by Sage, I was really attracted to the project about q-expansions of Modular Forms attached to elliptic curves. Althout I am not entirely familiar with the "well-known and easy to implement algorithm" mentioned in the project description ( http://wiki.sagemath.org/GSoC/2015#Computation_of_q-expansions_of_modular_forms_attached_to_elliptic_curves_at_all_cusps. ), I am still really eager to work on this project idea. Would it be possible for someone, perhaps Prof Stein, to please provide some more explaination of the new ideas he has mentioned in the project description, so that I could possibly work with him and his graduate student on any required prerequisite work for the project? Another idea that caught my attention was the Game theory project, having worked on gambit in the past. What would ideally be scope of this project? Would it be possible for someone on this group to please let me know the opportunities available and the scope in these projects? And what would ideally constitute prerequiste work in these projects for proposal? With thanks, Sincerely, Tushant Jha Hyderabad -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-gsoc" group.
