Computational homological Algebra

Objective

We propose to use the functional language Haskell to write an extensible software package for computational homological algebra accessible to all researchers in the area. The software would combine routines specifically written for this purpose with interfaced code from established existing systems and libraries such as GAP (group theory), CoCoA (commutative algebra), Bergman (non-commutative algebra), LinBox (exact linear algebra). A programmable user-friendly interface would be constructed in the form of a domain specific language.

In order for this to happen, a substantial transfer of knowledge of functional programming, computer algebra and general computer science to a group of mathematicians with a great interest but only superficial knowledge would have to take place. This transfer would come about through postdoctoral researchers working with the research group in Galway.
