Địa điểm: Hue University of Education, 34 Le Loi St., Hue City, Vietnam.

Objective

The Macaulay2 Winter School aims to foster connections among experts, lecturers, and students engaged in scientific research projects, providing a platform for exchanging knowledge and promoting collaborative research. The Winter School consists of two weeks:

Week 1 - Lecture Series: The first week (Dec 29 - Jan 3) will feature several lectures discussing both the basic functionality of Macaulay2 and how to use it to solve problems in Commutative Algebra, Algebraic Geometry, and other fields.

Week 2 - Practice: During the second week (January 5–9), the focus will be on writing and documenting code as part of Macaulay2 packages. Participants will work in small groups led by experienced members, concentrating on the implementation of individual packages. Throughout the week, we’ll have a series of presentations, starting with experienced participants to set the stage, and ending with junior participants sharing the progress they’ve made.
