Title: SymPy: Implementation of basic Parametrization module, Symmetry search and handle module.

Student: Yuri Karadzhov

Abstract: As for professional mathematician and physicist computer algebra system (CAS) mostly is the tool of handling simple yet technically large problems. Sure, it can solve some problems completely from the start to the end, but the main purpose we use CAS is to simplify our daily routine. So the goal of my project is improvement of base of Sympy which significantly reduce amount of repeated and cumbersome operations and give the basement for other more complex and specific tools. As for me this tools are – parametrization (which helps to solve ODE's and PDE's depending on arbitrary parameters) and concerned problem of searching and handling symmetries of single ODE or PDE or system of ones.

Education

Current:

  • PhD student in Applied math department of the Kiev Institute of Mathematics, National
Academy of Science, Ukraine.

Former:

  • MS of Mathematical Physics and Computer Sciences in Mechanic-Mathematical faculty of the Kiev National Tars Shevchenko University (honours degree).
  • BA of Mathematical Physics and Computer Sciences in Mechanic-Mathematical faculty of the Kiev National Tars Shevchenko University (honours degree).

Current research and background

Background which might be helpful: Computation Theory, Algebra, Mathematical and Functional Analyses , Theoretical Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Integral Transformations, Special Functions, Differential Equations, Mathematical Physics, Supersymmetries and Symmetries Analyses.

Currently in applied math department I study the theory of Lie groups and it's application to the differential equations. The most recent works however concerned with supersymmetry of Schrödinger-Pauli equation of arbitrary dimension. The obtained results widely extend the number of exactly solvable Quantum Mechanic problems as well as generalize the approach of finding such problems.

Technical background & Programming experience

I've bin using GNU Linux since 2001. It is my only operation system for the last five years. I worked with Mandrake, Red Hat, Gentoo, Debian. Now I use Kubuntu as it is simple to configure and up to date. I used to work as system administrator so I familiar with sh.

Programmer experience:

  • Professional:
    • Java EE, JDBC, JavaScript (ExtJs) – Summer work in Global Logic (2010)
    • Java SE – Institute project: Partial TeX translator for SIGMA journal (2009)
    • APL – Simcorp LLC (2008-2009)
  • Academic:
    • C/C++, Python – writing labs in University
    • Scala – experimenting with Processing
I have experience with SVN, Hg.

IDE: Eclipse, Netbeans, IDLE

Mathematical Software

I have good knowledge of

  • Maple
  • Mathematica
tried to use
  • Sage and Maxima
I completed the desired functionality as Maple Library and now porting it to Mathematica.

Project Motivations & Expectations

The main purpose I applied to this project is to investigate in base of the sympy, which gives the ability to improve more complex functionality which I need in my research. I expect to continue my work on sympy after the end of the project, especially on differential and Lie modules, they are in great interest of me. Because after my work on SSQM will be finished I will recalculate and correct Amaldi classification which incomplete version is used in Maple to solve systems of ODE's and PDE's.

Project Goal

Parametrizator

The project itself includes many steps, but the main goal is to implement parameter checking functionality (the idea is original and has no realizations in any other CAS).

e.g. Bernoulli differential equation <math> f'(x)=af^2(x)+b </math>
