Re: 4th "Atelier PARI/GP" (january 2014)

Here are some thoughts on areas to improve pari/gp.

allow implicit multiplication in the gp parser (i.e., accept 3x^2+5x-3)
Galois groups of higher degree polynomials (I see it is already a wish list item in the bug tracker, so this is another vote)
computation of resolvents ala magma (give a polynomial, compute its Galois group, then specify the subgroup, or specify a degree to get resolvents for all subgroups with the given index)

====== WORKSHOP: 4th Atelier PARI/GP in Besancon ==(First announcement)======
=============================================================================

Dear colleagues,

we would like to announce a week-long workshop on the computer algebra system
"PARI/GP", from 6th to 10th January 2014, at Besancon University (France).

Organizers:
Bill Allombert <Bill.Allombert@math.u-bordeaux1.fr>
Karim Belabas <Karim.Belabas@math.u-bordeaux1.fr>
Christophe Delaunay <christophe.delaunay@math.cnrs.fr>

This workshop is organized to discuss the current and future development
of the PARI/GP system. Anyone interested in helping out is welcome !

The workshop will include

(1) Short Status reports on the current development projects.

(2) Tutorial sessions.

(3) Brainstorming sessions, to spell out and discuss ideas about the system
development: new features, new algorithms, improving old implementations,
bug fixes, extensions to GP syntax, documentation overhaul ...

(4) Coding sessions: inspired by (3), but bring also your own problems !

Please share your ideas for Discussion topics (3) or Coding sessions (4)
with the development mailing list <pari-dev@pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr>.
Feel free to suggest subjects for the Tutorial sessions (2).

To register, please contact <christophe.delaunay@math.cnrs.fr>.
Please mention in your email if you need financial help to attend.
