List of software which might be useful for graduate math:

  • Mathematica and Maple are available on the HPC server appsa (accessible from campus network) and thin client servers beyonce and keira (accessible from thin client computer lab 744).
  • MATLAB is available on appsa, beyonce and keira.
  • Octave is a free program that runs most MATLAB code — available on beyonce and keira.
  • Singular and Macaulay 2 are free programs for doing computational commutative algebra. They are available on appsa with the command names Singular and M2 respectively.
  • MAGMA does computations with many algebraic objects. Not free, but available on appsa, beyonce and keira.

The Math department's HPC server appsa may be accessed off-campus via login. See here for instructions on connecting to login from your personal computer.

See also the list of text editors for various operating systems.

MacPorts

MacPorts is a program for Mac OS X which makes it easy to install and update most of the free software packages above and many others as well.
