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 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
SingularandM2respectively. - 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.
