Constructive Representation Theory and its Applications

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The algorithms developed will make it possible to determine the different ways (representations) in which a group of symmetries may be  realised as transformations of some space. Such knowledge is required in many areas including differential equations, digital signal processing, engineering ('strut-and-cable' constructions), the design of telephone networks, crystallography and quantum information processing. The high-performance tools for linear algebra developed will also find application in cryptography and coding theory. This work represents the latest stage in a long-term project to discover practical algorithms for elucidating the properties of complex algebraic structures - an area where Australia is a world-leader.
