  • Fake_Degree_Sequence.nb, a Mathematica notebook for computing a linear q-difference equation satisfied by the fake degree sequence associated to a given representation and a given simple complex Lie algebra by the method of creative telescoping and the closure properties of the class of q-holonomic sequences. It is based on joint work with Bruce W. Westbury. The notebook requires the availability of Koutschan's package HolonomicFunctions.m.
  • Mihailovs_Conjecture.nb, a Mathematica notebook for proving Mihailovs' conjecure by the method of creative telescoping. It is based on joint work with Alin Bostan, Jordan Tirrell, and Bruce W. Westbury. The notebook requires the availability of Koutschan's package HolonomicFunctions.m.
  • TestNonvanishing.nb, a Mathematica notebook for checking the nonvanishing property of algebraic ordinary differential equations in Kamke's collection. It is based on joint work with Sebastian Falkensteiner and Thieu N. Vo. The notebook requires the availability of the Mathematica package Kamke_ODE.m.
  • zof.m, a Mathematica package for generating 0-1-fillings of a Ferrers board (shape), checking the number of sigma-avoiding 0-1-fillings of a Ferrers board, generating generalized 0-1-fillings of a Ferrers board, and checking the number of generalized 0-1-fillings of a Ferrers board with weight n such that the longest ne-chain has length u and the longest se-chain has length v.
