Equivariant Degree Maple^© Library Package

The Equivariant Degree Maple^© Library was created by A. Biglands under the supervision of W. Krawcewicz at the University of Alberta (NSERC summer research grant, 2006) in order to support the computations of the primary equivariant degree. Construction of the equivariant degree and its fundamental propertries were explained in the monograph:

Applied Equivariant Degree Z. Balanov, W. Krawcewicz and H. Steinlein, Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems, Vol. 1, 2006, AIMS, p552.

Installation of Maple^© Library

1. Click at Maple^© Library to download the zipped package.
2. Extract all content to a folder under your Maple^© directory, say at "C:\Programms\Maple\MapleLibrary"
3. Start Maple^© and run
   > restart;
   > libname := libname, "C:\\Programms\\Maple\\MapleLibrary\\tmp\\EquivariantDegree\\EquivariantDegreelib.mla";
   (Attention: "\\" symbols in the path!)
4. Now you are ready to call a command from the Equivariant Degree Maple^© Library such as
   > showdegree[D12](0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)
   which gives a degree for the dihedral group D₁₂ of symmetry.
5. Instructions on how to use the library can be found under the folder "HELP-Files"
