Lie Methods and Related Combinatorics (tutorial)

[dwbump]

This patch adds a tutorial about Lie Methods and Related Combinatorics to Sage.

A copy of the html documentation built with dvipng may be found at:

http://match.stanford.edu/bump/thematic_tutorials/lie.html

or built with jsmath:

http://match.stanford.edu/bump/thematic_tutorials-js/lie.html

Note: only the second js version is up to date. I will update the other one later.

Apply:

1. attachment: trac_8442-rebased-4.6.1.patch
2. attachment: trac_8442-png-files.patch
3. attachment: trac_8442-ref-spacing.patch
4. attachment: 8442_manifest.patch

Then build the doc with

sage -docbuild thematic_tutorials html

add the -j flag to use jsmath.

See also #8470.

This patch adds a tutorial about Lie Methods and Related Combinatorics to Sage.

Apply the patch and also copy the file wcf1.png into $SAGE_ROOT/devel/sage-queue/doc/en/lie/. Then you can build the documentation with the commands:

sage -docbuild lie html

sage -docbuild lie pdf

There is supposed to be a chapter on Crystals but that is not written yet.

I have rebased Dan's patch; see the result at trac_8442-lie-rebased.patch. I have also attached a reviewer patch that makes substantial clean-ups in terms of style and consistency. Changes include:

1. Remove the use of ":math:". That is not necessary, as the Sage docbuilder can handle typeset mathematics without that syntax. Also, the resulting text is easier to read without heaps of ":math:" scattered throughout a ReST document.
2. Some stylistic clean-ups.
3. Make the formatting consistent.
4. Using the syntax ".. MATH::" to center math expressions.

Both Dan's rebased patch and my reviewer patch need reviewing. This ticket now depends on #8468.

Replying to @dwbump:

Setting milestone to sage-feature because of #8470.

At some point Minh Nguyen added the words "needs to be coordinated with #8470" to the description. However #8470 has not been touched for 8 months. It appears to me that #8470 is an orphaned ticket.

I propose that the milestone for this patch should be changed back to 4.6.2.

I second this. #8470 is a meta-ticket meant for coordinating documentation. Closing the current ticket is a prereq to closing it. So, please close the current ticket, which in no ways depends on #8470.

just tested, it works. I also edited the description to mention this patch too.
