'''Follow the instructions here: https://github.com/UW-Madison-ACI/boot-camps/blob/2015-01-13/setup/README.md'''. <br />
<br />
For now you can disregard the sections on '''Shell''' and '''Git''', just focusing on '''Python''' and an '''Editor'''<br />
<br />
A short summary of these instructions:<br />
<br />
1. You'll need to install Python on your machine. We recommend the Anaconda python distribution:<br />
<br />
https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/<br />
<br />
During installation, make Anaconda your default Python installation (unless you have some reason not to do this).<br />
<br />
2. You'll need a text editor to write Python in. Any text editor will work, but an editor that highlights Python keywords is handy, such as [http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/ Text Wrangler] or [http://www.sublimetext.com/ Sublime Text]. <br />
<br />
==First steps==<br />
Once Python is installed, you're ready to get started! Open up a command line prompt (e.g. Command Prompt on Windows, Terminal on OS X) and type<br />
<br />
ipython<br />
<br />
to start an interactive Python shell. You can begin entering Python commands and manipulating variables immediately.<br />
<br />
If you have no prior programming experience, I recommend you work through the Beginner Python tutorials below using ipython: as you read, type the commands into ipython. This will help you get a feel for what's happening.<br />

2. You'll need a text editor to write Python in. Any text editor will work, but there are ones that highlight Python keywords which is handy, such as [http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/ Text Wrangler] or [http://www.sublimetext.com/ Sublime Text]. <br />

==If you've no/minimal programming experience==<br />
Once Python is installed, you're ready to get started! Open up a command line prompt (e.g. Command Prompt on Windows, Terminal on OS X) and type<br />
<br />
ipython<br />
<br />
to start an interactive Python shell. You can begin entering Python commands and manipulating variables immediately.<br />
<br />
If you have no prior programming experience, I recommend you work through a Python tutorial using ipython: as you read, run the commands and get a feel for what's happening.<br />

'''Graduate study at UW-Madison in algebra'''<br />
<br />
Algebra is among the most popular specializations for UW Ph.D. students. Regularly offered courses include a four-semester sequence in number theory; a two-semester sequence in algebraic geometry; homological algebra; representation theory; advanced topics in group theory. We also regularly offer more advanced topics courses, which in recent years have included the Gross-Zagier formula, classification of algebraic surfaces, and p-adic Hodge theory. Here is [http://www.math.wisc.edu/graduate/gcourses_fall a list of this fall's graduate courses].<br />
<br />
The department holds an [http://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward.do?AwardNumber=0838210&version=noscript NSF-RTG grant in number theory and algebraic geometry], which funds several research assistantships for graduate students (U.S. citizens and permanent residents) working in those areas. <br />
<br />
Recent Ph.D. graduates from the group have been very successful on the job market; in the last few years, we have sent alumni to postdoctoral fellowships at Berkeley, Harvard, Imperial (UK), MIT, Princeton, Stanford, University of Cologne(Germany), and UT-Austin, to tenure-track jobs at McGill, Wake Forest, Bucknell, the University of New Mexico, Chennai Mathematical Institute (India), and the University of South Carolina, and to non-academic positions at places such as Credit Suisse and the Center for Communications Research, La Jolla.<br />

|''Functional Graphs of Affine-Linear Transformations over Finite Fields''<br />
|- valign="top"<br />
|A linear transformation <math>A: (\mathbb{F}_q)^n \to (\mathbb{F}_q)^n</math> gives rise to a directed graph by regarding the elements of <math>(\mathbb{F}_q)^n</math> as vertices and drawing an edge from <math>v</math> to <math>w</math> if <math>Av = w</math>. In 1959, Elspas determined the "functional graphs" on <math>q^n</math> vertices that are realized in this way. In doing so he showed that there are many non-similar linear transformations which have isomorphic functional graphs (and so are conjugate by a non-linear permutation of <math>(\mathbb{F}_q)^n</math>). I review some of this work and prove an new upper bound on the number of equivalence classes of affine-linear transformations of <math>(F_q)^n</math> under the equivalence relation of isomorphism of functional graphs. This bound is significantly smaller than the number of conjugacy classes of <math>\operatorname{GL}_n(q)</math>. This is joint work with Eric Bach.<br />
