Hi, Wecome!
> My name is Luis F. Garcia, I'm a Physics junior undergrad in Tec de > Monterrey, a university in México. I've been browsing the accepted > mentor programs for this year's GSoC and SymPy really caught my > attention. > > First a bit of my background. My completed coursework so far has > included: Classical mechanics, Electromagnetic Theory, Calculus, > Vector Calculus, Mathematical methods for Physics, ODE/PDE, > Computational Physics (a numerical methods class applied to Physics, > we coded almost entirely in Matlab), Linear Algebra, Data Structures. > Some of my current classes are: Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Information > Processing, Electrodynamics. I've grown quite fond of QM and quantum > computing so far and I am excited to see that SymPy has projects for > both areas. On the technical side I have mainly coded in Java, C#, C+ > +, Matlab and I've played around for a bit with Python but nothing too > complicated. The past two summers I've been an intern with Microsoft, > first on the Servers and Tools division and then in a team within the > Office org. > > While working in Microsoft was a great learning experience I want to > get more experience with scientific computing since it's more related > to my field of study. I saw the ideas page already and I'm interested > in the Abstract Dirac Notation, the one of implementing known > analytical solutions of q.systems, and the one of symbolic quantum > computing. I'll be playing around with sympy.physics to see what's > already implemented but could anyone give me some guidance as to what > is implemented, known issues, or anything relevant about the module? > I'll also get a look at the open issues to get a patch in to the > system. I would start with our ideas page: https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2011-Ideas The quantum computing topic has a lot that needs to be done and could easily support multiple students. Also, I am not sure if anyone is proposing to work on the position/momentum stuff. Also, make sure you submit some patches to sympy (as github pull requests) before the app deadline. > Thanks and I'll try to get a draft application in the wiki and the > system before the end of this week.
