ganboldone day I want to be able to read and understand this kind of paper without looking up to any reference
Layar Laut@ganbold is this linear algebra?
@layarlaut forgor the exact title, but its produced by algebra research group if I wasnt mistaken
@ganbold ugh, now I need to know the full paper
@layarlaut yes I am quite surprised as well that there are a lot of unis in Indonesia doing coding theory (I dont understand what is it). the one I am currently studying is number theory β
β
β@ganbold what is itCode here is a string of number usually binary digit, though they generalized it to vector of finite Field
It concerns around how to create a code that will be transfered over a signal with potential error (error correcting code) and compression
\mathbb{F}^n_qIt concerns around how to create a code that will be transfered over a signal with potential error (error correcting code) and compression
@layarlaut I think somewhere around applied math or electro engineering would fill your curiousity.
usually at pure math they also had a PoC thingy to prove their paper, other than the formula and the math proof itself. but it might be very simplified and simulated

@ganbold I actually like pure math. Got interested into category theory thanks to Haskell, which intersect a lot with topology and abstract algebra. Haskell peeps also love talking about algebra. That's how I'm familiar with most Math structure like Groups, Rings and Fields
I occasionally peek into Homotopy Type Theory which is the current hot topic around category theory and formalization of proofs. It also intersect with Programming Language Theory, which again Haskell peeps love to talk about
I also love abstraction in math. Like in this case even though technically the only real life examples of codes are string of binary, the operation around code can be abstracted away to operation on field. So rather than working with binary string directly might as well work with vector of finite fields and derive formula from there

@layarlaut wait, hold up, a minute.
let me be blunt, would you mind to be the fedi math club president? because we need guidance and I have no idea on the things you mentioned previously (I am sorry!)

@ganbold I don't know wether I'm up to the responsibility being a president. I don't even know what a math club supposed to do. I also don't have a formal background in mathematics, so I'm not the best person to do the job π
Though, I'd be happy to have a space to share about math related stuff

@layarlaut understandable β

I've seen people across fedi were toying around the math, including myself. so I was thinking, why arent we forming a math club!? but similar to you, I have no formal education in math, and also my experience in math is very lacking. I would end up being a president who know nothing about its club β
β
thus I've been postponing the club, at least either I found the president candidate, or me being comfortable in the topic so I can be a president without worry β
β
but sure, you are always welcomed!
basically, the idea is, feel free to throw anything into the club. you found interesting paper? throw it! lets discuss! you found interesting talk? throw it! you found interesting lecture or textbook? throw it!
I want it to be the first place in people mind wherever they think about math. either sharing stuff or looking up stuff. so everyone else who lurk can learn from those who active as well.
because somehow I feel math is underapreciated. most people always look up into its implementation or end products, like machine learning for example. but rarely the things behind it are being discussed.

@layarlaut @ganbold count ne interested!
@layarlaut have you followed bermatematika dot com on youtube? if you have heard the name of Aleams Barra, he is the lecturer at Math Department on ITB
I see that he is teaching the fundamental concept of coding theory through his youtube channel (I am surprised as well)

@ganbold No, I've never heard of it. I might check it later

βthe irony is Iβm a math teacher right now, even though my math skills are just basic high school level hahaha
I love physics, every equation there has a real world meaning
Meanwhile, math feels much more abstract to me
When I studied math in college, I realized that I probably wouldnβt be good at it

@LLENN08 I just saw a reply or some statement, basically, they agreed that math is fun when we learn math out of school. because we have no limitation to try on understand it. while at school or uni, we have less than 6 months to understand the whole giant topic of it under exam.
so I hope one day we could find the joy of it β

physics is one of my enemy β

I like code because I dont have to be very abstract about a concept, I just create a simulation and run it. those CPU and RAM are my brain β
