Welcome to Kenzo

According to the title of its handbook, Kenzo is a "Symbolic Software for Effective Homology Computation" and its main audience might be students and researchers in algebraic topology. It is also a remarkable piece of LISP code, albeit in need of a little touch-up.

This is a repackaged version of the Kenzo program by Francis Sergeraert and collaborators. The original version of the program can be found at http://www-fourier.ujf-grenoble.fr/~sergerar/Kenzo/ . This version aims to update its infrastructure by providing the following:

  1. Installation via the Quicklisp library manager
  2. A simple regression test suite based on FiveAM
  3. Support for SBCL

!!! WARNING !!!

This is work in progress. The entire code now compiles fine w/ SBCL, but that's just the first step. There are plenty of examples in publications and scattered throughout the source. Many work (most?), some don't. Let's get to work! ...
