Abstract

We share the details of a simple algorithm which groups students based on diversity in gender and race while keeping the group average CGPA nearly equal. Application on simulated and actual class profiles gave multiple‐feasible solutions within seconds, with a maximum absolute deviation in group average CGPA of 0.03/4.00 or lower.

We shall describe an algorithm based on an idea of Roggenkamp and Scott (Roggenkamp and Scott, 1993) ) to compute \(\mathrm{Hom}_{\text {alg }}(\mathbb{F} H, \mathbb{F} G\) ), where \(H, G\) are finite \(p\)-groups and \(\mathbb{F} H, \mathbb{F} G\) are their group algebras over \(\mathbb{F}=\mathbb

We first develop a construction, originally due to Reidemeister, of the fundamental group and covers of a two-dimensional combinatorial cell complex. Then, we describe a practical algorithmic approach to the computation of fundamental groups and first homology groups (as finitely presented groups),
