Atlas of Lie Groups and Representations
Installing the software (Overview)

These pages are under construction, June 2012

Overview

There are two primary components of the software. The core software is the atlas executable, which has a simple command line interface. realex is a complete programming environment for the software, with variable, loops, conditionals and other standard programming tools. Some functionality is only available in realex.

Both atlas and realex are written in C++, and require a C++ compiler.

This page assumes you have downloaded the software (from a tgz file, or using git), and are in the working directory, which will be (unless you renamed it): atlas_* or atlasofliegroups.

Instructions for compiling atlas and realex under:

linux
Mac
Windows

Also see the INSTALL file of the distribution.
