Dear all, There are several libraries in haskell for abstract algebra but they don't seem to cover my use case I was wondering if other people have had similar issues and if there are any packages I am missing. What I am prinicpaly interested in is operation on algebraic stuctures (homomorphisms, kernels, quotients, colimits, etc) whereas most algebra packages seem to just give operations on the elements of an algebraic structure. So I would like to be able to write something like... g = freeGroup(["x","y"]) h = freeGroup(["z"]) phi = grpMorphismOnGens([("x","z"^6) , ("y","z")]) k = grpKernel phi (gens,rels) = grpPresentation (grpQuotient g k) Thank you, Robert Goss
