Code:

The following files contain the computations performed both in Pari/GP and in SageMath to show that certain space of newforms (level 17, weight 44, and nebentypus of order 8) contains a unique orbit of Hecke eigenforms. In both cases this is done by showing irreducibility of the Hecke polynomial T_2 acting on the space of newforms (the second and fourth files contain the polynomial T_2 as a polynomial over the field of values of the nebentypus). In both cases, the computations were done in an ordinary laptop computer (those in Pari/GP took just a few minutes, and those in SageMath approximately one hour).

This fact is used in several papers, in particular in "Automorphy of GL(2) ⊗ GL(n) in the self-dual case" (joint with S. Arias de Reyna). The first two files correspond to the code and output in Pari/GP, and the other two to those in SageMath:

My PhD Thesis (in case you are interested):

It can be downloaded from William Stein's webpage, clicking here. Its five non-trivial chapters "correspond" to the papers that appear in my list of publications (starting from below) in positions 2,3,4,5 and 9. The main differences are the following. First, computations in the chapter on Siegel modular forms are more detailed in the thesis. Second, some interesting results in the chapter on 3-dimensional Galois representations have dissapeared from the published version: in particular the main theorem (="large image for almost every prime") has a nice "corollary" saying that "the set of primes p such that the trace a_p gives a generator of the field of coefficients has DENSITY 1", and this corollary follows automatically from some technical results proved in my thesis that were removed from the published version to save space. In short, if we focus on the results (and not on the presentation) the thesis is better than the published papers, but it is longer, thus it will take you more time!
