Description

Following Francis Brown, I will explain why certain questions in number theory, like irrationality of zeta values, make it desirable to be able to compute some mixed Tate motives of moduli spaces. Then I will explain an algorithm devised by Clément Dupont in his Ph.D. thesis for that purpose, and its implementation in the package MotivesForBiarrangements, which uses CAP (Categories, Algorithms, and Programming), a GAP project developed in Siegen.
