Computation of Tanaka-Weisfeiler superprolongations using Maple

This is a workshop where we discuss the Maple package on Lie superalgebras: essentially how to set up a Lie superalgebra, assign gradings and parity, check Jacobi superidentity, and compute Tanaka-Weisfeiler superprolongations. We will discuss what the commands can and cannot do, how to use them in practical examples, how to improve them, and how to expand the package.

Bonus: I have also written a minimal LaTeX package for drawing Dynkin diagrams, with the advantage that it can be used for non-white backgrounds (without having white gaps in arrows with multiplicity), useful for presentations or posters.
