Yasuaki  Honda has ported Maxima (including it's 3d graphing) to Android.
 Maxima is the open source DOE version of the huge and ancient Macsyma
symbolic algebra system, ported to Common Lisp.  Honda used Ageneau's ECL
port to Android.

See http://maxima.sourceforge.net then the link to related projects.
 Sources should be available there, and a Maxima Android binary is
downloadable directly from the Play store.
