The current implementation is already extensive, containing a wide range of different models of p-adic arithmetic (capped relative, capped absolute, lazy, extensions, etc.) but many new algorithms need to be developed, especially for arithmetic with polynomials over the p-adics, for p-adic linear algebra, for computing in the lattice of extensions of a p-adic ring, and for computing with completions of a number field.

Number Theory

Other SAGE Days 4 Projects

David Harvey, David Roe, Joel Mohler, Gonzalo Tornaria, Craig Citro, Ifti B.

These sub-projects will be worked on as interest exists. We will decide which of these get done on Tuesday during the strategy session (4:30-5:00).

  • Investigate Claus Fieker's paper for Galois group computation.
  • David Roe: Implement Tate's algorithm over number fields (again, this involves porting Cremona's GPL'd MAGMA code to SAGE). This is mostly done.

  • Number Fields There are numerous issues with number fields in SAGE. The KANT developers have worked very hard for literally a decade to get the design of number fields right, but the design in SAGE (1) completely ignores all the good work done by the KANT group, and just doesn't feel right.

    1. Arithmetic speed -- Joel improved this a lot, but it's unclear what the best plan is. Discussion at SD4 about design would be very worthwhile.
    2. I really do not like how relative extensions are implemented in SAGE. It's terrible. Design discussions + possibly rewrite it all. The main problem is that it works way too much like PARI and isn't structural; it doesn't fit at all with how SAGE is supposed to work, and is utterly confusing from a KANT/MAGAM point of view. It's really bad.

    3. Rings of integers and orders -- Discuss how they might be implemented; required functionality etc.


  • (done) p-adic L-series of elliptic curves : Christian Wuthrich and I will do a lot along these lines the week before. Finishing this off at SAGE Days might be really interesting.

  • Kiran Kedlaya: I would love to have Arithmetic on Jacobians of Hyperelliptic Curves (Cantor's method), ideally SageX'd. I don't know whether this could be ported from MAGMA.

  • David Roe: General elliptic curve height bound code (port Cremona's GPL'd MAGMA code to SAGE.)

  • Bobby Moretti: Weirstrass Normal Form. Implement EllipticCurve_from_cubic() without using MAGMA.
