bdd_height
(K, height_bound, precision=53, LLL=False)¶ Computes all elements in the number number field \(K\) which have relative multiplicative height at most
height_bound
.The algorithm requires arithmetic with floating point numbers;
precision
gives the user the option to set the precision for such computations.It might be helpful to work with an LLL-reduced system of fundamental units, so the user has the option to perform an LLL reduction for the fundamental units by setting
LLL
to True.Certain computations may be faster assuming GRH, which may be done globally by using the number_field(True/False) switch.
The function will only be called for number fields \(K\) with positive unit rank. An error will occur if \(K\) is \(QQ\) or an imaginary quadratic field.
ALGORITHM:
This is an implementation of the main algorithm (Algorithm 3) in [Doyle-Krumm].
INPUT:
height_bound
- real numberprecision
- (default: 53) positive integerLLL
- (default: False) boolean value
OUTPUT:
- an iterator of number field elements
Warning
In the current implementation, the output of the algorithm cannot be guaranteed to be correct due to the necessity of floating point computations. In some cases, the default 53-bit precision is considerably lower than would be required for the algorithm to generate correct output.
Todo
Should implement a version of the algorithm that guarantees correct output. See Algorithm 4 in [Doyle-Krumm] for details of an implementation that takes precision issues into account.
EXAMPLES:
There are no elements of negative height:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^5 - x + 7) sage: list(bdd_height(K,-3)) []
The only nonzero elements of height 1 are the roots of unity:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height sage: K.<g> = QuadraticField(3) sage: list(bdd_height(K,1)) [0, -1, 1]
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height sage: K.<g> = QuadraticField(36865) sage: len(list(bdd_height(K,101))) # long time (4 s) 131
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^3 - 197*x + 39) sage: len(list(bdd_height(K, 200))) # long time (5 s) 451
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^6 + 2) sage: len(list(bdd_height(K,60,precision=100))) # long time (5 s) 1899
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^4 - x^3 - 3*x^2 + x + 1) sage: len(list(bdd_height(K,10,LLL=true))) 99

bdd_height_iq
(K, height_bound)¶ Compute all elements in the imaginary quadratic field \(K\) which have relative multiplicative height at most
height_bound
.The function will only be called with \(K\) an imaginary quadratic field.
If called with \(K\) not an imaginary quadratic, the function will likely yield incorrect output.
ALGORITHM:
This is an implementation of Algorithm 5 in [Doyle-Krumm].
INPUT:
- \(K\) - an imaginary quadratic number field
height_bound
- a real number
OUTPUT:
- an iterator of number field elements
EXAMPLES:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height_iq sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^2 + 191) sage: for t in bdd_height_iq(K,8): ....: print(exp(2*t.global_height())) 1.00000000000000 1.00000000000000 1.00000000000000 4.00000000000000 4.00000000000000 4.00000000000000 4.00000000000000 8.00000000000000 8.00000000000000 8.00000000000000 8.00000000000000 8.00000000000000 8.00000000000000 8.00000000000000 8.00000000000000
There are 175 elements of height at most 10 in \(QQ(\sqrt(-3))\):
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height_iq sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^2 + 3) sage: len(list(bdd_height_iq(K,10))) 175
The only elements of multiplicative height 1 in a number field are 0 and the roots of unity:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height_iq sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^2 + x + 1) sage: list(bdd_height_iq(K,1)) [0, a + 1, a, -1, -a - 1, -a, 1]
A number field has no elements of multiplicative height less than 1:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_height_iq sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^2 + 5) sage: list(bdd_height_iq(K,0.9)) []

bdd_norm_pr_gens_iq
(K, norm_list)¶ Compute generators for all principal ideals in an imaginary quadratic field \(K\) whose norms are in
norm_list
.The only keys for the output dictionary are integers n appearing in
norm_list
.The function will only be called with \(K\) an imaginary quadratic field.
The function will return a dictionary for other number fields, but it may be incorrect.
INPUT:
- \(K\) - an imaginary quadratic number field
norm_list
- a list of positive integers
OUTPUT:
- a dictionary of number field elements, keyed by norm
EXAMPLES:
In \(QQ(i)\), there is one principal ideal of norm 4, two principal ideals of norm 5, but no principal ideals of norm 7:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_norm_pr_gens_iq sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^2 + 1) sage: L = range(10) sage: bdd_pr_ideals = bdd_norm_pr_gens_iq(K, L) sage: bdd_pr_ideals[4] [2] sage: bdd_pr_ideals[5] [-g - 2, -g + 2] sage: bdd_pr_ideals[7] []
There are no ideals in the ring of integers with negative norm:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_norm_pr_gens_iq sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^2 + 10) sage: L = range(-5,-1) sage: bdd_pr_ideals = bdd_norm_pr_gens_iq(K,L) sage: bdd_pr_ideals {-5: [], -4: [], -3: [], -2: []}
Calling a key that is not in the input
norm_list
raises a KeyError:sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_norm_pr_gens_iq sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^2 + 20) sage: L = range(100) sage: bdd_pr_ideals = bdd_norm_pr_gens_iq(K, L) sage: bdd_pr_ideals[100] Traceback (most recent call last): ... KeyError: 100

bdd_norm_pr_ideal_gens
(K, norm_list)¶ Compute generators for all principal ideals in a number field \(K\) whose norms are in
norm_list
.INPUT:
- \(K\) - a number field
norm_list
- a list of positive integers
OUTPUT:
- a dictionary of number field elements, keyed by norm
EXAMPLES:
There is only one principal ideal of norm 1, and it is generated by the element 1:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_norm_pr_ideal_gens sage: K.<g> = QuadraticField(101) sage: bdd_norm_pr_ideal_gens(K, [1]) {1: [1]}
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_norm_pr_ideal_gens sage: K.<g> = QuadraticField(123) sage: bdd_norm_pr_ideal_gens(K, range(5)) {0: [0], 1: [1], 2: [-g - 11], 3: [], 4: [2]}
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import bdd_norm_pr_ideal_gens sage: K.<g> = NumberField(x^5 - x + 19) sage: b = bdd_norm_pr_ideal_gens(K, range(30)) sage: key = ZZ(28) sage: b[key] [157*g^4 - 139*g^3 - 369*g^2 + 848*g + 158, g^4 + g^3 - g - 7]

integer_points_in_polytope
(matrix, interval_radius)¶ Return the set of integer points in the polytope obtained by acting on a cube by a linear transformation.
Given an r-by-r matrix
matrix
and a real numberinterval_radius
, this function finds all integer lattice points in the polytope obtained by transforming the cube [-interval_radius,interval_radius]^r via the linear map induced bymatrix
.INPUT:
matrix
- a square matrix of real numbersinterval_radius
- a real number
OUTPUT:
- a list of tuples of integers
EXAMPLES:
Stretch the interval [-1,1] by a factor of 2 and find the integers in the resulting interval:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import integer_points_in_polytope sage: m = matrix([2]) sage: r = 1 sage: integer_points_in_polytope(m,r) [(-2), (-1), (0), (1), (2)]
Integer points inside a parallelogram:
sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import integer_points_in_polytope sage: m = matrix([[1, 2],[3, 4]]) sage: r = RealField()(1.3) sage: integer_points_in_polytope(m,r) [(-3, -7), (-2, -5), (-2, -4), (-1, -3), (-1, -2), (-1, -1), (0, -1), (0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (3, 7)]

sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import integer_points_in_polytope sage: m = matrix([[1.2,3.7,0.2],[-5.3,-.43,3],[1.2,4.7,-2.1]]) sage: r = 2.2 sage: L = integer_points_in_polytope(m,r) sage: len(L) 4143
If
interval_radius
is 0, the output should include only the zero tuple:sage: from sage.rings.number_field.bdd_height import integer_points_in_polytope sage: m = matrix([[1,2,3,7],[4,5,6,2],[7,8,9,3],[0,3,4,5]]) sage: integer_points_in_polytope(m,0) [(0, 0, 0, 0)]
