| megrez number field tables repackaged |
Dear PARI lovers,
I have repackaged the number field tables published by the Bordeaux
computational number theory group (H. Cohen and his team) around 1995.
http://pari.math.u-bordeaux1.fr/pub/pari/packages/nftables.tgz
The original tables are kept for reference at the same address
ftp://megrez.math.u-bordeaux.fr/pub/numberfields/ as before
(Judging from some index files, old data files corresponding to most
quadratic fields have apparently disappeared, and I couldnt't trace
them yet. So the data was generated anew.)
Compared to the original tables, the new version uses a single
(human-readable) file for a given signature, and stores only
* the field equation [ from which a bnf can be recomputed ],
* the field discriminant & class number, as well as the class group
decomposition as a product of cyclic groups (bnf.cyc) [ for quick filtering ].
N.B: Computing bnfinit & polgalois for all fields in the table takes
less than 2 hours in current PARI/GP, so there was no need to include that
in the tables. As a result, these are considerably smaller (1/10th the size)
More details in the README:
http://pari.math.u-bordeaux1.fr/pub/pari/packages/nftables/README
Please report any problem !
Have fun,
K.B.
P.S: A few wrong cyclic structures & class numbers (12 fields) have been
corrected.
